It’s true that solar panels won’t generate as much electricity on a cloudy day as it will on a sunny day, but your solar panels will definitely continue to generate a moderately reduced amount of electricity on even the cloudiest day. Although we can’t control the weather, our designs incorporate past weather models for over a decade to accurately account for less sunny days.
Quality solar installations are designed to be durable and virtually maintenance-free. Choosing the right solar partner is vital to ensure there’s nothing to worry about for years to come. Although many companies boast a production guarantee through the manufacturer, 843 Solar goes beyond with an industry-leading 25-year production and parts warranty on all panels, inverters, and racking.
Solar panels are less expensive now than they have ever been, and many homeowners see savings from the very first month. Most are unaware that there are federal, state, and utility incentives available that allow families to go solar for zero out-of-pocket. When you factor in increased value of your house, you’ll find that solar panels will start saving you money sooner than you ever thought possible.
As your panels convert sunshine to electricity, power flows through your home like normal. Excess energy is sent back to your utility company and in most utilities, you get to pull that excess back at no cost. This means a solar system can actually provide electricity 24 hours per day, even when the sun isn’t shining. Batteries are available for emergency purposes or for utilities that don’t participate in net metering.
Not at all. Today’s solar systems will power all your home’s electrical systems including lights, cooling and heating, and all your appliances. Systems are designed to blend easily into both modern homes as well as those built years ago. Your home will operate just like normal, and your appliances will never know the difference.
Who doesn’t want a new lower and locked in power bill? By going solar, you start saving immediately by producing your own power. This means you no longer are a slave to the expensive, increasing rates from your utility company. Solar energy is cheaper and more efficient than electricity you currently buy from the utility company.
As soon as you flip the switch, you begin producing your own power. Any excess power your home doesn’t use will be sent back to your utility company. Your electric meter will run backwards. You will feed excess energy to the utility company during the day and then receive it back during the nighttime, at no cost.
Excess energy produced by your solar panels during the day is sent to the utility grid. You receive the power back at night after the sun has gone down. 843 Solar is also very excited to offer battery options for customers who would like to store some of their own energy as well.
Solar panels require very little maintenance. You don’t even have to wash your panels. Normally natural patterns of wind and rainfall will do most of the work. Each customer also receives a 25-year manufacturer warranty and production guarantee, as well as an industry-leading 10-year workmanship warranty.
If the power goes out in your area, systems tied to the grid go out as well. It’s not safe to send power into the grid when workers are attempting to fix a power outage problem. Adding a home battery can give you a limited amount of power to specific items within your home.
You will receive one bill from your utility company and you will receive one bill for your solar panels. Your new combined bill to be much less than you’re currently paying for your energy.
