D.I.Y. Solar? Better Think Twice

Going solar has become very popular in the last couple of years. It has been here for a while but the sudden interest has had many people go online to learn more about it. And with the amount of information on the internet, a lot of homeowners turn online and see a lot of DIY solar projects including designs, sizes, suppliers, and instructions!


People think that it’s just as simple as sourcing materials and building the racks on your roof to put the panels in and voila! You can now start getting solar power! But there is a reason why solar installation companies are rapidly growing – expertise! Keep in mind that one DIY mistake can be very costly.


A certified solar energy provider will provide you with the peace of mind of your solar system working optimally for decades. Partnering with a solar company means your insurance company can cover systems that may not be possible when you do DIY. Manufacturers of panels will honor your warranty. And more importantly, you may be eligible for more rebates from your utility!


Still thinking about DIY? Let’s walk through some of the processes and where you might have issues.




System Sizing


Many information online says that this is easy, just take your utility bill and size the system to create as much energy. However, if you system incorrectly, you can cut your ROI in half and take a much longer time for the system to pay for itself. You also need to understand how shading and sunlight computation works.



Design


How do you plan to invert power? What kind of racking are you planning to do? What about surge protector, that’s very important? Are you using battery storage? What type of panel are you using and what’s your roof plan to make sure they’re properly supported?


Then there are more concerns about permits and actual installations. You get the idea. It’s a whole lot of work. At the end of the day, we want the best way to harness the energy of the sun. If you have the patience, confidence, and you’re ready to face the probable consequences of DIY, then you can absolutely go ahead! We’re just giving you an option to explore by partnering with a solar company.
