Factors That Need To Be Considered
When considering the installation of a solar system for your home, it’s important to ask yourself a few questions:
How much is my current electric bill?
What will my future electric needs be?
Will my electric needs increase or decrease in the future?
How long do I plan on living in my home?
What is the condition of my roof and what material is it made of?
The answers to these questions will provide valuable information as we help you navigate your way through your solar installation project. Providing these answers to Maui Sun Solar before beginning the design of a solar system will enable us to custom tailor a system that will be the best fit for a customers needs.
Selling Your Home
If you plan on selling your home within the next few years, it may not be the best time to invest in a renewable energy system. However, tax credits, home appreciation, and improved marketability may make the idea of installing a solar panel system much more attractive.
Current Electric Bill
If your current electric bill is not overly oppressive, ie. on the smaller side of the scale, it may not be necessary to invest in solar panels. If your current electric bill is on the larger side, it may be the perfect time to make the investment in a renewable energy system and become energy independent.
Consider Your Roof Type
Be sure to consider the type of roof you have on your home. Some roofing materials and types are not ideal for the installation of solar panels. If you’re not sure, let us know and we will be happy to assess your roof and make recommendations that will allow for the best solution regarding your solar project.
Please keep in mind that overhead shading factors should also be considered so that the sun capture of the system can be maximized.
