Additionally, federal tax incentives and potential state rebates can further reduce installation costs, making solar energy an economically attractive option.
How much does a solar installation typically cost?

On average, residential solar panel systems in Farragut can range from $15,000 to $25,000 before tax incentives and rebates. It's important to get a customized quote based on your specific energy needs and roof structure.
How long does it take to install a solar panel system?
The entire process, from initial consultation to final installation, generally takes between four to eight weeks. This includes site assessment, permitting, ordering equipment, and actual installation. The physical installation itself typically takes one to three days, depending on the system size and complexity.
Will my solar panels work during a power outage?
Standard grid-tied solar panel systems do not provide power during an outage for safety reasons. However, installing a solar battery storage system can ensure you have backup power during outages. These systems store excess energy generated during the day for use when the grid is down or during nighttime.
How do solar panels affect my roof?
When installed correctly, solar panels do not damage your roof and can even provide benefits such as protecting the roof from weather-related wear. Professional installers take care to ensure that panels are securely and safely attached without compromising the roof's integrity. Additionally, many solar panels come with warranties that cover any potential roof damage.
What maintenance is required for solar panels?
Solar panels require very little maintenance. Regular cleaning to remove dirt and debris and occasional inspections to ensure all components are functioning correctly is usually sufficient. Most systems come with monitoring equipment that alerts you to any issues, and many installation companies offer maintenance packages to handle any necessary work.
