FAQs
How do solar panels work?
Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) cells. When sunlight hits these cells, it excites electrons, creating an electric current. This current is then routed through an inverter to convert it into usable power for your home. Any excess electricity may be sent to the grid, depending on your utility company’s policies.
Is Fountain City a good place for solar power?
Yes. Fountain City typically experiences a respectable number of sunny days each year, making it a viable location for solar energy. Factors such as your roof’s direction, shading from nearby trees or buildings, and the overall condition of your roof also determine the suitability of your home or business for solar power.
What incentives are available for solar installations in Fountain City?
In Fountain City, you may qualify for federal tax credits that cover a portion of your solar installation cost. Additionally, some local utilities offer net metering, allowing you to earn credits on your bill for excess energy produced by your system. Incentives can vary, so check local and state programs for additional deals or rebates.
How long does it take to install a solar system?
A typical residential installation generally takes one to three days of on-site work, depending on the size and complexity. Permitting and inspections, however, can extend the overall timeline, often taking several weeks to complete. Once all permits are approved, installation schedules are set, and the process moves quickly.
Do solar panels require a lot of maintenance?
Solar panels require minimal maintenance. Regularly clearing off debris, dirt, or snow helps keep them at maximum efficiency. Many homeowners opt for periodic professional inspections to ensure electrical components are working safely and to check for any damage or deterioration of the panels.
How do warranties and performance guarantees typically work?
Most solar panel manufacturers offer warranties lasting 20–25 years, covering product defects and performance guarantees that ensure the panels produce power at a certain percentage of their rated capacity. Installation companies also often provide separate workmanship warranties, covering any potential issues with the system’s setup, wiring, or roof penetrations.
