FAQs
What are the benefits of installing solar panels in Knoxville?
Installing solar panels in Knoxville offers several benefits, including reducing your electricity bills, decreasing your carbon footprint, and increasing the value of your home. Given Knoxville's sunny climate, solar panels can efficiently generate a significant portion of your electricity needs. Additionally, rebates and tax incentives can make the initial investment more affordable, leading to long-term savings.
How does the solar panel installation process work?
The solar panel installation process typically starts with a consultation where we assess your energy needs and perform a site analysis. Next, we design a custom solar system tailored to your property. Once approved, our team will handle all necessary permits and documentation before scheduling the installation. The installation itself usually takes one to three days. After installation, the system will be inspected and connected to the grid, at which point it can start generating electricity for your home.
Are there incentives or rebates available for solar panel installation in Knoxville?
Yes, there are various incentives and rebates available for solar panel installation in Knoxville. Residents can take advantage of the federal solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which offers a significant percent credit on the cost of the system. Local utility companies may also offer rebates to incentivize solar adoption. We recommend checking with state and local programs as well, as incentives can change over time.
How much maintenance do solar panels require once installed?
Solar panels require very little maintenance once installed. Generally, they only need an annual inspection to ensure everything is functioning correctly. Cleaning may be necessary if there is a significant buildup of dirt or debris; however, natural rainwater often takes care of most cleaning. Our team offers follow-up maintenance services to ensure your solar system operates efficiently for years to come.
How long do solar panels last?
Solar panels are designed to last for 25 to 30 years but can continue producing electricity beyond that period, albeit with slightly reduced efficiency. Most manufacturers offer warranties guaranteeing performance for 20 to 25 years, ensuring your investment is protected. After the warranty period, you can expect the panels to operate at approximately 80-85% of their original efficiency.
Can I install solar panels if my roof is shaded during parts of the day?
Even if your roof is shaded during parts of the day, you may still benefit from solar panels. Our experts conduct thorough site evaluations to determine the best positioning and equipment for your solar system. Additionally, technologies like microinverters or power optimizers can help mitigate the impact of shade on individual panels, maximizing the system's overall efficiency. We will work with you to design a solar solution that meets your needs and maximizes energy production.
