FAQs
Why should I choose a local Robbins-based installer instead of a national solar company?
Working with a Robbins-based team means technicians know the town’s zoning rules, permit process, roof styles, and local utility interconnection requirements. A nearby crew can perform site visits quickly, respond faster if a service call is needed, and has established relationships with the Town of Robbins inspection department and Randolph EMC/Duke Energy for smoother approvals.
How much sunlight does Robbins receive and is it really enough for solar panels?
Robbins averages about 4.7–5.0 peak sun-hours per day over the year—well above the threshold for profitable solar. Modern photovoltaic (PV) modules can harvest energy even on partly cloudy winter days. Our design software uses 30-year NOAA irradiance data specific to your roof’s azimuth and tilt to predict annual production within ±3 % accuracy.
What incentives or rebates are available for solar installations in Robbins?
Homeowners may claim the 30 % Federal Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC) on the total system cost. North Carolina allows property tax exclusion on the added home value from solar. If you’re a Duke Energy Progress customer, net metering credits excess generation at the retail rate until July 1 2027. We also help businesses secure accelerated MACRS depreciation and utility performance incentives where applicable.
How long does the entire installation process take from contract to commissioning?
A typical residential project in Robbins proceeds as follows: (1) Site audit & engineering—1 week, (2) Permit submission & utility interconnection approval—2-4 weeks, (3) On-site installation—1-3 days for most roofs, (4) Town inspection—within 3–5 days of install, (5) Utility meter swap & PTO (permission to operate)—1-2 weeks. End-to-end, expect 5-8 weeks depending on permitting queues and utility scheduling.
What warranties and maintenance services do you provide?
We include a 25-year manufacturer’s warranty on panels, a 12- to 25-year warranty on inverters (model dependent), and a 10-year workmanship warranty covering roof penetrations and electrical labor. Our Robbins service team offers an optional monitoring & maintenance plan that includes annual performance reports, remote fault alerts, and on-site corrective visits at no extra labor charge.
Will a solar array keep my power on during Robbins’ occasional outages?
Standard grid-tied systems shut down during outages for lineman safety. To gain backup power, you can pair your array with a battery storage system or a hybrid inverter with generator input. We design tailored solutions that can power essentials (refrigerator, lights, Wi-Fi) or whole-home loads, and our team helps you size storage based on average outage duration and budget.
