Solar Panel Installation

There are several options available once you have decided what type of panels and where to buy them. Solar panel installation can either
be done by us or there are companies that will install them for you. Commercial installation will usually run around one thousand + dollars.
This is mainly dependant on the size of the job.

Solar Panel Installation Options

Roof mounting is very common and requires securing the panels through your roof into the rafters. Stainless steel
bolts are used to secure your panels and must be inserted into a rafter so you have to be able to locate your rafters.
If you are unsure about this, then a company hired to do this might be your best bet.

Another option is to ground mount your system. The panels are attached to poles and cemented into the ground.
Ground mounting gives versatility as to the type of system you can use. The first is a system known as an
active solar tracking unit that comes with an optical mechanism to optimize the unit with the travel path of the
sun. The static mount is as suggested and is merely aligned to the sun in a maximum exposure area. Last is
what is termed a passive solar tracker which is less costly that the active type. Liquid is warmed by the sun to
use gravity to enhance your system to follow the sun.

The final option is thin film panel gluing. These are less efficient than the other methods, but require no breach
of your roof by using stainless steel bolts through it. The panels are glued onto your roof and work best in
high temperature areas of the country. Think desert.
