Solar energy is a clean, renewable energy source that can help you reduce your reliance on fossil fuels and save money on your energy bills. But can solar work for any home?
The answer is yes! Solar panels can be installed on a variety of roof types, and they can also be installed on ground mounts if you don’t have enough roof space, or if your roof is not suitable.
If you’re interested in making solar work for your home, here are a few things to keep in mind:
- Assess your roof: Before going ahead with any solar panel installation, it’s important to have your roof assessed by a qualified professional. At SSU Renewables, an in-person, on-site survey is carried out prior to any job. This helps us determine if your roof is in good condition, is made of appropriate materials, is facing the right direction and if it can support the weight of solar panels.
- Choose the right solar panels: There are a variety of solar panels on the market, so it is important to choose the right ones for your needs. At SSU Renewables, we’ll discuss your needs, requirements and budget to find the right panels for you, whilst also taking on factors such as your roof type, the amount of sunlight your home receives, and your budget.
- Hire a qualified solar installer: it’s important that your solar panels are fitted by a qualified and accredited installer to ensure they’re installed correctly and safely.
