Solar panels are on the rise which is a good thing for just about everyone—consumers get more control over their energy at a reasonable cost, installers get to do what they love and get paid doing it, and the planet gets some relief when so many people take advantage of alternative sources of energy. As a result, we’re also seeing more solar installers pop up than ever. The competition may keep prices reasonable and give you more options, but it’s also important that you are able to make informed decisions. Let’s take a look at three things to look for when you’re looking for a solar installer.
What Experience Do They Have?
How much experience as a solar installer do they have? Remember that solar is still a relatively young industry but there are other kinds of work that a solar installer can have experience with that shows they are ready for the job. Someone who is experienced with roofing work may be able to get the job done right as many of the skills translate over. At the end of the day, what matters the most is that they are licensed, insured, and certified so you know you are protected.
Getting Incentivized
There are all kinds of incentives for installing solar panels. A good solar installer should be aware of rebates and incentives at all levels and should be able to help you navigate them to get what you need. Make sure you ask about this when shopping around and be sure that they demonstrate knowledge of the subject.
Find Out About Payments
It’s important to be clear as to whether or not you’re purchasing your panels or leasing them. Purchasing them outright may seem significantly more expensive but it’s actually much more inexpensive in the long. Be aware of what the solar installer offers and make sure you’re on the same page, as you need to find a solution that works best for you and your family.
