The decision to change from conventional power to solar energy begins with two things – a copy of the home owner’s electric costs and an assessment from a rep of a solar firm.

The electric costs will act as a standard of the usual intake that the homeowner consumes on a monthly basis. In addition, this will work as a determining factor to compare solar power consumption versus standard power usage.

Throughout the consultation, our specialist will get more details regarding the residential property, the house owner’s goals, way of living, as well as future prepare for the home. From there, our expert will develop a proposition that will discuss to the house owners the advantages and rewards offered should they continue in investing in solar power. We will also discuss the alternatives and advantages of purchasing or leasing options.

Once the client has made a decision to go through the process, the following step is to assist the client in getting approval for financing (if required). Contracts and extra documentations will also be prepared.

Application for the Building Permit will be pepared by our engineers after carrying out an initial residence analysis. As soon as the building is ready, instalation of the solar power system will begin. A timeline of 6-8 weeks is expected to cover the installment of the solar energy system. A Permission to Operate is needed prior to the solar energy system activation.

Preferably, the cost of solar will be less than or equal to what you are paying currently for the same amount of power consumed by your electric energy firm. If you choose to switch to a solar energy system, expect to have two bills. Nonetheless, the sum of the 2 expenses is anticipated to be equal to, or perhaps less than your existing power bill.

Going solar safeguards you and your household from future electrical rate increases as it provides a foreseeable expenditure monthly. You can exchange your energy costs for your solar prices while conserving cash at the same time.

Whether you get a loan for your solar power system or you pay in cash, the long-lasting advantages are absolutely worth the price. Your expenditure for electric power will just be the basic service fee for the utilities electrical meter on your building. This is just a fraction of the expense of what you are paying the electrical company before. Keep in mind that even if you go solar, you will still need to be attached to the utility because you need the meter to make solar energy work.

When the sun shines onto a solar panel, photons from the sunshine rays are absorbed by the cells in the panel, which creates an electromagnetic field throughout the layers and sets off electrical power for circulation. The solar panels produce DC (Direct Current) while most buildings utilize A/C (Alternate Current). So how does solar work? Having an inverter is the answer.

Solar power systems make use of an inverter that transforms the DC power to AC power so it can be used to supply energy. Typical solar energy systems take advantage of a single standard inverter to transform existing. Sunpower by NYSSF utilizes mini inverters on the back of each solar panel that gives a much more secure and warrantied solar energy system. Microinverters are also suggested for property owners staying in the northeast where color, snow, and leaves on the solar panels need to be thought about.

The solar panels produce sufficient solar energy to address the energy demands of a residential property. The excess electrical power created will not be propounded waste; it is designed to return to the electric grid by turning the electrical meter in reverse. This process is substantially helpful for solar power owners due to the fact that it will be 100% credited back to your system.

When the solar panels are not creating electric power during the night, the residential or commercial property will get power from the grid where your system made throughout the day is conserved. From Springtime thru Autumn, your solar power system will make even much more power than your household needs.

The additional created solar power will gather everyday which will help build credit scores on your utility account. Proprietors of solar energy systems will appreciate the benefits of this “carryover” electricity throughout the winter, when the production of the solar system is shortened as a result of atmosphere changes. This procedure is called “web metering” and this is just how solar energy operates in NYS residences.

The solar installment process begins with a Technical Home Evaluation (THA) or house analysis. Our professional will check your house, take images and obtain sunlight evaluations of the roof utilizing our drone. They will check and take photos of the attic room space and the electrical circuit box. As soon as all the required details are accumulated, it will be sent to our engineers for the drafting or designing stage of the solar power system. The engineers will take into account both the electric code and building ordinance of the state. 

The main installation starts with styling the rails on the roof covering. The rails are attached to the roof and the panels are connected to the rails. The rails are affixed straight to your residence’s rafters using stainless-steel lag screws. The steel and aluminum used for installation are sourced from the finest materials which are warrantied for 25 years. These consist of labor and all components from Sunpower by NYSSF.

The solar panels include microinverters secured to the rails that make the solar power system part of your home. All circuitries are put under the solar panels where feasible. We take satisfaction in the amazing visual allures of our output.

Sunpower by New York City State Solar Ranch has been acknowledged as a “Gold Status Quality Solar Installer” by New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) for the past 4 years. We take great pride in this acknowledgment mainly because only 1 of 8 installers has landed this award.
