  2. If you are preparing to go solar, you are doing the right thing.

Apart from that, you can also have a lot of other benefits, so it’s time to make a big investment. But before you invest in solar energy, you should know several things. Taking all the information before you switch to solar is very significant to ensure a successful endeavor. In this blog, we are going to tell you about some crucial things you need to know before installing your solar system.

  3. Is Your House Suitable For Solar? The very first thing that you want to find out is the appropriateness of your house for solar. It may not be a greater predicament for somebody living in planned societies. If you live in city areas where there are no rules and controls concerning light and air space, your adjacent house may shadow your house’s solar potential. Similarly, you also require to check out your electricity bill and see if it’s hefty enough to shift to solar. If you use less than 300 units a month, then there may not be any need to switch to solar.

  4. Does Your Roof Need Repairs? Before installing a solar panel system on your roof, you need to see if the roof needs any repairs, especially if your house is pretty old. It may disrupt the whole installation of the system if it is not checked before the installation and any problem occurs after the system is installed.

  5. The Money You Will Save By Going Solar The third thing you need to know is the money you will save by going solar. You can simply calculate it by the following formula: The rate of the electricity bill that you pay x the size of your solar panel system For an elaborated account of how much money you can save, you can check out our Blog that entails details about the topic

  6. Which Panels/Inverters You Should Buy? • Keep one crucial thing in mind that you want the best quality for the best results. The essence of the system depends on the goods you choose to buy. There are the following tips you need to keep in mind while buying your solar panels, inverters, or batteries. • Most of the merchandise is made in China, and these are good. • Always review a comprehensive datasheet of the goods or talk to a solar expert before you purchase anything • Do not settle on less quality for saving a few bucks • Invest in the best because you are investing for the next 25 years.

  7. Which Type Of Solar System Do You Need? • The answer to this question lies in two things which are: • The system which you need • The system which you afford • While any of the three solar systems; off-grid, on-grid, and hybrid can be needed by the household, the most practical one is always the hybrid system as it can function as both the off-grid and the on-grid solar panel system. When it comes to price, the hybrid is the least affordable system as it requires the components of both the other solar systems. So, if you have the money, always go for maximum reliability. When a hybrid is out of the picture, you can prefer on-grid for Net Metering or off-grid for backup through batteries.

  8. How Important Is Connecting To The Grid? Connecting to the grid is significant as the Solar System only works during the day, and you cannot install batteries to provide you backup throughout the night. The grid acts as a supplement as well as a storage area for the solar system via net metering. Yes, net metering is a reality and does not matter how much of a miracle it may seem like but it is not always the right solution. When you are living in remote areas where there is no grid in proximity, installing an on-grid system is the stupidest investment one can make. The right choice would be to stay off the grid with a system of batteries that can provide you with the necessary backup.

  9. Why Professional Installation Is Necessary? There are countless DIY solar panel installation videos on YouTube that you can see to install your solar system without any expert help. Isn’t it good? No, it is not because it includes many risks such as improper installation, the hazard of electric shocks, fires, and even short circuits. You might end up spending more than you thought to have saved. Professional installation services guarantee that everything goes flawlessly well, and your investment is saved. Apart from that Premier Energy also offers free of cost after-sales services for a whole year.

  10. How Long Will Solar Panels Last? The general performance warranty of solar panels system is up to 25 years, but they usually work exceeding that. It can be said to be a lifetime investment, and your future generation is going to benefit from it. You can get the return on your investment within 4-5 years, and the rest of the time is free for you.

  11. Will Solar Panels Be Harmful For My Roof? No, in reality, the solar panels are beneficial for your roof as they also act as a protective shield against climatic conditions saving your roof from hailstorms, rain, and solar radiations. They also act as insulators providing insulation effects during cold and hot weather. So the solar panels will not harm your roof but will keep it protected thus increasing its stability for a longer time period.

  12. What Is The Right Time To Get Solar System? The whole year is a perfect time to get a solar system because they work fine in every climate. The weather does not bother the performance of a solar system a lot. However, as far as Pakistan is concerned, the prime time is the winters as it will help you get equipped for summers by installing the system and getting a net metering system installed. It usually takes up to 90 days to receive your net meter, and so if you get your solar system in winters, you will have it established before summer arrives. You will also have earned credits by that time. If you want to go solar, do so right now so you can start having the benefits of a solar system right away.
