Yes, solar panels can significantly reduce your electricity bills from the moment they’re installed. Over time, these savings can add up to cover the cost of your solar system and more. With the rising costs of traditional electricity, the savings potential only grows, making solar an excellent investment for the future.

Connecticut homeowners have access to various federal and state incentives, rebates, and tax credits that make solar installations more affordable. These incentives are designed to reduce the upfront cost of going solar, accelerating your path to savings.

Installing solar panels can increase your home’s value by improving its energy efficiency and attractiveness to potential buyers who are interested in lower utility bills and sustainable living. Homes with solar installations often sell faster and at higher prices than those without.

It depends on the condition of your roof. Suppose your roof is near the end of its life or in poor condition. In that case, replacing it before installing solar panels is recommended to avoid the additional cost of removing and reinstalling the panels when you do replace the roof. A solar professional can assess your roof’s condition and advise you accordingly.

With net metering, any excess electricity your solar panels produce is sent back to the grid, and you’ll receive credits on your utility bill. These credits can offset the cost of electricity you use from the grid when your solar system isn’t producing enough to meet your needs, ensuring you get the most out of your solar investment.

Absolutely! Solar energy has proven to be a reliable source of power for homes across Connecticut. Modern solar panels are highly efficient and designed to capture sunlight even on cloudy days. Plus, with net metering and solar battery storage options, you can ensure your home has a steady supply of electricity, day and night.

Solar panels are designed to last for 25-30 years or more, with minimal decreases in efficiency over time. Most systems require little maintenance, and many manufacturers offer warranties that guarantee their performance for decades, ensuring a long-term, worry-free source of clean energy.

Typically, grid-tied solar systems do not operate during power outages for safety reasons. However, if you opt for a solar battery storage system, you can store excess energy to power your home independently when the grid goes down, providing peace of mind and continuous electricity.
