When choosing any solar energy system for your home there are some basic questions that must first be answered. Please find them below with our answers:
1.) IS YOUR SOLAR PANEL INSTALLER A CERTIFIED, REPUTABLE PROFESSIONAL?
To ensure that your system is installed safely, to industry standards and for the guarantee and lifetime of your system you should always check if your installer is a certified, reputable professional.
Always ask if they are a licensed and insured solar energy specialist trained for residential or commercial solar power installation.

Your roof must meet the following requirements:

3.) IS A SOLAR ENERGY SYSTEM WORTH THE INVESTMENT?
With your own solar energy system, you can produce not only the energy of the future and make an active contribution to climate protection, but you are also choosing an investment with one of the highest yields:
- Rising energy prices will be in the past: You will produce your own electricity and use it for your own consumption.
- Look forward to an additional income: Whether you use the electricity yourself, or feed it back into the public power grid.
The variety of subsidy and financing options make a solar energy system a financially attractive option.
