To maximize endurance and efficiency, solar panels must be mounted onto a solid structure and face east, west or south and have little to no shade from trees or other buildings.

The most common method of installation is to mount the panels to the roof with a standard slope. Solar panels can be mounted on a flat roof however the installation requires additional expertise that may add a little to the cost. The solar panels can be mounted to a pole if tree cover is an issue, but the ideal situation is to mount them to the sunny side of your roof or if you have some available open space, ground mounted systems are common and affordable as well.

Solar Installation & Maintenance

Fortunately solar panels require almost no maintenance as a normal amount of wind and rain is all that is typically required to keep the panels operating at near 100% of their rated efficiency. The system does continue to generate power during inclement weather albeit at a slightly lower rate during the actual rain. Solar panels do not generate any electricity while they are covered in snow, however because the panels are strategically placed in areas of the highest available sunlight, snow tends to melt quickly with no maintenance required from the home-owner. Modern solar panels are manufactured to withstand lighting strikes, high winds and hail up to nearly an inch.
