With electricity prices going up all the time, and global warming seemingly outstripping the predictions of scientists, there’s never been a better time to join the solar revolution. Solar Panel installation doesn’t have to be difficult, and a professional solar company is able to plan your configuration, access rebates, and connect your system to the grid. Let’s take a look at the five steps you need to take to install a solar power system in your home or business.
1. Doing your research
Before you speak with a solar panel provider for your Sydney company or property, it’s important to do your research. While solar providers are very knowledgeable about all aspects of the industry, it’s always a good idea to have a basic understanding of what you’re getting into. For example, while off-grid solar systems are available for rural properties, most Australian homes will still connect their solar panels to the electricity grid. It’s also important to have a basic idea of panel sizes and configurations, as everything from a 5 kW to a 100 kW system is considered standard for Australian homes and businesses.
2. Choosing a reliable solar power company
The solar company you decide to work with will have a huge impact on your overall experience. Solar panel installation demands a professional approach, which is why Arise Solar, who are able to source quality panels and configure integrated systems to meet your energy demands, are so popular with clients. For households located in Sydney, it’s a good idea to reach out to a dedicated residential solar panel Sydney company. We use Tier 1 solar panels that have been manufactured by leading companies and only work with experienced solar panel installation professionals.
3. Engineering inspection
Once you sign a contract with Arise Solar, one of our engineers will visit your property to carry out an inspection. Along with checking the electrical status of your home, we will look at the condition of your roof and connection panel. As the leading solar panel company in Sydney, we leave nothing to chance when it comes to the performance and safety of our products. Logistical documentation is required prior to installation in order to meet local council regulations.
4. Permits and rebates
In order to make your solar system purchase as affordable as possible, it’s important to access all relevant state and federal solar incentives. Current incentives include the federal ITC, PACE initiatives, federal and state rebates, and solar renewable energy certificates (SRECs). Our experienced team is familiar with all local and state restrictions and current permits and rebates. If you’re looking for a comprehensive solar service, Arise Solar is here to help.
5. Installation and interconnection
When the time comes to choose your solar panels and inverter, we can help you choose the best brands and ideal capacity for your home or business. The installation process begins by preparing your roof, and electrical wiring is then installed along with racking systems, solar panels, and additional technology like the inverter and metering system. Turning on your system and connecting it to the grid is an exciting time, and our friendly team are on hand to carry out tests to ensure maximum performance and efficiency.
