10 Reasons to Install Solar Panels in Your Home

1. Green – Solar is green. Green is the new black. Enough said.

2. Renewable – Solar is a renewable energy source. The sun is always present and even the cloudiest days have some sun power available for the solar panels to soak up.

3. Available Anywhere – Solar can be installed anywhere, even when what it is powering is in the shade. No matter what the circumstance, if there is a sunny spot nearby the solar can be installed to power something remotely installed.

4. Durable – A typical solar system has a lifetime of over thirty years. So when you install your solar panels the fear of durability should not be entertain because it comes with a guarantee. 

5. Eco-Friendly – No harmful gases come from a solar panel.

6. Cost Savings – Solar provides cost savings by not having to pay for electricity.

7. Easy Installation – Solar panels are easy to install, typically only needing a few bolts to hold them secure and some basic wiring.

8. Low Voltage – Solar utilizes lower voltage, typically 12 Volts DC, which means safer usage and installation.

9. Energy Savings – Solar utilizes lower powered items such as LED / CFL lamps, lower powered electronics, etc. that do not use as much power as standard electric systems.

10. Battery Backup – Most solar systems today utilize a battery backup that allows for three plus days storage of the power needed to keep the system running (depending on the size of your battery bank). That way, if the sun goes out, you will still have power for a couple days.
