Where to Put Solar on your Roof
There are several things to consider when going solar, like which panels to get, how many to get and where to put them once you’ve purchased them. One of the principal considerations to make is panel orientation. Panel orientation is key to maximizing the efficiency of your solar panels. The more sun your panels get, the more energy they’ll be producing, which is why it’s crucial to understand the best place to have your panels installed. Fortunately, our professional solar installers at SolarTech have all the knowledge and experience you need to ensure your panels are installed in the most optimal way.
Panel Orientation
Solar panels in the northern hemisphere receive the most sun year-round when they are south facing. Positioning your panels on the part of your roof that is south facing is the most optimal way to maximize your panel’s efficiency, and consequently your savings. This can sometimes be difficult to achieve with roof-mounted solar because you’re limited to the amount of roof space you have. Fortunately, our solar professionals are experts at sizing systems and mapping out exactly where they need to go on your roof to make the most of your system.
Our solar professionals use advanced technology to accurately measure your roof and calculate just how many panels you need and where they need to go to offset your energy use and save you money. If you’re interested in speaking with someone from SolarTech about going solar, click here.
Panel Angles
Installing your panels facing south is just one part of maximizing the efficiency of your system. Angling your panels correctly is also a major aspect of boosting efficiency and savings. A general rule of thumb is that panels need to be titled between a 30- and 40-degree angle. We do this to ensure your panels receive sunlight at a perpendicular angle, producing the most energy.
