I would still like to add solar panels to my building. What questions should I ask when choosing my solar provider?

There are seven questions we recommend you ask: 

  1. How long have you been installing solar projects under your current name? 
  2. Do you have a professional registered engineer sign off on all submittals?  -OR- Has your design been approved by a registered professional engineer?
  3. What kind of warranty do you offer? 
  4. How many installations have you completed? 
  5. If I consider a storage system, is there an alarm or venting system included to remove potentially harmful gases?
  6. What is the cost per size of capacity? (similar sized units can vary greatly in price)
  7. How long will these panels last, and how are they recycled after their useful life has ended?
