Where to get your solar panels and how to get the most out of them
Here are the most overlooked details when purchasing solar panels
So, you’ve decided to install solar panels at home, but now what? Without the right suppliers and the correct advice it can be very difficult to know how to make your solar panels work for you. However, with the help of companies like Go Solar the process can be made much easier.
Here is a rundown of everything that needs to be known about solar panels and which ones to invest in.
A common mistake
The first mishap that people make when installing solar panels is to buy more than are necessary, or fewer than are needed. The same goes for other components such as the inverter, which can fall short of power over time.
Does the house have a heat pump? Is the family planning to buy an electric car that can increase consumption? A detailed sizing of the installation to cover the current and future energy needs of the home requires technical advice and a study prior to installation.
In short, it is crucial to adjust the capacity of the panels to the energy consumption in your house. Moreover, you must take into account the quality and efficiency of the photovoltaic components to avoid problems such as premature degradation of the panels.
Licences and subsidies
A building permit is a must when you decide to install solar panels. The process is simple, so do not worry, as work can begin once you have a responsible declaration.
As for subsidies, new panels no longer qualify for direct aid, but they do qualify for reductions in personal income tax. Until December 2024, a 30% deduction in the income tax return is maintained. And if the municipality allows it, rebates can also be requested in the IBI.
How your solar panels will look
Another aspect that is often overlooked is the aesthetic element of a solar panel installation. Choosing materials and colours that match the home, taking into account where the steel tubes go and ensuring that they have discreet finishes, is all very important.
Specialised companies are responsible for integrating the panels not only with the proper orientation to maximise production, but also respecting the appearance of the house and the aesthetic preferences of the owners.
Rates and energy consumption
Selecting the correct electricity rate is also a matter of adjusting the installation to current and expected consumption. Many things need to be taken into account, such as if you have a pool and what is the number of hours that a purifier operates.
In addition, seasonal variability in energy production must be taken into account. In winter, cloudy days reduce production, while in summer, excessive heat can affect the efficiency of electronic components.
As for surpluses, the marketing company will already be notified by the distributor that the CUP of the home has surpluses and, as the metres are bidirectional, they will be able to account for them.
Surplus collection
Surplus collection in self-consumption installations has been greatly streamlined in recent months: in more and more communities, owners begin to receive them on their bills between 30 and 50 days after installation.
In addition, many modern installations, such as Huawei inverters, are associated with a mobile application that allows real-time monitoring of solar panel production and home energy consumption.
After-sales service and maintenance
Solar panels do not generally require maintenance during the first year.
After the second year, after-sales service becomes more important. Companies usually offer annual preventive maintenance that includes cleaning the panels and checking all the electrical components to ensure they are working properly.
Installing solar panels at home is an investment that, with the right advice and careful planning, can offer economic as well as environmental benefits. If you are interested, do not hesitate to get in touch with a reputed solar panel installation company like Go Solar as they will provide excellent service, and care for you as you invest in green energy.
