There are a number of things to consider when choosing a solar installer. The energy-efficient home rebate program in the USA has resulted in a rapid increase in the number of solar installations in USA homes. This rapid increase in solar installations has attracted some unscrupulous operators of "night flying" and other companies that have struggled to meet the demand. This article tries to inform all the owners about the criteria they must guarantee for their solar installer to answer before continuing the work.
The first and most important thing a homeowner must consider is the reputation and longevity of the company, which you would like the company to have existed for a long time. Companies in the solar industry that have only been around for 1 or 2 years may mean they are here for the government's return and do not intend to provide quality after-sales service.
Make sure the company also has current Clean Energy Council accreditation, which is legally required to install solar energy in the USA.
Make sure that the company is a registered entity and that there is an ABN or ACN number on your invoices and/or contracts.
Make sure that the solar installer you are considering is fully protected and insured and that you have taken out liability, professional indemnity and workers' compensation insurance.
Then you have to make sure that the company provides a quality product. Often what you are looking for is the TUV (German Certification) certification by investors and panels. Make sure the panels have triple bypass diodes, this will help when there is more than one-panel chain and there is shade.
You also want to make sure that you hire an electricity company, not just a sales company that sells solar energy. Hiring an electric company is your best option to ensure you get a quality installation. Electrical companies understand all the security protocols related to solar electricity and ensure that their work is of high quality and, above all, safe.
You can also make sure that you use the proper cable and electrical accessories to minimize system losses and maximize the amount of power generated by your system. Dealing directly with an electric utility also means that you know who to call if repairs are needed and are likely to continue to operate after the end of the solar premium, unlike the sales company.
