Benefits of Calling a Local Solar Installer

Benefits of Calling a Local Solar Installer

Solar panel installation reduces reliance on the grid, lowers carbon footprints, and increases a property’s worth. EmPower Solar offers solar installation services on Long Island and in Greater New York City. Here are the benefits of calling local solar installers.

Personalized Services

Local solar installers offer a more hands-on and customized approach to designing and installing your solar energy system. Our certified installers can visit your property in person to conduct on-site assessments. The process involves inspecting your roof or property, taking measurements, and assessing the orientation and shading to determine the best placement for solar panels. 

Local installers work closely with you to understand your unique energy needs and consumption patterns. Our team can review your energy bill history to determine the right system size to meet your needs. Energy analysis allows the proposed solar solution to be tailored to your energy requirements.

Knowledge of Local Regulations

Building codes and regulations can vary from town to town and change over time. EmPower Solar‘s team of installers understands specific building codes and regulations in the areas we serve. Knowledge of local regulations helps the team effectively design and install your solar system to meet the codes.

Most towns require permits for solar installations. Local installers are familiar with the specific permitting processes in your area and can help manage solar permits for you. The process includes preparing and submitting the necessary permit applications and ensuring that they are filed correctly.

Familiarity with Local Weather and Environment

Local installers are familiar with the local climate and weather patterns, including seasonal differences in sunlight availability. We can assess the number of sunny days, cloud cover, and daily sunlight hours, which influence the design of your solar system. In areas with frequent cloud cover, slightly larger systems compensate for reduced daily sunlight.

When designing and installing solar panel racking and mounting systems, local installers consider wind speeds and storm patterns specific to your area. Proper anchoring and design are used to safeguard solar panels against damage during severe winds and storms. Experienced installers can design the mounting system in places with snowy winters to allow for easy snow shedding.

Acquaintance with Local Suppliers

Qualified local installers are well-informed about the quality and reliability of products from local suppliers. We can recommend high-quality components, such as solar panels, inverters, and racking systems, that perform well in your region. 

Working with local suppliers often means shorter lead times for equipment and components. This can speed up the installation process for your solar project to stay on schedule. If you experience any issues with your solar system components, local installers can help facilitate warranty claims with local suppliers.
