Q. Is my house right for solar?
A. Not all homes qualify for solar. Having good sun exposure and a good roof are two key ingredients for going solar for your home or business. To get the most sun exposure, we would need a south-facing roof followed by an east and/or west-facing roof. A north-facing roof gets the least sun exposure, which is why we try to avoid those installations. One solution for that is tilting the panels to face south, or if you have enough space on the ground, we can do a ground mount.
The good news is solar panels do not need sunshine to get electricity; they get energy from the UV rays. Besides the benefit of eliminating fossil fuels, solar is considered the cheapest form of electricity. Energy companies have rising costs of an average of 4 percent every single year, and by going solar, you are eliminating that rising cost. You can either purchase the solar panels outright or finance. We offer finance options that require $0 money out of pocket with rates as low as .99 percent for qualifying candidates. We also offer lease options.
At Kenkay Solar, we take every house by its uniqueness and understand that each home’s consumption and patterns are different; we don’t use square footage but instead measure your electric usage to design a customize proposal unique to your family.
