Compare Solar Installers ClaremontLocal Factors in Claremont
- Older electrics. Older distribution boards often need upgrading to take solar and a backup circuit. Ask each installer to price DB work as a separate line.
- Daytime businesses. Shops, offices and light industry in Claremont use most power during daylight, which makes commercial solar straightforward to size.
- Flats and complexes. Roof space is shared and body corporate consent is needed. Many owners start with a battery backup system and add panels if roof space allows.
- Shading from trees. Established trees in Claremont shade roofs for part of the day. Good string design keeps one shaded panel from pulling down the rest.
