Compare Solar Installers PinelandsLocal Factors in Pinelands
- Shading from trees. Established trees in Pinelands shade roofs for part of the day. Good string design keeps one shaded panel from pulling down the rest.
- Bigger homes. Pools, heat pumps and larger households usually need an 8kW or 10kW system rather than 5kW.
- 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.
