Misconceptions About Home Solar Energy in Sacramento

Misconceptions About Home Solar Energy in Sacramento

 Misconceptions About Home Solar Energy in Sacramento

There are so many Misconceptions About Home Solar Energy in Sacramento, Ca. Here is what WE KNOW to be true about five solar myths we frequently hear. Solar photovoltaics are a great way to save money while producing green energy for residential or commercial use, and we want as many people as possible to know the truth about solar energy as we work our way to a brighter, greener future.

Solar Panels are Not Affordable

This may have been the case in years past. However, in recent years Home solar energy in Sacramento, Ca has become increasingly affordable. Not only are there a wide range of financing options available to you, there are also various tax incentives, including the Federal Solar Tax Credit which allows you to receive 30% of the total cost of your solar system back on your taxes. Additionally, California is one of several states to have net metering in place, the system in which your utility credits you at retail rates for the excess electricity you generate and feed back into the grid. Talk to your solar panel installer about the financing options available to you.

Solar Panels Will Destroy My Roof

If solar panels are installed PROPERLY they will not damage your roof at all. In fact, a competent solar panel installer will be sure to take care of your roof. Solar panels can actually help protect the areas of your roof located beneath them from damage by hail, wind, and light.

Solar Panels Require a Lot of Maintenance

Solar panels require very little maintenance. They do not have any moving parts, which makes them highly reliable. A good rinse with a plain, old garden hose a few times a year should be all that is necessary. 

Solar Panels Will Power My Home When the Electricity Goes Out

This is not true for grid-tied homes: when the grid loses power, your home will also lose power. It is unsafe for your home to be generating power while workers may be making repairs, so your inverter will shut your system down. However, if you have installed a battery backup for your grid-tied system you can keep your lights on during a power outage.

Solar Panels Do Not Work when the Sun Isn’t Shining

Solar panels will still work when it is cloudy or foggy, because unlike shade, some sunlight still gets through to reach your roof. Really heavy clouds can decrease panel output, but light cloud cover will not make much of an impact. Believe it or not, solar panels will produce slightly more in cooler temperatures than in warmer ones.

These are just a few of the Misconceptions About Home Solar Energy in Sacramento.

How Solar Can Put You in Control of Your Energy Costs

If you are tired of skyrocketing electric bills, it may be time to learn how solar can put YOU in control of your energy costs and how much of your own electricity to produce, and lock-in that rate for decades. Depending on factors such as available surface area, shading and of course budget, you can install enough panels to produce all or a portion of your energy.

Solar panel systems will definitely save you money and protect you from increasing utility costs. There are a lot of reasons why homeowners are switching to solar, but improving the environment and reducing electricity costs are the big ones. Many people are aware that solar is a great home efficiency upgrade and are eager to reduce their carbon footprint while also increasing their property value.

Did you know there may be thousands of dollars available to you to help lower your utility bill in California? Reducing your power demand will save you thousands on your Solar system. Before you install solar wouldn’t you like to see if you qualify for these funds?

Many people don’t know about these local, city, county, state, and utility incentives. Using Energy Conservation Incentive Programs, you will save thousands of dollars! Energy Savings California can help you find these Government and utility incentives.

We have helped hundreds of families reduce their energy wastage using these extraordinary programs. This has saved many local families a lot of money before they installed solar.

Reducing your energy wastage before installing solar also means that you will not need to purchase as many solar panels to power your home. We want to help you “Reduce Before You Produce”. Schedule a free home energy audit today!

If you would like more information and to see how we can help you find these programs in your local area call 916 955-3374. Or visit our website at www.energysavingscalifornia.com.

An Exterior Remodel for Your Folsom Home can dramatically increase your property’s value while maximizing curb appeal. Many homeowners in Folsom consider an exterior remodel in order to beautify their property, but there are more than aesthetic benefits. Exterior remodels often include new siding, windows or both—which increases insulation while simultaneously decreasing energy consumption. Ultimately, new windows and siding translate to lower utility bills year-round. Warm air stays inside in the winter and cool air is trapped inside in the summer. At Energy Savings California, only the best products and expert installation is offered.

Nothing packs a bigger punch than an exterior remodel for improved curb appeal. Bear in mind that “curb appeal” is not just important when selling a home. It also increases the value of the overall neighborhood and serves as a first impression for guests and passersby. However, the most important person it impresses is the homeowner. Little compares to pulling up to your home after a long day and taking in your gorgeous property.

Our team of experts make use of only the highest quality materials from some of the most trusted manufacturers in the country, including our full line of James Hardie Siding products, so you can always rest assured that you are getting the absolute best when it comes to your Folsom home’s siding services.
