Frequently Asked Questions
FAQHere are answers to your questions about solar energy. Find answers to a variety of questions about solar power system installation, maintenance, power generation, cost, and more.
1.How much can you save by installing solar power?
The amount of savings on your electricity bill after installing a solar power system will vary depending on how much electricity you currently use, the rate you pay to your electricity provider, and the size of the rooftop area where you can install the solar panels.The best way to find out the expected savings is to send us the address of the installation location and your electricity bill.Based on the information you provide, we will design and suggest to you through an AI system to maximize your electricity bill savings.Typically, residential homes will save at least 60% compared to your current electricity bill. For industrial use, please contact us separately.
2.What is the payment method?
You pay 80% of the installation cost of the solar power system at the time of contract and the remaining 20% upon completion. The amount invested for installation is usually recovered through the savings in electricity bills within 5 years. It also reduces the customer's monthly electricity bill by 60% to 100%.
3.Are there any other location to have the setup installed other than my roof?
If it is difficult to install solar panels due to the direction of the roof or obstacles, you can consider installing solar panels elsewhere on the property. For example, you can install them in a parking lot or an empty lot. (However, the cost of the panel installation structure will be added separately.)
4.What effect does the installation of a solar power system have on the value of real estate?
According to the data, buildings with solar panels are valued higher than those without. In most parts of California, installing a solar panel increases home value more than remodeling a kitchen
5.What is the equipment lifespan of a solar power generation system?
In general, solar panels are very durable and can withstand severe weather. Your system is warranted for 26 years. It will produce electricity continuously for 25 to 35 years with very little maintenance costs. (The inverter warranty period is 5 years.)
6.Is it safe to install solar power?
Solar panels and inverters are safer products with a lower risk of fire than any other electronic product. Normal solar products can be used for more than 30 years without any risk of fire.
7.What is Net Meter?
Any excess electricity not consumed in the home or business is exported to a distribution utility (in this case, Meralco). In return, Meralco compensates customers through credits in their monthly bill.
After installing solar power, documents are submitted to Meralco, which takes about 3 months.
8.How long does it take to install solar power?
Solar power takes a week to visit the site and prepare a quotation. Installation is completed in 1 or 2 days after payment.
9.If the work was done by another company, can I still receive after-sales service from Solar26?
Solar power installed by other companies can also be serviced at Solar26.com. Additionally, solar power that has been contracted with Solar26.com can also be serviced, so please contact us at any time.
Reasons why you need solar power system
NecessaryAll functions including supply chain, value chain, project scheduling, manufacturing, services and spares, technology, R&D, etc. are integrated to give a complete solutions package.
1.Save with solar energy
Solar PV systems can significantly reduce customers’ monthly electricity bills by 60% to 100%. The cost of installing the system is more than covered by the savings in electricity bills. The average residential solar system can be paid for in less than five years, considering current electricity rates.
2.Preparing for future electricity rate increases
Residential electric rates in California have been steadily rising over the past decade. The average electric rate in 2020 was 25.9% higher than in 2010. Electric rates are rising due to rising prices, declining fossil fuel supply, and increasing demand. And they are likely to increase gradually (or sharply) in the near future. Buying a solar system for your home or business can effectively lock in your electric costs and prevent them from rising.
3.Environmental protection
Solar power is a clean, renewable energy source. Unlike fossil fuels, it uses solar energy without producing harmful greenhouse gas emissions or air pollutants. Choosing solar power can help reduce your carbon footprint and help mitigate climate change.
4.Increase in property value Increase in property value
Installing solar panels can increase the value of your property. Studies show that homes with solar panels tend to sell faster and for a higher price than homes without solar. This is an attractive advantage for eco-friendly buyers who value sustainable living and long-term cost savings.
5.Energy independence
Solar power allows individuals, businesses, and communities to produce their own electricity. This decentralization of energy production promotes energy independence, reducing dependence on centralized power grids and minimizing the risk of power outages due to grid failures or natural disasters.
