A standard home system with 10 to 15 panels takes 2 to 4 days of on-site work. Most of the time goes into mounting rails, not the panels themselves. Grid connection and inspection add another 1 to 3 weeks. Weather delays can stretch the total timeline.
Panel product warranties usually last 10 to 25 years, while performance warranties promise at least 80 to 85 percent output at year 25. Inverter warranties range from 5 to 12 years. Workmanship warranties from the installer typically run 2 to 10 years. Get all terms in writing.
A standard 6 to 10 panel residential system takes 1 to 3 days on the roof. Wiring, inverter setup, and grid inspection add 2 to 6 weeks of waiting because the local utility must approve the connection. Total project time from contract to switch-on is often 4 to 8 weeks.
Compare panel brand, inverter type, mounting brand, and warranty length, not just the total price. A cheap quote often skips better rails or surge protection. Ask each firm for the same panel count and orientation so the comparison is fair. Read the small print before signing.
Panels are usually monocrystalline silicon rated 400 W to 500 W each. Inverters come as string, micro, or hybrid types. Rails are aluminium, brackets are stainless steel, and cable is UV-rated double insulated. Your installer should list every part before work begins.
Older systems lose output after 15 to 20 years. Watch for yellowing panels, loose brackets, or inverter error codes on the display. A sudden drop in your monthly kilowatt-hour reading also suggests a fault. Get a professional test before replacing parts you may not need.
Most locations require a building permit for roof mounting and an electrical permit for wiring. After the install, a building inspector checks the mounting, and the utility sends a representative to approve grid connection. Your installer should manage both permits and schedule both inspections.
Tile, metal, and asphalt shingle roofs each need different mounting hardware. Tile roofs often require tile replacement brackets. Metal roofs can use clamps without drilling. Flat roofs need tilted frames. Roof pitch, usually between 15 and 40 degrees, also changes mounting time and parts.
Most panels carry a 25-year performance warranty. Inverters usually last 10 to 12 years. Mounting hardware often has a 10-year product warranty. Ask the installer for a yearly output check during the first 5 years to catch early faults before they grow.
Ask for the brand of panels, inverter, and mounting hardware. Request a copy of the warranty for parts and labour. Confirm the installer holds an electrical licence and public liability cover. Ask how they handle roof penetrations and who signs off the final inspection.
