String inverters are the cheapest and work well when panels share the same angle. Microinverters or power optimizers cost more but let each panel work alone, which helps when shade hits part of the roof. Ask which option the installer includes and why.
Loose roof brackets cause leaks after heavy rain. Poor sealing around cable entries lets water reach the inverter. Shading from new trees or buildings lowers output fast. Bad wiring trips the breaker under load. Always ask the installer how they prevent each of these issues.
An installer visits your home, checks the roof condition and direction, measures shade, and designs a system that fits your power use. They mount rails, attach panels, wire them to an inverter, connect to your meter, and run final tests. They also handle the paperwork for grid connection.
Clean panels every 6 to 12 months to remove dust, leaves, and bird droppings. Check inverter logs monthly for error codes. Inspect mounting hardware yearly for rust or loose bolts. Trim nearby branches that grow into the panel area. A professional inspection every 2 years is also recommended.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Most residential jobs use 60-cell or 72-cell crystalline silicon panels. Monocrystalline panels have higher efficiency, around 19 to 22 percent, while polycrystalline sit closer to 15 to 18 percent. Thin-film panels are lighter but need more roof space for the same power output.
