The amount of solar energy in the US energy grid today is staggering: almost 100 gigawatts, up from under 1 gigawatt back in 2008. Solar energy is clean, sustainable, and cheaper than ever before. It’s no wonder, then, that so many people have started looking into installing solar panels onto their own homes.

But if you’re one of the millions of people that are curious about solar energy, you should know about the all-too-common mistakes that newbie solar users make when they set about putting up their panels.

Read on to find the 6 most common solar installation errors, and how to avoid them!

  1. Going Too Big (or Too Small)

Your roof, believe it or not, has only a finite amount of space on it. That means it can only usefully (and safely) accommodate solar panels of a certain size.

For too many solar installers, this lesson is learned far too late.

Make sure you measure up your roof and pick panels that will match its size. You’ll save yourself a lot of trouble in the long run.

  1. Cutting Costs

We get it, cheapness is pretty tempting. Installing solar panels is cheaper than ever and getting cheaper, but it can still cost a lot overall, which makes cost cutting a tempting option.

The thing is, you’re just setting yourself to spend more down the line when the stuff you cut corners on breaks. Don’t do it!

  1. A DIY Mentality

Solar panels are fascinating — and complicated — bits of tech. Despite that, plenty of first-timers think they won’t have too much trouble installing their new energy equipment themselves. Too often, this breeds disaster.

By working with pros like the Blue Raven Solar installer team, you can ensure you don’t run into any DIY disasters.

  1. Move Fast and Break Things

Lots of people try to install as fast as possible when they get their new panels. Sadly, that usually just ends up with a broken dream and even more broken panels. Take your time!

  1. Badly Measured Needs

Mismatched needs and expectations are the number one cause of broken relationships between installers and their panels. Make sure you adequately gauge your energy needs (and what they’ll be in future) before installing. You’ll be glad you did!

  1. Ignoring Incentives

It might take a bit of paperwork, but plenty of state governments offer all sorts of incentives to homeowners willing to put solar panels on their roofs. Even at the federal level, there are schemes available to take the sting out of the bill that comes with putting panels on your home.

Common Solar Installation Errors? Avoid Them!

So there you go, folks, just a few of the most common solar installation errors that people run into. Mostly, it all comes down to a failure to properly plan and research. Stay on top of those things, and your home will be happily buzzing with solar energy in no time.
