How can I optimize my current solar system?To optimize your solar system, consider several strategies. First, installing a battery can be beneficial for Time of Use (TOU) pricing offset, allowing you to store excess energy generated during off-peak hours and use it during peak times to minimize costs. Additionally, batteries enable arbitrage, where you can sell excess power back to the grid during peak rates, maximizing your return on investment. Implementing dedicated system monitoring allows you to track your system's performance in real-time, identifying any potential issues or areas for improvement. This proactive approach ensures that your solar system operates efficiently and effectively, maximizing its overall performance and longevity.

Why am I still getting a True-Up Bill?If you're still receiving a true-up bill, it could be due to various factors. Common reasons include fluctuations in energy consumption, changes in household habits, or system inefficiencies. It's essential to assess whether your solar system is meeting your energy needs effectively. Factors such as additional appliances, increased energy usage, or system malfunctions may contribute to a true-up bill. Get in touch, we can evaluate your system's performance and identify potential areas for improvement, ensuring it aligns with your energy consumption patterns.

How do I maintain my solar panel system?The best way to maintain your panels is to keep them clean! The best way to clean solar panels is with deionized water to inhibit mineral deposits which cause debris to stick to surface. We recommend Solar Wash to provide long lasting clean!
