Solar by city

Solar in Georgia is a roof, a shade, and an electrical question before it is anything else. Pines and hardwoods cover a huge share of Piedmont roofs for part of the day. A mountain cabin may have a clear south pitch and a snow or ice load the coastal plain never sees. A house near the islands may have wind, salt mist, and a roof that has already been lifted once by a storm. If the array is drawn from a sky photo alone, nobody has stood on the deck or opened the electrical panel.

Ask for a visit in person. The age and condition of the shingles or the metal decide whether the roof should be replaced before any attachment goes down. Flashing at each penetration is the leak you will actually live with. Ask who comes back if water enters at a mount, and ask what happens to the array when the roof is replaced later. Dormers, chimneys, and chopped planes on older houses shrink the usable area. A simple ranch roof is a different layout from a bungalow full of valleys.

The equipment should be named, not gestured at. Modules and inverters belong in the writing, along with whether the inverter is a single unit or electronics at each module. Ask who can see production when something goes quiet, and who is called that day. Ask about the existing electrical service. Older houses across Georgia often have a panel that was never planned for a backfed breaker and a new disconnect.

Permits and the utility interconnection are part of the job, not a courtesy. Ask who files them, and ask whether the system stays off until the utility gives permission to operate. Wind on the coast, hail inland, shade from a neighbor pine, and salt on the hardware are design facts. Ask who owns the equipment when the work is done, and who takes it off if the roof must be opened later.

Say the city, the age of the roof, and whether trees shade the south side. Solar in Georgia is a site question, and the site is not the same in the mountains, the clay belt, and the salt air. Call the number on this page.
