Solar by city

Solar in Kansas has a wide sky and a hail problem that the wide sky makes obvious. West of a town, roofs sit in the open with no ridge and no neighbor to intercept stones. East, in the hills and the older streets, trees and shelterbelts steal the south plane and also protect it. Neither case is a drawing until someone has looked at the covering. Bruised shingles, dented vents, and a tired ridge are the first conversation.

Call with the town, which way the open slopes face, and what you remember of the last hail at that house. If gutters and the condenser took dents, the roof was in the same yard. Say whether the attic is stained. Say whether the house is one windbreak away from open country or tucked under street trees. Shade from a south shelterbelt can wipe out the useful part of a roof that looks perfect from the road. You can see that from the yard at midafternoon without guessing.

Wind is the other half. Attachments and flashing have to live with a north wind in winter and a storm wind whenever a core goes by. Ask how a later roof replacement is supposed to work with the array in place, and who comes back if a penetration weeps into an attic that freezes. You are not selecting equipment models on the phone. You are checking that the plan expects Kansas weather instead of a calm catalog sky.

Basement electrical panels are common, and many are already full of the house as it grew. Say where the panel is, basement, garage, or outside, and whether it looks crowded. Do not invent a capacity. Say whether you would own the equipment. Turning a system on still depends on permission from the utility and on a roof that can be worked later. Those are visit topics you should know exist before you agree to a picture taken from above.

Kansas sun on an open roof is real, and so is the hail that treats that roof as a target. Look at the weather slopes and the trees to the south, recall the storms at this address, and call before a remote view overrules the granules in the gutter. Call the number on this page.
