Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers to the most common questions Tennessee homeowners ask.
Do I need to upgrade my electrical panel?
If your panel is 150 amps or higher, upgrades are rarely required. We inspect and provide upgrade options when necessary.
Will solar increase my assessed value?
Maryland's property tax exemption prevents assessments from increasing due to solar equipment.
How often do I need to clean the panels?
Rain handles most cleaning. We schedule annual check-ins and recommend light rinses if pollen or debris accumulates.
