Why Solar Installers Conduct Evaluations in the Winter

sewer tie in southeastern, ma

I would love to say solar installers in the Northeast take the winter off, but they don't. The work for sewer tie in southeastern, ma  does not stop just because snow is on the ground or ice is on a roof. In the snowiest and coldest parts of winter, a lot of companies spend time catching up on design, engineering, rebate, and permitting work as well as outreach to their customers and the community. However, a majority of solar installers will still be doing evaluations. We just can't afford not to!

I will be one of the first people to say that New England hasn't been the most conducive climate for solar work in the last year. Massachusetts just had its second hottest summer on record and a roof can be 20 to 30 degrees warmer than the ground in full sun. I'm sure that doesn't sound fun to most people! The winter hasn't been too forgiving, either. With the latest storm bringing in 12 inches, a roof in Massachusetts could have accumulated more than 18 inches of snow. With the anticipated cold front, forecasters do not believe the snow will melt on its own.



That probably leaves you with two questions. Why do we still conduct solar evaluations in the winter, and how the heck do we do it? Once we sign a sewer tie in southeastern, ma , it could be one to three months before we can start work depending on where you live. There are a few reasons why we can't begin work immediately and most are beyond our control. The main issue is usually the state-run rebate programs. We are required to submit an application and wait until it is approved before we can start work. In one project, the state had our application for three months before we got the go ahead. If you have a municipal utility, the process is usually easier and rebates can be approved within a week. However, our company still has a few hurdles with engineering, permitting and interconnection, not to mention scheduling other projects, so one month is a good case scenario.

With the generous federal and state incentives available in Massachusetts and Connecticut, more and more homes and businesses are going solar. In the last quarter of 2010, Massachusetts gave rebates to install 167 PV systems that will generate 2.7 MW of renewable energy. The popularity is expected to grow, and the industry is running to catch up. Some of my customers have told me that other solar installers are scheduling five months out because of their current workload. My point is that homeowners and businesses should act now if they want a PV system installed by the spring or summer.

  1. Dear reader,

    A home renovation or a home remodeling project is a worthwhile endeavor particularly if you have the design and the budget in place. However, you would need qualified general contractors who will get the job done and give you the results that you are expecting.
