If you live in an area that has winters where it snows and such, how does that affect the panels? Would icing of the panels be a problem or concern to consider when doing this kind of work?

Once the contractors helper showed up the owner of the license is deemed responsible for all the work as the law views the contractor now as the ‘supervisor’ regardless of what other contracts were drawn up. Homeowners in the eyes of the court are seen as ‘retards’ to be protected & are treated differently than a commercial enterprise doing biz with another commercial biz. This cheapskate homeowner would turn on ‘Steve’ as soon as it benefits him. + all the materials used cost planet more.

Pretty sure the panels will pay for them self in about 2 – 2 1/2 years….Total cost was $7,237 calculating at about 300 a month
There is places to get good prices and cheap stuff if you can look in the right places…
Maintenance might depend were you live, My buddy hardly ever cleans his panels as they look clean always and we rarely get rain or snow or anything like that…
His batteries have been going strong and they are like 7 years old already…
What else would you maintenance?
