Frequently Asked Questions

Interested in going solar? You’re in the right place. We’ve compiled clear, straightforward answers to help you understand how solar energy works and why it’s a smart, sustainable choice for your home.

How Much Does Solar Energy Cost?
How Will Solar Paanels Look on My Roof?
How does solar power work?

Our panels capture the sun’s energy and channel it through discreetly placed wires to an inverter, where it’s converted to electricity to power your home. When your solar power system produces more power than you need, it feeds the power back into the electricity grid.
How do solar panels affect property values?
For many homeowners thinking about going solar the question of what happens to their property value, Here few research studies completed to answer this question. Researchers have looked at this question as well. Here’s what they’ve found:

A study conducted by the Department of Energy’s (DOE) Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in 2011 found that homes that have solar electric systems installed actually have a better market value and sell for better prices compared to those houses that do not.

Another study conducted by NBER (National Bureau of Economic Research) also found that solar panels did increase the value of a home at the point of sale by 4 – 5%.

A survey of 1,600 Ontario residents found that 92% of homebuyers would look for energy-efficiency features in their new home

Canadians would overwhelmingly choose a house with energy efficiency upgrades over updated finishes like granite countertops or hardwood flooring.

When you sell a solar home, not only are you selling your home but you’re also selling a source of income
What if I want to sell my solar home?
Can solar panels be moved to another house?

Yes, solar panels can be moved from one house to the other.

Would you do this? Probably not. Why? The installation process is quite labour intensive and costs a good proportion of the total system cost. Removing a system also costs money.

A solar system can increase the value of a house, so many people will say that it is much more sensible and cost efficient to leave your solar system behind, to increase the value of your house for sale, and purchase a new solar system at your new house.
Will solar panels damage my roof?

In most installations, photovoltaic (PV) modules must be securely mounted on the roof to ensure optimal solar exposure and system performance. Various mounting solutions are available—such as fixed-tilt racking, ballasted systems, and rail-based or rail-less mounts—each tailored to specific roof types and structural considerations. These systems often require minor penetrations or modifications to the roofing membrane to ensure secure attachment. Crucially, all solar mounting hardware must comply with rigorous structural engineering standards and relevant building codes to qualify for government incentives and ensure the long-term mechanical integrity of the system under environmental loads such as wind and snow.
Proper installation in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications is critical to ensure system performance and to minimize any impact on the roof structure.Our technicians are extensively trained in the Radiant roof mounting system and adhere strictly to best practices during installation. Meticulous attention is given to securing the system without compromising the roof’s integrity, ensuring long-term durability and safeguarding your property against environmental exposure.
