Keeping up the Curb Appeal
The installation of solar panels is more than a way to save on your utility bill – it’s an investment in your home. Though solar panels have consistently translated to higher home values, not everyone loves how they look on their roofline. Paradise Energy worked with the Jacksons to determine the optimal location for their ground-mounted array, so they could enjoy solar energy’s many benefits with minimal impact to their home.
Determining the Right Size for a Solar Array
The Jacksons knew they wanted to offset their energy consumption with solar, but were unsure of the array size that would work best for their goals. Paradise Energy worked with the Jacksons to come up with a number of alternative strategies which provided all the information needed to make an informed decision. As a result, nearly 85% of their energy needs were covered.
