With all the talk about going "green" these days, it's important to have access to the latest solar power info before making any decisions about installing solar panels in your New Jersey home.
Why think about solar power at all? Because you can save money by tapping into the tax credits, rebates, and incentives local and state governments are offering right now. And, in some cases, you might even be able to sell your surplus energy back to your local power company.
Here is some solar power info that will ensure that you enjoy energy savings you can take to the bank.
-
Make sure your panels get the most sun possible. - Once you've installed your solar panels, either on your roof, you need to keep them free of obstructions that block the sun. So cut tree branches and trim bushes regularly.
-
Keep your panels clean - Wash the panels regularly with water and a soft cloth to remove the bird droppings, dust and other debris that reduce the efficiency of your panels.
-
Install a flow control system - If you're heating up water with your solar panel, this system will help reduce the amount of water that needs to be heated, enabling it to reach optimal temperatures.
-
Periodically readjust your panels - You'll need to do this to follow the changes in the angle of the sun during the year. It's often recommended that you shift the position of your panels at each solstice and equinox so that they are pointed towards the sun's position no matter what time of year it is. You may have to make special adjustments, depending on the type of panel you have and your location.
