  • Phoenix-Mesa, AZ (1888PressRelease) December 14, 2013 - American Solar, Arizona's leader in residential solar installation and innovation, says the best way to avoid painfully high summer electricity bills is to act now and prepare your home for a solar energy system.

    The first step is to get with an expert who can survey your property, especially your roof, and provide you with an accurate assessment of the cost involved as well as your potential savings on monthly utility payments.

    "A solid foundation is the best way to ensure high performance from your solar energy system, and in this case, the 'foundation' we're talking about is your roof. Someone who knows what they're doing needs to see your home, look for shaded areas, assess the condition of your roof and work with you to understand your aesthetic needs - in other words, how you want the finished product to look," said American Solar President and co-founder Sean Seitz.

    Experts are trained to catch potential problems during this initial assessment and to solve them before work even begins. Seitz says, "For example, if a solar panel is going to cover the roof vent for a bathroom fan, we can make arrangements to move that fan outlet and still keep costs under control. We also check your roof to make sure it's in good condition and will work with the size of solar energy system you have in mind."

    It's genuinely risky to go with the over-the-phone estimates that some companies rely on. Without an in-person evaluation, potentially tricky issues can be missed which will result in additional and unexpected cost. On its own, an inspection of this type would cost at least $500. American Solar is the only company that includes a full roof inspection and report as part of its installation agreement. (In addition to knowing your new solar system will be installed properly, you also have the comfort of knowing any roof problems will be spotted and repaired well before the start of the monsoon season.)

    A typical residential solar energy system installation through American Solar takes about 90 days to complete from signed contract to installation. So, it makes sense to start now, so your system will be up, running and ready before the intense heat of the Arizona summer season hits.
