Frequently Asked Questions
Currently, the federal government offers a 30% tax credit on all costs associated with installing a renewable energy system. The Inflation Reduction Act, recently passed, allows for additional tax credits beyond 30%. Please contact us to find out if you may qualify. Check with your local Utility company and they may offer Rebated or low-interest loans to install.
Businesses installing solar energy also have the added benefit of bonus depreciation. With all the incentives, a solar energy system can pay for itself in less than 5 years.

Sizing a solar array is based on both your usage and your available area to install solar panels. It is not necessary, and not always practical, to match or exceed your entire usage. We can install any amount of solar panels to fit your needs.
Farms and larger businesses can install any amount of solar possible given enough space. Large systems can save thousands of dollars every month in electricity.
We only install panels with a minimum 25-year guaranteed power output. A respectable solar panel should operate for over 30+ years.
Solar Panels and their mounting hardware are not heavy but increase in weight as a system builds up in size. A modern house or Agricultural Building with a modern roof should have no problem supporting the load of a solar array. We will work with our partner Silfab to ensure that your roof is able to handle the additional loading from the Solar System.
The second consideration for installing solar panels on a roof is orientation. Solar panels work best at an angle facing the South. If your roof does not face South, you are not excluded from installing solar panels, you will have to install slightly more panels to meet your needs. Visit the Iowa Energy Center Website to get more information on your exact location.
No, several methods of mounting solar panels exist, not only for roof mounting but for ground mounting. Given the right amount of ground space, large and small solar energy systems can be installed successfully.
The solar panels that we sell are rated for hail impact using 1″ diameter hail moving at 50MPH. Snow is no problem for solar panels. It can build on the surface of the panel, but a properly oriented and lifted panel will allow snow to melt and clear itself in a few days.
In normal, day-to-day operation, there should be no maintenance required to keep your system operating at its peak In certain circumstances, the panels may need to be washed off if there has been no rain.
