The Top 7 Mistakes Newbies Make When Buying Solar
Systems
5
1 Too much expectation

• People have undue expectations from a solar power
  system sometimes.
• They feel that the system will start saving money
  from the first month of installation.
• However, we should understand that it is an
  investment. No investment gives a return before a
  certain time.
• It will take some time to start earning from the
  system.
• It depends on various factors like the amount of
  cloud cover, angle of solar panels, the
  efficiency of the system, and so on.

2 Buying substandard systems

• Sometimes, people make the decision of switching
  to solar hastily. They do not spend sufficient
  time in study and research. Thus, they end up
  buying low-quality, substandard systems
  recommended by some non-qualified person. It is
  one of the most common mistakes newbies make.
• It does not mean you should be extravagant. The
  point is, do a proper analysis and then invest in
  the system.

3 No getting detailed quotations

• This mistake is interlinked with 2. When people
  do not research wholeheartedly, they tend to
  ignore the quotation as well. Even if they get
  it, sufficient attention is not given to it.
• As a result, they buy a system that is expensive
  and does not fulfill all their expectations. One
  should ask for a detailed quotation from every
  vendor and read every bit of it.
• Factors like evaluation of the roof, orientation
  of the home, and current electricity consumption
  should be considered by the solar
  installer before giving a quotation.

4 Not considering incentives and rebates

• Every government in the state gives incentives
  and rebates for solar panel installation. It is a
  common mistake to ignore it while calculating the
  cost of energy.
•  
• There could be some extra rebates also over and
  above this. You have to ask local authorities
  about it. Government Rebate in the electricity
  bill is offered by the local utility company.

5 Delaying the decision

• People delay the decision due to their confusion
  and indecisiveness. It increases the cost of
  installation.
• They do not contact any service provider and
  explain their requirements. It is a reason for
  expensive system procurement.

6 More belief in DIY things

• Some people think that they are techno-savvy, and
  they can install it themselves. However, they are
  not aware of the minute technical details and
  possible difficulties and roadblocks.
• Sometimes, they do not have an idea of the size
  of the solar panels. They do not know how much
  roof support is required. They do not know about
  wiring and electrical details.

11
7 Not understanding about Roof Installation

• Sometimes, people go for it without preparation. 
  They do not have any idea about the direction,
  angle, and coverage of sunrays and so on.
• Make sure you are not committing any of these
  mistakes.
