• When looking to build an energy-efficient home,
  you should always start with the right roof.
  Metal roofs can easily be paired with solar
  panels, and they are energy efficient on their
  own, partnering to create an economically wise
  and environmentally friendly solution to the
  energy that the average family consumes daily.
  Besides that, they are more environmentally
  friendly to produce. You will need to buy mounts
  for your roof, but these are relatively easy to
  find and you can usually find a quality company
  to install them on your roof.

• These companies also usually create guards to
  protect your roof and add-ons from damage. Once
  they're there, they begin making back the money
  they cost immediately. Especially when paired
  with a metal roof, solar panels are an incredible
  move toward energy Independence for an individual
  home.

• You can install solar panels any time of year,
  but probably the best time to install them is in
  the summer. In the summer, the sun is out for the
  longest, and you can truly see how helpful your
  addition of energy collection will be to your
  family. Plus, in December, there are fewer storms
  and cold fronts that come in, so it is less
  likely that weather will damage your newly
  installed add-ons

• Unfortunately, if you live in a colder climate,
  solar panels can also be damaged by snowfall. So
  can metal roofs. When a storms ice builds up on
  metal roofs, the ice compacts into frozen slabs
  that can crack or damage the roof and slide off
  to be a danger to those below.

• The snow can also damage your energy collection
  process. You can combat this grim reality with
  specially made guards for your roof. Snow guards
  for solar panels protect them from heavy
  compacted drifts by disrupting the fall and
  allowing it to melt in smaller patches, not
  together in larger, dangerous slabs.

• Solar panels need to be insulated against the
  snow and cold of northern winters. To protect
  your solar panels and your roof, installing snow
  guards is probably a good idea. Metal roofing can
  pair with snow guards for solar panels easily,
  since many add-ons are created specifically to
  pair with metal roofs. There are companies who
  specialize in these kinds of guards, and they
  will be able to help you find the best way to
  engineer a snow guard solution for your home. TRA

  roofs. Contact them today to find the best
