| Factors to Consider When Choosing Solar Panels.

Power Output

Higher wattage panels generate more electricity, which is useful if you have limited roof space and want maximum power output.

Durability

Solar panels must withstand harsh weather conditions. Look for panels with strong frames, tempered glass, and high resistance to wind and impact.

Warranty and Lifespan

Most panels come with a warranty of 20 to 25 years, ensuring long-term performance.

Shading Tolerance

Some panels perform better than others in partial shade, which is important if nearby objects cast shadows.

Cost vs. Value

The upfront price should be weighed against long-term energy savings and durability for the best investment.

Installation Requirements

Consider space, weight, and mounting options to ensure compatibility with your roof or ground setup.

Yes, we provide and install solar panels in Cape Town, surrounding areas, and other locations throughout the Western Cape.

We recommend the Canadian solar, JA Solar or Longi Solar brands to our clients, based on their needs. These are the brands we consistently use and trust for their quality and reliability.

Solar panels cost between R1800 for a 360W Solar Panel and R4200 for a 550W Solar Panel. The cost of solar panels depends on the size of the system, the brand, and installation fees. A small home system can start at around R50,000, while larger systems for businesses can cost over R200,000. Prices also vary based on choice of panels, as well as the number of batteries and inverter quality.

Solar panels work during the day, but without a battery and inverter, they do not provide power at night or during load shedding. Adding a battery system will ensure you have a continuous electricity supply.

Most solar panels last 25 to 30 years with proper maintenance. Their efficiency slightly decreases over time, but they continue generating power for decades.

Solar panels require minimal maintenance. Cleaning them a few times a year and ensuring they are free from dust and bird mess will help maintain their efficiency.
