Compare Solar Installers SpringsWhat Installers Should Plan For in Springs
- DB upgrades. Many older homes in Springs need a new distribution board or an essential circuit board before solar goes in. Get it priced as its own line.
- Factory roofs. Warehouses and factories in Springs often have large IBR roofs. Installers should check purlin spacing and sheeting before designing a large array.
- Hail. Highveld hailstorms reach Springs most summers. Ask for panels with a published hail rating and check your insurance covers the system.
- Mine dust. Properties near mine dumps around Springs collect fine dust on panels, especially in dry, windy August. Budget for more frequent panel cleaning.
- Longer cable runs. Where the panels, inverter and house are far apart, as on many plots near Springs, cable size and voltage drop add real cost. Get it itemised.
