- For an existing roof, collect recent electricity usage and review shade and available panel space.
- Where a property is exposed to weather, ask about appropriate mounting and equipment documentation.
- If you are renovating, coordinate solar design with future hot water, heating and electric-vehicle loads.
- Check the electricity distributor for your precise address before relying on export assumptions.
