Some home improvement projects can be DIY to save you time and money. However, this isn’t the case with all of them. As a general rule, it’s good to leave anything that requires electricity to the professionals to keep you safe, and installing solar panels is no different. If you’re still not convinced that you should hire Maryland solar installers, our team at Solaris Solar Solutions has three big reasons why it’s a good idea.

General safety

Anytime you’re on a rooftop you’re in a dangerous situation. The sloped surface is much more slippery than it looks and it’s not uncommon for people to fall off a roof. Professionals are not only used to walking around on roofs during solar panel installations but they have the necessary equipment to ensure safety during installation.

In addition to overall safety, professionals have a strong understanding of the electrical components attached to your solar panels. The solar panels will need to be properly hooked up to your power supply and a mistake could lead to electrocution or require costly repairs. Additionally, it’s not uncommon for the wiring to be set up by a professional electrician or installation team.

Solar panel warranties

Many solar panels will come with lengthy warranties of about 25 years. You’re going to want these in place because repairs can be costly. Although, these warranties can be nullified if the installation isn’t done correctly. Installation professionals understand the proper techniques and manufacturer guidelines for installing solar panels that will meet their requirements for maintaining the warranties. What’s more, it’s not uncommon for one of the requirements of the warranty is that a licensed professional be the one to complete the installation.

Specialize in installation


There are many reasons to have professionals install your solar panels beyond safety and warranties. To lump them all under one umbrella we can talk about how our solar installers specialize in installing solar panels. This means that you’ll save on time and effort by having professionals come to do the job for you. You can also be confident that we’re getting the job done right the first time so there won’t be any tinkering or fiddling with the equipment to get it to work right. Not only is this inefficient, but it’s also dangerous.

To be sure that your solar installation is done correctly, our team of experts has been trained to work with solar panels as well as giving an understanding of how to maintain a roof. Someone who isn’t familiar with the installation process might simply find the easiest way to fasten down the solar panels rather than the correct way. With an experienced installer, you know that it’s being done according to the industry standards and manufacturer guidelines. This ensures that your roof doesn’t sustain any damage and the panels are secure.
