Solar is cost effective for the majority of homeowners but here are a few things that determine how well solar will work in your home:
- You own your home
- Your roof is southern facing, with minimal shading, and in good condition (east and west orientation will work too)
- You have your own capital or good credit (if you are planning on financing your system)
- You plan on living at your current residence for at least the next 7-10 years
- You have the tax liability to utilize the 30% ITC
