Common FAQ’s For Going Solar

Excited about what your future electric bill looks like after you go solar? Find out how to read all your savings!

Solar panels use photovoltaic (PV) cells to capture sunlight and convert it into direct current (DC) electricity. That DC power is then sent through an inverter, which transforms it into alternating current (AC) electricity that your home or business can use.

Yes. Today’s solar panel technology is more efficient and affordable than ever. Advances in materials and design allow panels to generate more power even on cloudy days, making them a reliable source of clean energy for most homes in New York and New Jersey.

Kamtech Solar offers solutions for flat roofs, pitched roofs, and ground-mounted systems. Our team designs custom installations so you can benefit from solar energy no matter what type of roof you have.

By generating your own electricity, you reduce the amount you buy from the utility. Over time, this means lower monthly bills, protection against rising energy costs, and eligibility for solar tax credits and incentives.

Standard solar panels shut down during outages for safety, but when paired with solar battery storage, your system can provide backup power. This keeps your lights on, your fridge running, and your family comfortable during emergencies.
