For The Savvy Solar Enthusiasts! 🌞
Welcome to the sunny world of solar panels in beautiful Hawaii! 🌴 If you’re considering going solar, you’re in for a treat. Efficiency, cost, and power output are just the beginning of your solar journey. Let’s explore the ins and outs while shining a spotlight on Solar Specialty Group, your go-to for solar panel inspections in Hawaii.
Now, Hawaii is a paradise, but it’s no stranger to hurricanes. Your solar panels need to be hurricane-ready. While there’s no official hurricane rating for solar panels, most can handle winds of up to a whopping 140 mph. They’re secured with fasteners, through-bolting modules, or a sturdy three-frame rail system to withstand even the fiercest tropical storms.
Worried about your panel’s security? Inspections by Solar Specialty Group can spot any weaknesses and put your mind at ease.
Safety is paramount, and that includes fire safety. In case of a fire, your solar panels must match the fire rating of your roof. Solar panels now come with fire classifications like roofs do, such as Class A (for severe fire test exposure), Class B (for moderate fire test exposure), and Class C (for light fire test exposure).
Hawaii’s mild climate is perfect for solar panels, which perform best at around 77°-88°F. However, if temperatures soar above 149°F, efficiency can take a hit. Thankfully, this isn’t a major concern in our lovely state.
Now, let’s talk about the rare occurrence of hail. Those icy balls from the sky can be a challenge. But fear not! Solar panels are like superheroes for your roof, sporting a sturdy layer of tempered glass. They’re certified to withstand hail up to 1 inch in diameter at roughly 50 mph. Monocrystalline and polycrystalline panels are your best bet in hail-prone areas, while thin-film panels, with their sleek design, may not be ideal for such spots.
