Polycrystalline Silicone
• Typical 50+ year life
expectancy
• 25 year- 80% performance
warranty
Amorphous Silicone Panels
•Higher output in
hot climates or
cloudy conditions
• Requires twice the
area to as
conventional PV
• Lower life
expectancy than
conventional PV

Photovoltaic Systems
• PV costs between $5.50- $10.00/
watt installed- Stationary mount,
single-axis tracker, and dual-axis
tracking options available
• Larger systems typically run much
less

• Maintenance of PV systems is minimal. The
panels should be cleaned occasionally or as
needed.
• Panels are warranted up to 25 years and most
inverters are warranted up to 10 years
• All controls are automatic, solid state,
UL approved and NEC regulated.
UL – Underwriters Laboratories
NEC- National Electric Code

• Hail is a concern for hailstones over 1 ½”
in diameter. Homeowner’s insurance will
cover replacement. Notify your insurance
company to find out if additional coverage
is needed. Most companies do not require
additional coverage or additional fees. Your
agent should be notified of the addition of
PV to eliminate confusion when a claim is
made.
