Solar allows you to save on your monthly  electric bills plus it also allows you to save the planet by going  green. Solar energy is a true form of renewable clean energy  which leads to zero pollution (air, noise, land) and emits no  greenhouse gases mitigating climate change.    Is solar power safe?    Yes. The electricity produced by a solar power system is no  different than the electricity you get from your electricity  distribution company. The only difference is the source. Moreover,  it is among the safest source of electricity consumption because it  is neither hazardous nor does it release any toxic or harmful gases  during production.   

2.           What is a rooftop solar system?  You can use the empty space on your roof to install a solar system  which will convert sunlight into electricity for your house or  building. Such a system is referred to as a rooftop solar system.  What do I need to install a rooftop solar system?  All you need to qualify for a solar system is - empty space on your  roof and access to your rooftop. Just fill the project enquiry form  on our website and our team will contact you to discuss your  requirement. Once the project is finalised, we will take care of your  entire plant design, installation and maintenance.    What is the life of a rooftop solar system?  The Solar Plant life is 25 years. The main components are solar  panels and inverters. Solar panels have a warranty of 25 years and  inverter warranty ranges from 5-12 years.    Do Solar Rooftop projects have a high maintenance cost?  A Solar Rooftop module comprises minimal moving parts and  hence has very low maintenance cost. SolarSquare Energy  provides first 5-year maintenance free of cost to clients ensuring a  hassle free experience for all our customers. 

3.   Can Solar projects damage my roof?  SolarSquare Energy has a UL certification (one of the highest  quality and safety standards in the world) and ensures that no  damage to the existing structures takes place during the  installation or running of the solar plant. We use a multitude of  techniques like non-penetrating structures and waterproofing  solutions to ensure your roof’s integrity.      Do I need to clean my Solar plant?  It is a good practice to clean the solar panels 1-2 times a month. It  is safer to clean the panels early in the morning or at night when  no incident sun rays are present and the power plant is not  producing any electricity. You can simply use a clean wet cloth,  soft nylon brush or sponge to wipe the surface but ensure the  panels are clear of any moisture. Don’t use metal brushes or  detergents as these may streak the glass of the panel.    How much does a solar Plant cost?  The cost of a solar plant depends on its size, configuration and  degree of supporting structures required. We provide you multiple  options to choose from, designed specifically to meet your  requirements.
