Best Solar Panel Installers in Fairfield, CA

Solar panels absorb the sun's energy throughout the day and convert it into direct current (DC) electricity. Most homes and businesses run on alternating current (AC) electricity, so the DC electricity is then passed through an inverter to convert it to usable AC electricity. At that point, you either use the electricity in your house or send it back to the electric grid.

All generators require periodic maintenance, such as oil and filter changes to ensure maximum performance for years of reliable service. Scheduled maintenance kits are available and many Generac authorized dealers offer annual maintenance contracts for a worry-free ownership experience. We recommend you have your unit serviced every 6 months.

No...the generator fuel costs would be much more expensive than buying power from the utility company since their cost to produce electricity is divided among thousands of customers. Our automatic generators are produced for use as backup to utility power specifically and should not be used as primary power.

Depending on state rebates and incentives, zero energy homes may cost 5% to 10% more to build than a similar home built to code. However those costs will be paid back within 5 to 15 years depending on each specific situation. Zero energy homes also can cost less to own beginning on day one and can have enhanced market value.

If there are financial restraints, consider building or remodeling a net zero ready home. If there is a lack of sunlight, consider building or remodeling a near zero home that has all the energy saving features of a zero energy home, but without the solar collectors.
