More and more people are investing in home upgrades that can reduce their carbon footprint. Going solar benefits the environment and your savings. With a Tesla solar roof, you will enjoy lower utility costs without sacrificing the appeal of your house. A Tesla roof features an attractive tile design, which resembles the look of slate.
Prepare for your Tesla roof installation using these tips.
Before Your Roofer Arrives
You want to let your installer know about any concerns and questions you have. Have you done any work to your home while waiting for your installation appointment? It’s essential to notify your contractor. Furthermore, you might need approval before getting solar panels if you live in a community with a homeowners association. Failure to do this could result in fines.
Before the day of the installation, be sure your driveway and the area surrounding your electrical equipment are clear. Are there trees and shrubs surrounding your home? If so, you’ll have to trim them to make your home safer and more accessible for the installers.
During the Actual Installation
For the safety of the workers, power would have to be down for a couple of hours during installation. It could impact those who work and study at home. Plan necessary arrangements ahead because it can affect your internet connection.
The installation of your new solar roof could take up to two weeks. During the first few days of your project, there might be a dumpster on your property to dispose of refuse materials. If you have pets or kids at home, you must keep them away from the job site for safety reasons.
