A guide in order, step by step: fourteen notes that walk with you from the bill that made you look at your roof to the day you want to expand.
Three stages, fourteen steps. Read them in order, or jump to the one you're living.
Three concrete things decide whether a solar system is worth it for you: how much you pay for electricity, what time of day you use it, and what roof you have. Here's how to check all three yourself, before you ask anyone for a quote.
Read articleYou don't need a perfect roof, you need a reasonable one. What to look at and in what order: shade first, then orientation, material and space, without anyone climbing up.
Read articleThe number doesn't come from a catalogue or your neighbour's kit: it comes from your bill and your roof, in that order. How you get from kWh to a panel count, and which signs give away serious sizing work.
Read articleAn on-grid system shuts down when the power goes out. It's the most expensive misunderstanding in the Argentine solar market. The three situations where storage does make sense, and how to tell whether you're in one of them.
Read articleThree PDFs with similar panel counts and prices that aren't far apart. Six questions that require no technical background and turn three opaque proposals into a comparable table.
Read articleExactly what a technician looks at when they climb onto your roof and open your distribution board, and why each thing matters. So you know what to expect and can judge whether the survey you were given was a serious one.
Read articleBetween signing and commissioning there are weeks where nothing visible happens and several invisible things do. The full map of the four stages, with honest timings for each and which one is the big variable.
Read articleThe day the system stops being an installation and becomes your system. What has to work, what they have to show you, and why it pays to take part rather than watch.
Read articleYear seven, the inverter fails and the company that installed it no longer exists. With the complete folder that conversation takes ten minutes. Without it, someone reconstructs your installation by looking at cables, and bills it by the hour.
Read articleA grey day, the app on the floor and the usual doubt. What to really expect from production at night, under cloud and in winter, complete answers, not sales lines.
Read articleA residential solar system has two real tasks, and both are easy to get wrong through excess or neglect. Fifteen minutes of monitoring a month and a clean less often than you'd think.
Read articleThe month closed below last year's and the question arrives on its own. Almost always nothing is wrong, but "almost always" is useless without a method: first the free eliminations, then the clues, and only then the phone call.
Read articlePanels don't break, they degrade, slowly and predictably. What ages, by how much, and who signs which document: the warranties that coexist in one system and the honest timeline at 5, 10 and 20 years.
Read article"Can it be expanded later?" Everyone says yes. The true answer depends on three decisions taken on the day you install, and those are the inverter, reserved roof space and electrical routing.
