FAQ
How does Solar by Ecos determine the cost of a solar installation?
We evaluate several factors to create a custom quote for your home, including your roof size and condition, how many panels can fit based on your roof's structure and shade exposure, and your current energy usage. Our team will assess whether your roof can support a solar array or if a ground-mounted system would work better for your property. We provide detailed estimates so you understand exactly what you're investing in before any work begins.
Are you licensed and insured to install solar panels?
Solar by Ecos maintains all necessary licensing and insurance required to perform solar installations in Kentucky. Our installers are trained to follow local building codes and permitting requirements specific to the Louisville area. We handle all permit applications and inspections with your local municipality, so you don't have to navigate that process yourself.
What's included when Solar by Ecos designs my solar system?
Our design process includes a comprehensive roof assessment to determine the ideal system size based on available space and sunlight exposure. We use tools like solar pathfinders to identify any shading issues from trees, chimneys, or other obstructions that could reduce your system's performance. We'll also recommend the best racking system for your specific roof type-whether that's traditional roof mounts, ballasted systems for flat roofs, or ground-mounted arrays if your roof isn't suitable.
How long does the actual installation process take?
Solar by Ecos typically completes the physical installation-including panels, inverter, racking, and wiring-in one to two days. However, the entire project timeline also includes the permitting phase, which can take several weeks to months depending on your local jurisdiction, and final utility interconnection approval. We'll give you a realistic timeline upfront so you know when to expect our crew and when your system will be generating power.
What does Solar by Ecos do with debris and how is my property left after installation?
We treat your property with care throughout the installation process. Our team properly manages all installation materials and debris, leaving your home clean and organized once the work is complete. We also ensure all roof penetrations are properly flashed to prevent leaks and protect your roof's integrity. If your roof needs any repairs or replacement before solar installation, we can discuss those needs during our initial assessment.
Why should I hire a professional installer instead of attempting solar installation myself?
Professional solar installation requires specialized knowledge of electrical codes, structural safety, and roofing techniques that protect both your home and your investment. Our installers understand proper mounting procedures, flashing installation, and how to secure panels without damaging your roof or voiding your roofing warranty. We also handle all permitting, inspections, and utility interconnection-complex processes that vary by location and require licensed professionals to ensure your system is safe, legal, and optimized for performance.
