More than 2 million homes in the U.S. now have solar panels on their roofs. Those homeowners are using a part of their home that once only cost them money to now save money!
Solar roofing is a great way to reduce your carbon footprint and increase your energy savings. If you’re ready to learn more about solar, call All Weather Exteriors LLC, your GAF Master Elite® roofing contractor, for a free consultation.
If you look at a typical installation of solar panels, you’ll notice that the panels are attached a few inches above the shingles or other roofing material. When you choose DecoTech from GAF, installed by All Weather Exteriors LLC, you’ll receive a roof-integrated solar system. This means that your solar panels are part of your roofing system. They attach directly to the roof deck.
They are lower-profile than other types of solar panels and shed water just like shingles. Unlike shingles, however, they generate energy for your home. If you compare the efficiency of solar shingles to DecoTech solar panels, you’ll find that DecoTech is more energy-efficient.
Solar energy is a great way to not only help you reduce your energy costs, but also to help the environment. Depending where you are in Massachusetts or New Hampshire, you may also benefit from renewable energy credits, tax incentives or net metering.
Your consultant at All Weather Exteriors LLC can help you understand the benefits available in your area.
When you choose DecoTech solar roofing, you’ll also need to replace your roof. The panels integrate into your roofing system. Although other manufacturers’ solar panels may not require a new roof, if your roof is more than eight years old, you should replace it prior to the installation of the solar panels anyway, making DecoTech an equally cost efficient choice.
If you’re considering solar panels, call the exterior renovation team at All Weather Exteriors LLC. We’ll provide you with a competitive quote for both a new roof and DecoTech solar panels.
