Commercial buildings are ideal for installing solar panels. They generally have greater surface area to install larger systems which lead to powerful long-term savings for businesses. How are commercial systems different than residential arrays?

First of all, commercial buildings aren’t always bound by the aesthetic concerns prevalent in residential applications. An office building, for example, has a rooftop concealed from the street below, an ideal location to install solar panels without an accompanying visual nuisance. This also allows a much larger array to be installed.

Larger solar installations tend to be more efficient since larger panels are generally more efficient than smaller ones. Since concerns for appearance are minimized, installation of commercial systems on flat surfaces is much easier and faster than on slanted residential roofs.

Interestingly, the price per kilowatt hour of power is the same. Since this is how solar panels are usually sold, there is no competitive price difference and some homeowners might find that commercial solar panels work just fine for their needs.

One striking similarity between residential and commercial solar panels is that they are both excellent options for saving on energy costs. If your business is looking for a way to improve its bottom line, solar panels are an investment that grow with time.

As energy costs rise by about 5 percent every year, so does your energy bill. Many businesses like yours have discovered that they can install a solar panel at no initial cost and pay off the cost of their solar system as time goes by. They lock into current power rates, enjoy immediate savings on their power bill, and watch as their energy costs gradually decrease, while their neighbors pay more and more every year.

Take a look around: sunshine is one of the most resources in southern California. You just need the help of solar installers to tap into it. Give us a ring to discover how to start.

One of the biggest and best advancements to hit modern U.S. homes today is the advent of the home automation system. These systems allow you to have control over your house at your fingertips. There’s a combination of hardware, software, and appliance-based interfaces that goes into creating this system, and therefore it’s only natural that something can eventually go wrong.

Even the greatest technology can have bugs that will need to be worked out. If you have problems with your home automation system, the best thing you can do is give your professional electricians a call to help repair the damage and get you back in control. However it may also be helpful to understand what some of the most common issues are, and how we troubleshoot them.

Naturally, when you go to integrate home automation into your home, you are going to have some home systems—if not all—that are older and have been with the home for a awhile. Integrating these older electronic systems with the new one of your home automation system can be challenging, and it may take some time to understand where the integration problems exist.

This type of problem usually presents as a non-response from whatever device or appliance you are attempting to use, or limited functionality from that system. Your professional electrician will know how to repair these issues as they have experience with these types of issues.

Your home automation system is completely interconnected and connected to your home’s electrical system, and therefore depends heavily on the wiring of your electrical system. So if you experience any type of electrical short, poor wiring, or faulty wiring, then there can be a malfunction of your system. Your professional electrician will look at the electrical layout for your home automation system—which can be complex—to determine the exact cause of the problem.

Sometimes due to unforeseen circumstances your home automation system may suffer from physical damage. When that occurs, a professional will be able to carefully inspect the system and repair or replace the components that were damaged to obtain full functionality of your home automation system.
