When you install a solar energy system on your property, you save money on your electricity bills and protect yourself against rising electricity rates in the future. How much you can save depends on the utility rates in your area, but going solar is a smart investment regardless of where you live.

Solar panel systems are made of durable tempered glass and require little to no maintenance for the 25-35 years that they will generate power. It’s good practice to clean your panels once a year, or to get the Alumo maintenance team to assist to ensure your solar system runs optimally. If the solar inverter or battery components become faulty, Alumo uses components that have favourable warranties.

The decision to buy or lease your solar energy system depends on your reasons for going solar. If you’re interested in maximising the financial returns of your solar energy system, buying the system is probably the better choice. If you prioritise an easy, maintenance-free way to reduce your energy bills and help the environment however, you should consider a solar lease.
