How Solar Roofing Works
How Solar Roofing Works in 3 Simple Steps
Harvesting Sunlight
The solar panel will convert direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) that can be used as electricity. Panels will charge throughout the day and harvest the energy collected for electricity.
Energy Conversion
Energy will then be converted through an intricate micro-inverter system. During installation, we use the highest microinverters that will contribute to overall better performing solar roofing systems. The amount of energy gathered may depend on the size of the roof and the panels. Energy will be stored as it is converted.
Energy Use
A solar roofing system can help generate a significant amount of energy to help power your home. California sunshine can positively contribute to well-running roof systems. Any energy not utilized can be stored.
Incentives
The Go Solar California campaign by the California Energy Commission and the California Public Utilities Commission advocates for energy conservation through renewable energy. Customers with the Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E), Southern California Edison (SCE), and San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) are all eligible to apply for solar incentives.

The Process
Our roofing and solar technicians start all roofing services with a thorough roof evaluation. During this initial consultation, our roofers will assess the state of your roof and draft a customized service plan based on the evaluation. For our solar roofing service, we will spend extra time examining the structure and state to identify any roofing issues. Our technicians have been extensively trained on our top-quality roofing products and service to ensure that our customers can enjoy long-lasting roofing solutions. We specially design all types of roofing panels to align with the structure of the current roof. Solar roofing can be combined with other roofing services depending on the outcome desired.
