A premier roofing and solar installer, offering several different installation partners, this outfit is definitely a must visit when investigating solar for your new home. Sunroof Solar is tying up with Energy mastery to cover the breadth of Long Island to NYC City, covering everything from insulating your attic to insulating your walls. If you have a modern, streamlined home, they can design a solar program that covers the length of your roof. The details are staggering, and the savings truly are astounding.

So, what is it that makes Sun Roof so much more than a typical roofer? In fact, the first thing that comes to mind is the upfront cost. However, as many installations are, they do come with a warranty, and the Sun Roof panels themselves come with 2 years of warranty. That’s significant savings in the long run, and shows just how far ahead of the game Sun Roof is.

Another savings is in the long haul, when compared with conventional roofing materials. Using traditional roofing materials can be expensive, especially in the long haul, because you’re having to replace older, less effective materials all the time. When you install a Sun Roof panel, you have an investment that lasts and will save you money in the long run, because it’s virtually maintenance free. Sun Roof panels, due to their innovation, don’t rust, melt, warp or deform. They are very durable and will stand up to high winds and hail storms with great success.

Additionally, there are no on-going costs, as with other types of roofs, such as asphalt and wood. You pay for them once, and they are there for the life of the solar panels, which can last as long as 20 years. With conventional roofing materials, that could change depending on what’s going on in the market.

The biggest advantage of utilizing the Sunroof brand of solar energy for your home, is its direct, simple connection to the local power grid. Most installations of solar power panels require you to tie into the local power grid through an inverter, and then connect that to the battery bank on-site. That connection isn’t always direct. In some cases, the signal between the battery bank and the power grid can be corrupted, resulting in a loss of output power.

This problem is eliminated with the installation of the Solar Powered brand of roofing. This brand of solar panels eliminates all that connection, eliminating all the up-front cost. All the installation takes place at the solar power house, so all the cables are hidden underground, and the sunlight hits the panels directly. That way, there’s no signal loss involved, and you don’t have to worry about any outages due to weather conditions. The result is an immediate up-front cost saving from the elimination of the up-front cost of an electrical connection.

So, if you’re a resident or a business owner in Long Island, does your business (or your residence) need a Solar Powered brand of roofing? You need one if you use a computer and Internet to conduct business, if you live in a cold climate and you use a heater to keep yourself comfortable during the winter. You also need one if you have a pool, a swimming pool, a hot tub, if you have a spa, or if you have a huge outdoor entertainment area, like a basketball court. The bottom line is that a Solar Powered roofing system will allow you to stay warm and save money at the same time. But, you should be aware that in a cold climate, that Solar Powered roofing systems can actually provide a significant benefit to your energy bill, even reducing your energy bill by up to 40% in some instances.

If you live on the east coast of Long Island, a sunny June can mean that you are paying on average two or three times what you would pay for similar roofing in inland areas. You may not have noticed it, but the rising cost of fossil fuels and the associated “feel good” factor that comes with buying new things has driven our economy to such an extreme abundance. Unfortunately, most consumers haven’t taken the time to evaluate the cost savings they can receive from Solar Powered versus non-solar methods of roofing. Most consumers simply assume that a Solar Powered roof will cost them too much, and they’ll decide that there’s nothing else that they can do. Fortunately for those who took the time to evaluate the options, there is another alternative…
