Advantages and Disadvantages of Turnkey Solar | The DIY solar approach

Turnkey installations rely on the knowledge and strength of the solar installer. An experienced turnkey solar installer such as ClarySolar will marry the right products together to create a robust and reliable solar electric system design. The experienced turnkey solar installer will also be aware of the limitations of each design and only suggest solutions that are financially and technically feasible. Lastly, based on long term relationships between the turnkey solar installer and the solar manufacturers, the turnkey solar installer will be able to provide bulk buy and long term trading deals to customers.

On the other hand the do-it-yourself solar approach allows to custom select each item that goes into the solar electric system and design accordingly. This approach requires and develops a strong understanding of engineering principles and practical hands-on experience in troubleshooting. It is strongly recommended that a solar consultant is used to design and install the solar electric system.
