What Texas's climate means for your solar
Local conditions change which materials and methods make sense.
- Hail
Most panels are rated to withstand hail of about one inch. Ask for the panel's hail rating and how the warranty treats storm wear.
- Hurricanes and coastal wind
Ask for racking and attachments rated for your area's wind speed.
- Strong sun and heat
Strong year-round sun means a system here produces more power per panel than in most of the country, which shortens payback.
- Timing
Installed year-round. Permitting and utility approval often take longer than the install itself, so ask about the full timeline.
