“Solar installation is the last step. As an experienced engineer, I know that the most important step is system design. You cannot have a successful installation with a poor design. Design-wise, I had two engineering meetings because after the first meeting, the math “wasn’t mathing.” After the second meeting, we had a robust, albeit conservative, system design. Public Service didn’t try to sell me more panels or try to squeeze more panels into places that would make chimney maintenance harder. Everything was planned according to code and without trying to cut corners. Roof replacement was done with a lot of attention to detail. There were some issues, but all of them were meticulously resolved. The solar installation was done flawlessly, and all inspections passed.”
