When you want the best panel for USA conditions ?

Mono Perc Panel is better suited to USA conditions than a “Poly” Panel because we get very cold temperatures in Winter & very hot temperatures in Summer. If you need a panel that works in the heat of summer & the cold of winter consider a Q.PEAK-G4.1.

When you've problems with shading on your roof ?

If your house has issues with shading you will want to consider a Mono Perc Half Cell System. A Half Cell panel reduces the impact of shading. If the bottom half is shaded the top half continues to work. If you have problems with shading on your roof top consider a Q​.PEAK DUO-G5.

When you need an affordable solar panel ?

If you are prioritizing affordability over performance then TRE Solar Panels are not for you. Their panels provide higher efficiency & therefore power output over the long term but this comes at a higher cost.

When you're considering adding battery storage to your solar system ?

If you want to add a battery to your system then a “Mono” or “Mono Half Cell” module is a very good choice. Thanks to the PV systems high conversion efficiencies these panels are a great choice if you are considering adding energy storage or claiming feed-in tariffs. If you want to add a battery consider a Q​ CELLS​Mono Half Cell. Read here about our Battery reviews.

What're TRE warranty ?

While there are no guarantees, TRE​ is one of the largest panel manufacturers in the world & is rated as a Tier 1 company. Their product warranty is as good or better than other leading brands. Their performance warranty is outstanding. All of their panels are clean energy council approved.

What To Expect On Install Day?

Our team will arrive with a 'rolling workshop,' preparing them to handle any number of challenges on the job, including:

  • Variations in wall materials & thickness
  • Different types of casings or sill constructions
  • Changes from house settling
  • Unforeseen structural damage

What Is The Installation Process?

Your crew chief will take some time to get to know you, explain the day’s activities, & answer any questions you may have. After that we will:

  • Prepare the area. We place drop cloths (inside & out) to catch debris & dust, then carefully remove the old window & inspect for & repair any damaged window frame components, as needed.
  • Clean & prep the opening. Once the open window area is cleaned thoroughly, our installers put in the new window.
  • Insulate & seal the frame. Installers tightly seal the area around the frame & replace the trim around the window.
  • Verify our work. Once the window is installed, we perform a final inspection to make sure everything is in excellent working order.

Can I Replace My Windows By Myself?

Sure you can, but consider the following:

  • Do you know the difference between new-construction windows & replacement windows?
  • Make sure your measurements are accurate.
  • DIY replacement windows can be difficult to find.
  • Window replacement is a tougher job than most homeowners expect.
  • There is often a lack of complete details & instructions from the manufacturer on how to handle the hundreds of different surrounding wall & job site conditions.
  • Are you prepared to do the peripheral work, like installing exterior cladding?
  • Do you have the specialized tools that are required?

What If I Find A Handy-Man Who Can Do It For Less?

Good luck with that. Common problems you might be subject to include:

  • Inaccurate measurements that result in retrofitting your replacement windows
  • Scheduling the work only to find the time has to be moved back, often more than once
  • Potential damage to the interior/exterior of your home
  • No warranty
  • Difficulty getting the contractor to come back & fix problems
  • Poorly installed windows, even if they’re top-of-the-line, could end up costing more in the long run
