Tired of paying too much for your electric every month? Now, you can find solar panel kits. anywhere from 5 watts to 500+ watts. But, before you undertake such a project, you should read some books on solar panel installation so you have some basic background knowledge. It wouldn't hurt anything to have some understanding of photovoltaics too.
There are many roofing repairs Perth great books available on these subjects, from places such as Amazon, E-Bay, and ABEbooks, just to name a few of the ones online. Sometimes, if you get lucky, you can find books such as these in your local thriftstore. I have found several science and technology books in our local thriftstores for as little as fifty cents. Also, many public libraries give away their old books on a regular basis to make room for newer books. Just because a book is slightly old, doesn't neccessarily mean that the information contained in it is worthless. Sometimes, it may be slighly outdated, but even so, there can be useful information there. Another good source of information, is just to take a drive around your locality. If you see a house that has solar panels installed, maybe ask the homeowner if he/she is willing to share some information about their experiences using solar energy.
Like everything, there are some pros and cons. Make sure you know if Solar Panels are right for you, before you invest a lot of money in them. Most importantly, you have to make sure that you have a place that receives a lot of daytime sunshine. If your house is surrounded by trees, solar panels aren't going to be of much use to you. Also, you need to have sufficient space, as solar panels take up a lot of room. The more surface area you have exposed to the sunlight, the more solar energy you can turn into electricity. Most solar panels that I've seen installed on houses are on the roof; however, solar panels don't HAVE to be on the roof. They can be anywhere where there is enough space, sunlight, and where the wiring is protected from the elements.
Good luck with your project, and thank you for helping to save our environment..

You can find nearly every solar panel kit that is listed on Amazon here, nicely catagorized by the type of silicon crystal structure. You can also find books on the subject of solar panels, solar panel kits, and solar panel design and installation here.
