Solar Critter Guard

176 Feet of Critter Guard on Long Beach Island

Andrew from Brant Beach, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since April of 2026. In May we fitted 176 feet of six-inch black PVC-coated critter guard around an existing solar array. Barrier island roofs are a particular case. Gulls and other shore birds are larger and more determined than the squirrels most guard is fitted against, and a nest under an array on Long Beach Island is as likely to be theirs as anything else. The mesh runs the whole perimeter, which is the only edge that matters, and it is coated black so it disappears against […]

New Roof, New Array and Critter Guard in South Bound Brook

James from South Bound Brook, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since May of 2023. That summer the old array came off, the roof was replaced beneath it, and a new array went back on: a single layer of shingles stripped to the plywood and 578 square feet of charcoal Timberline HDZ laid with a 50-year warranty in June, then 14 REC 420-watt panels making 5.88 kW on a SolarEdge HD Wave inverter in July, estimated at 6,889 kWh in the first year. Doing it in that order is the sensible sequence when a roof is near

101 Feet of Critter Guard on an Ocean City Array

Bill from Ocean City, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since May of 2026. In June we fitted 101 feet of six-inch black PVC-coated critter guard around an existing solar array. Guard is almost always bought after the fact, because it is not part of a standard solar installation and most owners never hear of it until something has already moved in underneath. The gap beneath the panels is sheltered, shaded and warm, and on a barrier island it is one of the few genuinely dry places on a roof, which makes it valuable property to a

228 Feet of Critter Guard Around an Existing Array in Manahawkin

Nick from Manahawkin, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2026. In July we fitted 228 feet of six-inch black PVC-coated critter guard around an existing solar array. Most solar owners never think about the gap beneath the panels until something moves into it: it is dry, shaded, warm from the array above and sheltered from anything that hunts, which makes it close to ideal for squirrels and nesting birds. Once they settle in the trouble is not only the mess, because the wiring under an array is exposed, easy to chew and awkward to

9.2 kW Leased Array in Metuchen, Fixed Rate for 25 Years

Merritt from Metuchen, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2026. We installed a 9.2 kW array in August: 20 REC 460-watt panels with Enphase IQ8X microinverters, estimated to produce 10,735 kWh in the first year, and 148 feet of critter guard around the edges to keep animals out of the gap beneath the panels. The array is leased rather than bought, at 16.6 cents per kWh against the 29 cents PSEG was charging at the time of the install, and the lease carries no annual escalator at all: that rate is fixed for the

10.9 kW Array and 20 kW Standby Serviced in Princeton

Alastair from Princeton, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2019. The 20 kW Generac standby was installed by another company in July of 2013, and the servicing switched to Green Sun that year, running from the one-year visit through the six-year, most recently completed in December of 2025 with 96 hours on the meter. In November of 2019 we installed a 10.89 kW array: 33 Panasonic panels split across two roof faces, 27 facing south and 6 facing east, on a SolarEdge HD Wave inverter, estimated to produce 12,422 kWh in its first year,

Solar Panel Installation in Hazlet, NJ | 8.04 kW LG NeON 2 Array

Jessica from Hazlet, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since July of 2019. The array was commissioned that August: 24 LG NeON 2 panels rated 335 watts each on a SolarEdge HD Wave inverter, 8.04 kW in total and designed for about 9,479 kilowatt-hours a year. It went up with 140 feet of critter guard around the perimeter. The LG panels carry a 25-year materials warranty rather than the twelve that was standard at the time, which is the part of a solar quote worth reading closely — the panels are the component expected to still be

Roof and Solar in Franklin Park, NJ | 11.34 kW Array on a New Roof

Sherjeel from Franklin Park, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2019. Both jobs were bought on the same day and done ten days apart that September, in the order that avoids paying to do either one twice. The roof came first: a single layer of old shingles off 3,600 square feet, Biscayne GAF Timberline HDZ laid in its place under a 50-year warranty. The array followed on the seventeenth — 36 all-black Hanwha Q.PEAK DUO panels, 11.34 kW rated and designed for about 13,920 kilowatt-hours a year, with 157 feet of critter guard fitted

Solar Panel Installation in Kenilworth, NJ | 5.99 kW All-Black Array

David from Kenilworth, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2019. The array was commissioned that August: 19 all-black Hanwha Q.PEAK DUO panels on a SolarEdge HD Wave inverter, 5.985 kW rated and designed for about 8,486 kilowatt-hours a year. It went up with 112 feet of critter guard fitted around the perimeter, closing the sheltered gap between the panels and the roof before anything could nest in it. Nineteen panels is a compact array by our standards, sized to the roof and to what the household actually uses rather than to the largest number

Solar Critter Guard and Solar Panel Installation in Hazlet, NJ

Solar Panel Installation in Hazlet, NJ | 5 kW All-Black Array

Nicholas from Hazlet, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2019. The array was commissioned that September: 16 all-black Hanwha Q.PEAK DUO panels on a SolarEdge HD Wave inverter, 5.04 kW rated and designed for about 5,822 kilowatt-hours a year. It went up with 80 feet of critter guard around it, closing the sheltered gap beneath the panels before anything could nest there. This is a modest system by our standards and deliberately so — sized to the roof and the household rather than to the largest number that would fit, which is why the
