David from Berkeley Heights, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since January of 2021. The job was a removal, completed on 30 January: 25 panels taken off the roof along with the mounting system, the inverters, the disconnects, the exterior conduit and wiring and the meters, all removed and disposed of. The flashing and lag bolts were deliberately left in place for the roofer to take out, and the rooftop electrical runs were disconnected rather than cut. Leaving the bolts is the safer sequence rather than an omission: every one drawn out of a deck is a hole that has to be sealed, so the crew stripping the roof deals with them once instead of somebody dealing with them twice.
Why David chose Green Sun Energy Services

Solar questions from Berkeley Heights homeowners
Are panels designed for the wind near Berkeley Heights?
Yes. The array and its mounting system have to be designed to resist the applicable wind loads, and coastal and exposed locations can carry different wind-design conditions from sheltered inland ones. It is one of the reasons the mounting system and its engineering are chosen for the site rather than by habit.
Can panels cover the whole roof?
Not necessarily. Structural limits, plumbing vents, mechanical equipment and code-required access or setback areas all reduce the usable area. A design complies with the roof-access provisions rather than filling every available square foot.
What happens to a solar lease when the house is sold?
Most residential leases provide a process for transferring the agreement to a qualified buyer, though the requirements vary by provider. Before signing it is worth understanding how a purchaser qualifies, what the transfer involves, any fees, the buyout options, the timing, and what happens if a buyer declines to take it on.
