Veronica from Whitehouse Station, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since February of 2022. The job was a removal rather than an installation: 30 panels making 6.75 kW taken down in June of 2022, along with the mounting system, the inverters, the disconnects, the exterior conduit and wiring, and the meters. The flashing and lag bolts were deliberately left in place and sealed rather than pulled, because every fastener drawn out of a roof is another hole to close and another chance of a leak years later. Taking an array off properly is a real piece of work in its own right, and it is not the part of solar anybody advertises – but a roof that needs replacing, a house being sold or a system at the end of its life all need it doing without damage left behind.
Why Veronica chose Green Sun Energy Services
One company removes the solar, fixes the roof, corrects what is underneath and puts everything back right.

Solar questions from Whitehouse Station homeowners
How much weight do panels add?
The exact load depends on the modules and the mounting system, but residential solar generally adds a relatively modest distributed dead load. Weight alone does not settle the structural question: wind uplift, attachment spacing, roof framing and snow loads matter as much.
Does a solar installation need permits in Whitehouse Station?
Yes. A permanently installed photovoltaic system normally requires construction permits under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code. A residential project commonly involves electrical review, building and structural review, fire-access considerations and municipal inspections.
Which direction should the panels face?
South-facing roof planes generally give excellent annual production, but east and west can be very productive too. The design should compare the modelled annual production of each available plane rather than rejecting anything that is not due south.
