Disadvantages of Solar Panels and Why You Shouldn't

Worry about Them



Households running electric boilers know they have the option of
installing solar panelling to help them generate electricity. There are so
many benefits to them, such as reducing your carbon footprint and
making sure you pay less on your heating bills. We are not going to lie,
there are disadvantages associated with them. There are cons as well as
pros. This is why we wanted to clear the air on the matter. Yes, there are
disadvantages, but there are many reasons why thesedo not actually
matter. Read on for more information, or visit our site to find out more.


Aesthetic Concerns

It is true that some people simply dont like the aesthetic look of solar
panels. Some people believe they look like eyesores. The truth is fashion
is changing in the housing trade and the ultra-modern panels are a
fashion statement. More and more new homes are having these installed
by default. The aesthetic concerns may be a problem, but any worries
should be tempered by the fact you are going to save hundreds if not
thousands of pounds over the course of your lifetime on energy bills.

100% Sun

Most households will not be able to become self-sufficient in the UK. They
will have to have a backup electricity generating option. The reason for
this is that we have long periods throughout the year where we do not
have a lot of sunlight. This is especially the case in places like Scotland
where, in the winter, days are incredibly short and nights are long. This
should not be a problem, though. Yes, you will not have sun all the time,
but it does not cost you anything if your solar panels are not generating
electricity. You will not pay anything more for them to be on standby.

Moreover,there is nothing stopping you from remaining connected to the
National Grid through your conventional electricity provider. It will
notaffect the amount you save!

Expensive Installation Cost

Much has been made of how expensive these panels are to install. We
cannot deny it will cost thousands of pounds to install new solar panels.
What people have to remember is this is a long-term investment. You are
supposed to recoup the cost over an extended period. Theres no record
of a household with solar panelling ever not making that money back
through savings.

If you are regularly using panel heaters to heat your home, youre going
to save a lot of money simply through generating free energy from
sunlight.

Furthermore, you can sell any leftover energy you generate back to the
National Grid at full market price. This allows you to make money whilst
you are saving money. These days you can expect it to take roughly ten
years for you to get the money back. It can vary depending on what part
of the UK you live in, the direction your house is facing, and the weather
over the next few years. Some factors are unpredictable, which means it
could be shorter or it could be longer. The bottom line is you will always
get the money you spent on the installation back.

Electrical Heating Supplies are the masters of electric boilers. They can
make sure your panel heaters are running at optimum efficiency.
