NEW OFF GRID SOLAR SYSTEM 

You should build a ground mounted array easier to keep panels clean and service and make the array adjustable to adjust to the seasons and will produce more power . With your wood skills and saw mill you could make an awesome array . Life Uncontained Channel in Texas built an adjustable array

Wishing you all the best with your new Solar Equipment. Sounds as though you have some back-up help you can call on which is great. Come on WOODMISER got to get some milling done so I can get things done. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.

good video you have much better help than me. the ones i have on the roof do not produre much power and if it snows they need to be cleaned off. i think on the south wall may be better. i think the power house is a good idea in case of battery fire. i wish you the best of luck take care, be safe and well

I THINK you have enough room in that attic space to accommodate the inverters and batteries etc. That way they would be close and any heating needed could cover all of it...

Im also in E TN, we are 100% on solar, i installed our whole system so if you need any help or have any questions feel free to reach out, im also an affiliate of signature solar so in the future i can save you some money with my link if you need anything else from them

Seems like you have a great group of friends to help out with the solar system.

👏🏻👍🏻🙂🙋‍♂️🤗😁

Your not going to know what to do with all the solar power lol great addition

Ciao buon fine settimana.

Traditionally, the arrow on packaging should be accompanied by the phrase ; “This End Up “ Without that phrase , who knows what it means ? LOL

Enjoyed watching

Who knows Richard, Mr. COOL might have AC in your future. One luxury you forgot to mention was maybe a microwave

Richard in the bifacial solar panels they cannot be flush on the roof, as the back side to absorb sunlight reflected off of surfaces like the ground. Installing them flat on a roof can cause problem that shortens the life and generation capacity of the solar panels. These solar panels require that you keep the largest passable gap between the panels and the roof. Flush mounting of bifacial solar panels can cause the to over heat and heat up the roof under them. You are better off building a carport next to your sawmill or shop where the underside of the panels are capable of capturing the light or a solar array system where the panels back side is open and have full air flow. Monofacial panels is what is required for flush mounting on the roof as you are talking about, in the way you are talking, where as bifacial solar panels require a special mounting system to hold them because of the of their design, a special rail system, like Lumnah acres has. Also bifacial solar panels require increase maintenance which include cleaning at least once a month, other wise the build up a film on the panel that reduces the efficiency. OG&E has bifacial solar panels in their solar farm at the Mustang power plant and they have a employee whose sole job keep the panels clean. so are you willing once a month to climb on the roof and clean the solar panels, these are not a install and forget like the Monofacial panels, as they require regular maintenance to keep them at peek performance, and the proper angle to the sun by seasons you need to be able to adjust the panels to these angles Spring: 29.6° Summer: 14.6° Fall: 29.6° Winter: 44.6° or have a an static angel of 29.6° from horizontal. In the winter months you need the steper angle to have peak performance in your area of Tennessee. You will be dissatisfied with your solar system as so many are who go with a flat mount on the roof wit the improper solar angle.

Will they stay installed in one place or will they be able to move depending on the position of the sun?

Looks like it was shipped upside down to me " I am old school though ".

I’m assuming you paid extra for the bi-facial panels, if so you’re wasting your money by mounting them flat against the roof. Just my opinion. If you’re not using solar racking you will have to bond each individual panel together and ground them. I always use #6 bare copper. I always ground mount if I can. Maintenance is much easier

Would love to know the brand / model of panels you bought. I have the EG4 6000k inverters and two of the wall hanger 48v EG4 batteries for my off grid cabin. I have older panels but would like to add some more.
