The biggest promotion of the solar energy, the reduction of costs and the possibility of achieving energy independence increase the interest and curiosity of many people for the solar technology, so doubts arise about these systems.
One of the most frequent doubts of those who want to install a solar energy system in their home is whether it is better to install the solar on the ceiling or on the floor. There is no single answer to this question, it depends on each case.
In general, experts recommend installing solar panels on the roof as they better capture the solar radiation and they are more efficient than those that are placed on the floor. But there are houses where the roof extension is not enough to generate enough energy or the orientation for capturing a large amount of energy is not favorable, that is why they are installed on the floor near the house.
The solar panels that are installed on the ground are due to not having enough space and it must be taken into account that the place where they will be placed is clear of trees or other constructions because the shadow complicates the capture of solar radiation.
Today there are several models of solar panels for the roof, in addition to solar tiles and other systems such as solar mirrors that allow the existing structure to be used to lower installation costs.
La photovoltaic industry has developed options for every need even when there is a great variety of models of solar systems we can choose not only those with the highest performance and efficiency but also those that can be aesthetically included in the house in a harmonious way.
Before buying a system, we must inform ourselves and ask for technical advice so that it is easier for us to choose the most suitable system for our needs and adjusted to our budget.
Each home has particular characteristics that it is convenient to take into account in order to take advantage of the solar potential and be able to produce electricity adequately.
