A good outcome depends on roof conditions, system sizing, and how the project moves through permitting and inspection. Start with the site review. Roof age, material type, and shading from trees or nearby structures can affect production. A proper plan includes panel placement, inverter selection, and a realistic production estimate based on your location and usage patterns. If you want more resilience, you can also evaluate battery storage to cover outages or support load shifting.
Permits and inspections are another key step. In Los Angeles, projects typically need permit coordination and an inspection process before the system can be turned on. Ask what the installer includes for permit handling, interconnection, and any required documentation. Clear communication about these steps helps avoid delays.
After installation, monitoring tools make a difference. System monitoring can help you track production over time and spot performance changes early. Depending on the property, you may also ask about cleaning needs and maintenance guidance. Panels can stay productive for years when the system is designed well and performance is monitored.
AWS Solar supports Los Angeles property owners with solar design guidance, installation coordination, battery options, upgrades, and monitoring support to help match a system to energy goals and site conditions.
