These solar
panels offer
tighter power tolerances than many
other brands. At 0 + 3% watts you're
guaranteed of getting more the the
power that you paid for.
A Solar System May Actually Increase Your
Home's Resale Value
According to a recent study by ICF
Consulting (funded by HUD and the EPA) energy
saving measures such as solar can add $20 of
home value for every $1 of yearly energy cost savings.
While some brands only offer a 20 or less warranty. The solar panels that are used in these Discount Solar Supply
systems come with a
linear 25 year manufacturer's warranty. The
Schneider XW grid tie battery backup inverter in
these kits with a 10 year factory warranty when
you take advantage of our free "Sunsational
Offer".
These solar panels use solar cells that have been cut from solid ingots of silicon
When
shopping for solar panels, always insist on
solar panels that use solar cells that have
been cut from a solid silicon ingot.
Many of the solar panels that are on the
market that use solar cells that are not cut
from solid silicon ingots may offer far lower
efficiencies, poorer tolerances or lesser warranties.
MYTH:
"Solar Panel Efficiency Affects Your Return On
Investment."
FACT:
When It Comes To The Financial Return On
Your Solar Investment, Only Three Specifications Matter.
1. The Solar Panel's PTC to STC Ratio.
2. The Solar Panel's Negative Tolerance Rating.
3. The Inverters CEC Efficiency Rating.
Despite what
you may hear from salesmen trying to push
their "Most powerful solar panels on the
planet" a solar panel's efficiency rating has
absolutely no effect on your
return on investment.
Efficiency
primarily effects the solar panel's physical
size not its power output.
In fact, the more you pay for higher solar
panel efficiency, the longer your return will
take.
Simply Better Components
In an effort to be more competitive, many
dealers have resorted to offering thin light
duty mounting rails that require many more
roof penetrations, solar panels with poorer per Watt PTC ratings and lesser warranties and or solar panels that use cells that are not cut from a solid ingot of silicon.
Here at Discount Solar Supply
we never skimp on quality. Every system that we sell includes only the very best heavy duty components available on today's market.
And that's not just talk. In a side by side comparison we'll prove why our name brand top of the line equipment outperforms the competition hands down at a price that can't be beat.
BEWARE OF MISSING PARTS!
Were you nearly bamboozled
by the lure of a what appeared to be a low price
per watt, only to discover that the other
dealer's low price
didn't include tile hooks or flashings, or a
complete permit submission package or a
customized racking layout.

WHY SOLAR PANEL EFFICIENCY MEANS
ALMOST NOTHING WHILE INVERTER EFFICIENCY MATTERS
MOST.
When selecting a solar panel for your installation, you may hear
solar panel manufacturers boast about their panel's efficiency as if though
you'll somehow get more power with their higher efficiency solar panel.
Unfortunately for the most part that's not true. A 240 watt solar panel with a
lower efficiency rating produces the same amount of power as a 240 watt solar
panel with a higher efficiency rating.
The only real difference between the two panels is that a higher
efficiency 240 watt solar panel will have slightly smaller physical dimensions
than the 240 watt lower efficiency solar panel. So in most cases, paying a
premium for a higher efficiency solar panel is simply not worth the investment.
Inverter efficiency on the other hand, is a whole other story.
Rather than higher efficiency solar panels, you should be spending your money on
the highest efficiency inverter that you can afford. Inverter efficiency is directly related to energy production. The higher the
inverter's efficiency, the more power is converted from DC into AC. And every percentage point matters.
Here's an example: Let's say you are converting 6,000
watts of PV production per hour from DC into AC. A 1.5% lower inverter
efficiency rating when applied to 6,000 watts is 90 watts per hour or 450 watt
hours with 5 hours of peak sunshine per day.
Let's say you only have (300) five hour days of peak sunshine per
year. That's 300 times 450 watt hours which equals 135,000 watt hours or 135
kilowatt hours of power lost per year.
Multiply 135,000 times 25 years of production if you continued to
use a 1.5% lower efficiency inverter and you will have lost, 3,375,000 watt
hours of power.
The Lower Your Grid Tie Inverter's Efficiency, The Poorer The Return On Your Investment.

USE THIS SYSTEM TO CHARGE THAT ELECTRIC
VEHICLE THAT YOU'VE HAD YOUR EYE ON !
If you've been considering a grid tie solar system for your home or business,
and you've been eyeing one of those slick new
plug in hybrid or pure electric vehicles that are are just around the
corner or the idea of driving around on free
fuel for life sounds appealing, well then it's now time to celebrate ! After nearly a
year of debates and nine previous attempts, Congress finally approved a bill that not only
extends the Federal 30% tax credit for solar
but also removes the $2,000.00 cap that
existed on the previous residential tax
credit. That's an
incredible 30% with no cap for residential
and commercial installations !
And if that isn't
great enough news, how about a $7,500.00
Federal tax credit on the purchase of a brand
new plug in hybrid or pure electric vehicle !

With the cost of
electricity going through the roof, it is now time to start
thinking about your energy budget as a whole.
You
can't make your own gasoline and you can't make your
own natural gas, but now you CAN make your
own electricity. And the best part about it is that the fuel to make own
electricity falls from the sky everyday for free.
Thousands of utility customers throughout the U.S., who were tired of the high
cost of electricity have taken advantage of the huge rebates and tax credits
which are available for the installation of solar energy systems on their homes
and businesses.
For example, the Federal Government is offering a
30% tax credit
with absolutely no cap residential and commercial applications. And unlike
like the old solar energy systems of yesteryear that only produced hot water,
these new systems actually produce electricity ! Clean reliable electricity to
power air conditioning, lights,
TVs, pumps, refrigerators, computers, virtually any appliance with free energy from the Sun.
The staff Here at Discount Solar Supply
are experts in the design and implementation of systems that qualify for
many State rebate programs. We offer free assistance in the design of your system and can even assist you with the submission of your application to your State.
Depending on the size system you choose and the number of loads you have running during the day, it is actually possible watch the power company's meter run backwards.

When it comes to purchasing a solar system
for your home or business it is crucial that
you take a very close look at the solar
panels that the dealer is offering you.
After all, solar panels are the workhorse of
any solar system. Far too many consumers
simply purchase what ever it is that a
dealer happens to have available without
even looking at a specification sheet.
Performance that is lacking by just a few
percentage points or an inferior warranty
can make all the difference in the world
over the expected life of a solar panel.
With more than ten
years of experience operating our own state of the art, in-house solar repair
center, we know what technologies perform well in the real world and what
technologies do not.

Over the
years, we've seen expensive, name brand,
solar panels fail only after a few
months worth of use. We've even seen
popular, name brand solar panels fail soon
after the manufacturer closed its doors
leaving its customers with no warranty.
This is
why it is important that you choose a
solar panel manufacturer that is well
established in the industry and has the
financial strength to be there if the
need arises. This is exactly why we
chose U.S. made Auxin solar
modules for our
Patriot series solar systems.
Thin
might be in when it comes to
waistlines and the latest HDTV sets but

**(Your rebate amount may vary depending on
expected system performance and will
be calculated based on equipment ratings and installation factors, such as geographic location, solar module tilt angle and azimuth angle and shading.)
Please note that many states and or utilities will
use the the AC rating of the your system's equipment
and not the DC rating of your system's equipment
when determining the amount of your rebate. The AC
rating of your equipment is typically calculated by
multiplying the PTC rated output of your solar
panels by the number of solar panels multiplied by
the CEC weighted efficiency of your inverter,
multiplied by your system's design factor which is
based on module tilt angle, azimuth angle, shading
and geographic location, multiplied by the current
per AC watt rebate amount. Please contact your state
or utility company to determine equipment ratings
and exactly how your rebate will be calculated and
what your rebate amount will be. In the
event that you have paid Discount Solar Supply
a deposit or have
paid in full for the purchase of a grid
tie solar system and you are unable to
secure an approval on your rebate
reservation from your state or utility
company’s rebate administrator, we
hereby agree to issue you a full refund
of your deposit or a full refund of the
full payment that you made to us toward
the purchase of your solar system so
long as the product has not been shipped
to you. In the event that you have paid
in full and your solar system’s
components have already been shipped to
you and you are unable to secure an
approval of your rebate reservation from
your utility company’s rebate
administrator, Discount Solar Supply
hereby agrees to issue you a full
refund of the full payment minus
shipping costs, upon the return of the
solar system’s unused, undamaged
equipment so long as said equipment is
returned to our warehouse within 30 days
of its delivery to your site. Please
note that as a courtesy, Discount Solar Supply
offers free assistance
to its customers in filling out their
rebate applications but assumes no
liability or responsibility for securing
a rebate for you nor any liability or
responsibility for securing any specific
rebate amount. For this reason Discount Solar Supply
