When installed correctly and professionally, a solar installation should not negatively impact a roof. In fact, panels can protect the portion of the roof they cover from the elements, potentially extending its lifespan. For example, during Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico, many homes with solar panels experienced less roof damage compared to those without. The panels provided an additional layer of protection against wind and debris, demonstrating their durability and added benefit during extreme weather conditions. 🏠🔨 #ProfessionalInstall #NationwideSolar #ResidentialSolar
