It depends on how many solar panels you are installing, but only takes around one day to install them. It can be short as few hours or long as a two days.

Is home solar power a good choice?
Home solar power can be an excellent choice if there is space to place the panels. Why the panels are quite costly, the long term money saved is definitely worth the value.
How long will it take for solar panels to become cost effective?
The length of time it takes for your solar panels to become cost effective really depends on how well they were installed in the first place. In first few years, you should see how effective the panels are in reducing costs.
How long do solar panels last?
An average solar panel lasts for about 25 years.
Do solar panels have to be thrown out?
Yes they do if they are worn out however solar panels last for an average of 50 YEARS so dont worry about that for a long time
Does a pool pump work harder when solar panels are added?
Pool Pumps are designed and built to work hard. You may create some additional back pressure by adding solar panels. as long as the pump is sufficient to fill the solar panels with water you should have no harm done by adding solar to your pool
Are home solar generators as productive as a gas powered generator?
Home solar generators are usually as productive as gas powered generators. Solar panels are collecting power throughout the day and store it in batteries while gas generators are for instant power. Solar generators are more useful for long term power needs.
How long does a solar cycle last?
Most solar panels would last about 25 years Most solar panels would last about 25 years ---------------------------------------------------------------- from www.solarcells101.com Most solar panels are rated 25 years But its hard to say because most of the first solar panels in the 1980s are still putting out power they will have a power loss over time but free power for this long is very cool David www.solarcells101.com
What should I know about installing solar panels in northern climates where sunshine may be limited?
You can still use solar panels, but they won't be able to power your home for as long during certain time periods. Thus, you'll still need to be fairly reliant on the electrical grid to be able to last throughout the year.
What are bad things about solar power?
Its expensive to build, or put solar panels on house roofs. It has a long payback time. Solar panels are ugly and big. The sun isnt always out, especially in places like UK, where as Spain it would be perfect.
What is energy payback time solar panels?
In brief energy payback time for solar panels is how long does a Photovoltaic system have to operate to recover the energy and associated generation of pollution and CO2-that went into making the system.
How long do satellites last?
Some satellites last longer then others. The age can be determined by the efficiency of the machinery that it works with. Example: One of the satellite's solar panels have been damaged by debris. That satellite will not last as long as one that has its solar panels at full efficiency.
How long does it take for a solar panel to pay for itself?
If we do not consider the rebates that some countries offer on solar panels, the payback normally runs between 20 and 25 years. The long payback though ignores the increased benefits to the planet and the possibility of increased electric costs over that time period. Panels will also degrade with time. Warmer climates may see a slightly longer payback period, due to the decreased performance of solar panels. I have several panels on my home and they actually produce more power in the winter months, despite the shorter daylight periods, due to the cooler temperatures
