Stepping on solar panels is not recommended; it can create microcracks which may damage efficiency and lifespan. Microcracks are tiny fractures that can form in solar cells from a range of causes, including poor production, rough handling, and everyday weather stresses like wind or.

Orient panels true south when possible—up to +30% gain. Assess roof slope—if aligned, flush-mount; if flat or misaligned, consider tilt frames balancing cost vs gain. Use simulation tools (PVWatts etc. ) for fine-tuning—helps quantify real-world ROI.
