Are Solar Installations In 7 hours Really Possible?

As technology continues to advance solar providers like Atria have broken the norm of installation processes that go on for weeks and sometimes even months. In a world where time is essence and homeowners are opting for solar more and more to save on their electricity bills Atria offers 7 hours installation time which is unheard of in the history of solar installations. 

However, an expected question that arises amongst homeowners looking for solar is - Is it really possible to install a solar in just 7 hours? 

With advanced technologies paired with streamlined processes, it is indeed possible to do 7 hours installations. Atria has mastered this through advanced research from industry professionals with decades of experience in the solar industry. Let's break it down.  

Solar Installation Process 

Solar installations have always been associated with lengthy timelines. These timelines go from weeks to sometimes even months depending on the complexity and installation provider. This cause distress to customers that are busy with their everyday lives and do not possess the time required to keep assisting with such a time-consuming process. 

It is crucial to understand about what a typical installation process consists of, why it takes time to gain better understanding of the areas of focus that can be mastered to achieve a quick installation within 7 hours. 

The following outline the primary points of concern in the steps of a solar power system installation that inhibit homeowners from a hassle-free and quick installation. 

1. Site Assessments: This assessment usually involves measuring roof space, conducting shadow analysis, and cabling feasibility checks etc. It is typically conducted by skilled professionals that have experience in dealing with solar power systems and have a thorough understanding of the required electrical needs.  

2. Components: The required components like the determined number panels, required cabling equipment etc are procured and arrive at the customer’s house. This process is where most solar providers take a lot of time to aggregate the components through the weeks before the installation at the site of installation.  

3. Installation: This involves assembling all the components and building the mounting structure, mounting the panels, installing the inverter, doing the wiring, cabling, and channelling as well as earthing. Building a structure on the rooftop requires care and technical expertise, also aggregators of components usually do not work in unison and hence each step of the installation process is conducted on different days based on their availability.  

4. Net Metering: The customer needs to apply to the local DISCOMs such as BESCOM and sign the power purchase agreement, after which the personnel arrive on a suitable date and verifies the installation and sets up the net meter. Processes that involve government approvals are long and time consuming due to the lack of personnel or high demand and unavailability, causing a long delay until the turn arrives.  

   
   

   

   
   

5. Activation: Once the net meter is setup and the installation is verified the solar system can be activated for energy production. The initial activation is essential to understand the mechanism of the system for which experienced personnel who understand the installed system is necessary. In cases where the solar system provider or related personnel are not local then this would also be delayed based on their availability.  

   
   

How does 7 hours installation work?  

1. Pre-Installation Preparation 

   Right Solar Providers are prepared with all the necessary steps before the installation day as service begins on day one. They are ready with significant flexibility to cater to varying installation dates of customers and are open to changes.   

2. Component Planning 

   A thorough site assessment prior to the installation date ensures all the requirements are assessed based on the needs of the customers home and procured accordingly. This ensure there is no hassle on the day of the installation. An experienced site assessor addresses homeowner’s concerns while also makes note of all the changes required to accommodate the solar power system to the customer’s home needs, orientation and structure. 

3. Skilled Installation Team 

   Ensuring the installation team is skilled and experienced to install the system is very essential for a smooth installation process. The team should be ready for any unexpected challenges that might occur during the installation and should be capable of handling such situation with ease. They also need to be thorough with following safety precautions and follow standard procedures to ensure a successful installation. 

   

4. Streamlined Processes 

   On the day of the installation all the components need to be present at the site so that the team can complete the installation in a structured process with minimal disruptions. The team needs to arrive at the location with a prior understanding of the site and upcoming challenges which is only possible with a thorough prior assessment and clear communication and understanding amongst the team. 

   
   

What does a 7-hour installation really mean? 

1. Minimal Disruptions: With quick and hassle-free installation, customers do not have to be available their house for receiving the components or instructing and monitoring the installation. Instead of waiting for days, or weeks, they can have the solar system set up in just a few hours. 

2. Immediate Energy Saving: The customer can start generating electricity as soon as the system is installed and start seeing the results from the day of installation. 

3. Same Day Activation: Great solar providers get liasoning work done prior to the installation so that the net metering is done on the same day ensuring that the system is activated on the same day. 

Conclusion: Quality vs Speed 

A quick installation does not mean lost quality, which often tends to be the primary concern of customers. The execution of an organized and process-oriented installation, with high quality components and an experienced and skilled team. With the right approach and planning a quick installation guarantees long term durability and reliability.
