Solar Laminate Panels Help Homeowners Go Greener With Less Intrusion

Solar laminate panels are a new way to harness the sun's energy in order to use solar power, and Metal Master Roofing and Construction is at the forefront of this technology in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

Arlington, Texas (PRWEB) November 1, 2009 -- Solar laminate panels are a new way to harness the sun's energy in order to use solar power, and Metal Master Roofing and Construction is at the forefront of this technology in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

The solar laminate panels, is available for metal or PVC flat roofs, come with myriad benefits.

"Of course, the sun's energy is constant, which means we won't run out of solar power since it is a renewable resource," says company owner Phil Miller. "No other roofing material offers this kind of constant energy."

For homeowners concerned about the environment, solar power offers another bonus: It is non-polluting, meaning no release of greenhouse gases and no harm to the Earth's ecosystems.

"We have many customers who would like to use solar power, but when they think of it, they think of those big, black, ugly panels that have to be put up on the roof," Miller says. "That's the beauty of the solar laminate panels. They are much thinner and flexible, and more versatile in their use. Plus, they take up a lot less space than traditional solar panels, which means they blend into the look of your roof."

In the Dallas/Fort Worth area, cost and heat are probably the biggest factors for a homeowner in choosing to put the solar laminate panels on their roof. Because they are thinner than solar panels of the past, these laminate panels cost less because they are smaller and thus use less material. And as temperatures go up - a definite concern in the Metroplex area - the older solar panels tend to decrease their energy output; not so with the newer panels. The solar laminate panels not only will not suffer decreased output as the heat rises, they actually may even increase their output.

"We specialize in the installation of UNI-SOLAR laminate panels," Miller says. "UNI-SOLAR is easily the industry leader in this growing technology and the only company to produce these thin panels in commercially viable volumes. The company's laminates are on many government buildings and schools throughout the U.S. - and all of UNI-SOLAR's products are made in this country."

Although installing solar power as a roofing option is more expensive than typical roofing choices, it does come with incentives and rebates for solar power installation in Texas for both residential and commercial structures. Earlier this year, the Texas Senate passed a $500 million solar energy rebate program, allowing Texans to get back thousands of dollars through rebates, federal tax incentives and lower energy bills. And if a customer's homeowners' association has banned solar roofing in the past, the program now forbids them from doing so now.

"There simply are no negatives to installing this product, and the government practically pays you to do so," Miller says. "At Metal Master Roofing and Construction, we have the experience necessary to ensure your solar laminate panels are installed correctly and will be low maintenance on your home or business in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. All of our roofers receive training directly from the manufacturer, and these panels come with tremendous warranties backed by the manufacturer and us."
