Hail and Solar Panels: How DFW Systems Are Built to Survive
North Texas hailstorms are no joke. Modern modules and installation methods stand up to them.
Tier-1 solar panels are tested to withstand 1-inch hail at 50+ mph. Many premium panels are now rated for 2-inch hail. In practice, DFW solar systems regularly come through hailstorms with no damage when the roof itself sustains losses.
Insurance carriers generally cover solar systems under your homeowner's policy. We document every installation thoroughly so claims, when they happen, move quickly.
If your roof is approaching the end of its life, replacing it before installing solar is almost always the right call. We coordinate roofing and solar work to minimize labor cost.
