Types of Solar systems we offer for Gordonville, PA

In Gordonville, we offer three main solar system options—each tailored to meet different energy goals and property setups.

Grid-tie Solar Systems

Solar systems that are tied to the grid work alongside your local utility network. When your system produces more electricity than your home uses, the excess power flows back into the grid. Through a system called net metering, your utility company gives you credit for this surplus energy. These credits can then be used to lower your future electricity bills.

Grid-Tied Solar
Hybrid Solar Systems

Hybrid systems give you the best of both worlds: access to the power grid and backup batteries. You can use the solar energy your panels produce right away, store extra power in your batteries, or send any leftover energy back to the grid. This means you’ll have backup power during outages and can still earn credits from your utility company for the energy you don’t use.

Hybrid Solar
Off Grid Solar Systems

Off-grid solar systems operate entirely separate from the utility grid. During the day, solar panels generate electricity, and any excess energy is stored in large batteries. This stored power can then be used at night or during cloudy weather, ensuring a reliable supply around the clock. With the right setup, you can live comfortably without ever relying on the grid.

Components In A Residential Solar System

Understanding the basic elements of a home solar system is an important first step for anyone considering solar energy. Belmont Solar is proud to support homeowners in Gordonville with reliable service and professional installation. Every solar setup we complete includes three key parts: solar panels that collect energy from the sun, an inverter that converts it into usable electricity, and a sturdy mounting system that keeps the equipment secure and operating efficiently for years to come.

Solar Panels

Solar panels are one of the most important components in your solar system, capturing sunlight and converting it into electricity your home can use. They are designed to be both durable and efficient, providing a steady and dependable power supply over many years of use.

Inverters

Inverters are a key part of your solar setup, converting the direct current produced by your panels into the alternating current your household appliances need. They are built to operate reliably and support efficient energy use, helping your system function properly and supply consistent power.

Racking System

The mounting system provides the structural base for your solar panels, securing them in place and angling them to absorb maximum sunlight throughout the day. A well-built and dependable racking setup is important for the overall stability and performance of your solar system. Belmont Solar uses the Tough Trac racking system, trusted for its durability and consistent support over time.

Solar Panel FAQ

Yes, there are many variables that determine which kind of permit you will need. You will likely need a zoning permit and electrical permit, and potentially a building permit as well. For questions specific to permitting, please contact the Lancaster Township Planning & Zoning Department.

Belmont Solar takes care of filing the correct permits for all solar installation projects.

The cost of going solar depends on a few key factors—like the type of system you choose and your energy goals.

There is no free solar program in Gordonville, or any parts of PA. However, there are a number of incentives that make going solar more affordable. Check them out below!

At Belmont Solar, we carefully design every system to maximize year-round performance—even through Pennsylvania’s snowy winters and overcast days.

Before installation, our team evaluates your property to find the ideal panel placement and tilt angle, reducing shading from trees and helping snow slide off more easily. This thoughtful positioning ensures your panels stay as productive as possible, even in less-than-perfect weather.

While heavy snow can temporarily reduce output, light snow typically melts or slides off on its own. In many cases, panels continue generating some power even when partially covered. And on cloudy days, your system still produces electricity—just at a reduced rate compared to sunny conditions.

With Belmont’s expert approach, you get a solar setup designed to keep your home powered through all four seasons.

Good news for Gordonville homeowners — going solar comes with some powerful financial benefits!

Here are a few ways you can save:

  • Solar Renewable Energy Credits (SRECs): When your system generates clean energy, you earn credits that can be sold for extra income. It’s a great way to turn sunlight into long-term savings.
  • Federal Solar Tax Credit: Right now, you can receive a 30% tax credit on the total cost of your solar installation, making the switch to solar more affordable than ever.
  • Net Metering: If your panels produce more energy than you use, the extra electricity goes back to the grid—and you get credit for it on your utility bill.

These programs make solar a smart investment for Gordonville families—saving you money while powering your home with clean, renewable energy.

What our customers say

I used Belmont for my rooftop solar project and they were great! They were quick to get me a proposal when I first reached out, happy to modify it to suit my needs, offered experienced input and recommendations, and provided a complimentary site visit to go over the specifics and finalize the details before any commitments were made. The installation happened faster than expected and their entire team was responsive to all my questions along the way. The combination of value and service is outstanding! Highly recommend!

Nicholas Piro

Belmont Solar is a great company to work with. They were much cheaper than one of the large solar companies and actually sent an engineer out to help scope out the system. Our install was not the usual setup because we wanted a battery and already had a generator. They got it all installed and it works great. I really enjoyed the whole process. Highly recommended!

James Rumbaugh

Belmont Solar estimated all costs accurately, and including them in their contract with me, for a ground mounted 22 KW solar system installed at my residence. The installation went smoothly. February 15th 2023 was the one year anniversary of the Solar Panels being placed on line by my utility company. In the first 12 months the panels produced 28.8 megawatts of power. All payback calculations presented by Belmont were based on an annual production of 27 megawatts of power. I believe they are reliable and trustworthy.

George Metzler

I’m very happy with my choice to use Belmont Solar for my solar project. I found Ben Zook to be straight-forward and knowledgeable and the installers to be professional and personable.

I talked to three solar firms before deciding to go with Belmont. I ruled out the first firm when I noticed a contentious clause in the fine print of their contract. In final discussions, the third firm promised to get me up and running fast while Belmont promised to do a very neat job. I think this is the reason I ultimately decided to go with Belmont.

During the project, Ben Zook went above and beyond to fix a financing mistake that was clearly my fault and the installers offered to spend extra time in my hot and uncomfortable attic to make the final system look great. The system was finished in a timely fashion, looks awesome and performs as expected. Belmont exceeded my expectations on multiple occasions, which is why I’ve published this review and why I’m recommending them to my father for a ground mount system in the near future.

Although I decided not to install solar at this time, I found Ben to be both knowledgeable and especially honest. His 15+ years of hands-on experience provide him with a wealth of insight.

Mike Heaney

I interviewed several national solar companies looking for the best way to affordably install solar on my house. One told me to remove eleven trees, then they might consider looking at my house. Another offered to share fifteen dollars a month of the savings, if I paid one hundred a month for the privilege. Huh???

Finally a friend suggested Belmont Solar. My first call to Ben Zook put me totally at ease, there was no pressure but much professionalism and incredible knowledge. He quoted me not one or two options, but four. Contrary to one review here, he understood my budget and respected it without a second thought. He is a man of great integrity, you will find out for yourself. I can’t help but laugh at the negative reviews below. He “threatened” me too, why, he even showed up in my yard personally to resolve an unforeseen issue, at no charge. Such a ‘troublemaker’, LOL. He’s a very kind and honest man, period.

Long story short, Isaac and Jonathon came from Belmont for the installation, were perfect gentlemen and extremely helpful and clearly very skilled, and a year later I already have forty percent of my investment back in my bank account. It pays back that fast! I’m already saving my dollars to make my system bigger and would not dream of anyone but Ben and the Belmont team…. and I’m in New England!

Go with the best, Belmont Solar, and trust me when I say it’s smart to go solar. You won’t regret it, I sure don’t. You can totally trust Ben and his team, I’ll never have it any other way. I’m Bill Dudley, Foxboro, Mass., and I give you my word.
