• Solar Panel is best when placed on the southern-
facing portion, or the highest point, of a structure.
• The panel should not be placed where shade or
shadow is cast upon it by trees, buildings, telephone
poles, or other obstructions.
Once installed, the Solar Panel
should be angled towards the southern sky, so that the face of the panel is exposed to
as much sunlight as possible during the day. (Generally, an upward angle of 45º should be sucient for exposure.)

Helpful Tip:
At high noon, adjust the
Solar Panel so that it faces
the sun. During any time of
year, this adjustment will provide
optimal positioning for collecting
solar energy.
You can also angle the panel up by 45º,
which should provide for adequate exposure.
Where to Place the Solar Panel
for Optimal Exposure to the Sun
Tree blocks sunlight from Solar Panel.
