re: Solar Panels - Yay or Nay

If the panels could be installed in the yard, then not a bad idea.
The idea of the added weight being on your room plus having to penetrate the roof doesn’t seem wise. I wouldn’t even allow my DTV dish installed on the roof of my new house. Had the installer use a stand/pole/post instead.
And how does it cost to replace/repair those panels? What about the materials in the panels?

They have to do load support calcs as part of the permitting process. If your roof can't handle it, it's not getting permitted for installation or interconnection.

They almost never fail and have insanely good warranties so factor in your replacement cost at basically zero.
