In the solar industry, we pay a lot of attention to shade. Sometimes people want to add solar to their home but we have to give “The Shade Talk” because their roof is too heavily shaded by trees, terrain or other buildings and solar just isn’t viable …

Well, tonight, starting at 10:02 PM until 4:03 AM Pacific Standard Time, almost the entire moon, (97% of it) will be in the shade of the earth for the longest partial eclipse of the moon in 548 years! People in the Seattle area will be able to see the changes in the moon’s appearance if our skies are clear. This is a November full moon, also known as a “Beaver” moon by Native Americans.

When you’re ready to see if solar is right for you, please give us a call at 206-706-1931 or fill out our contact form below and tell us a little about your project. We promise not to throw shade on your project but we will let you know if there’s too much shade with our detailed solar shade analysis.
