What drives the cost of off grid solar in River Rouge

  • Daily energy use, especially in winter
  • Battery bank size and chemistry
  • Days of autonomy you want without sun
  • Generator integration and fuel type

Before you hire in River Rouge

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in River Rouge was built around 1940. Painting, window, siding and remodeling work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978 must follow the EPA lead-safe (RRP) rule. Ask any contractor for their RRP certification before work starts.

Older plumbing and sewer lines

73% of homes here were built before 1960, when cast iron drains, clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply pipe were standard. A sewer camera inspection before buying or remodeling is cheap insurance.

Permits: check with the River Rouge building department before work starts.
