Best Direction

South-facing-facing

How Sunlink's Design Tool Works

Our AI-powered design tool uses multiple data sources to create the most accurate system design possible.

Satellite Imagery Analysis

We analyze high-resolution satellite imagery of your roof to measure dimensions, angles, and orientation with centimeter-level accuracy.

Consumption Pattern Matching

We use your monthly electricity usage to determine the right system size to offset your energy needs.

Production Estimation

Using local solar irradiance data, weather patterns, panel specifications, and your roof's specific angles, we calculate estimated annual production within 5% accuracy.

PANEL PLACEMENT

Where Panels Go on Your Roof

South-facing is ideal in the Northern Hemisphere

South-facing panels produce the most energy throughout the day

West-facing panels help cover afternoon peak demand

East-facing panels provide good morning production

North-facing panels are generally not recommended (significantly reduced output)

Shading from trees, chimneys, and neighboring structures reduces production

Sunlink's AI design tool analyzes your specific roof for optimal panel placement
