Rooftop solar is usually the homeowner's decision, and it is simplest on a house with a roof of its own. In Coral Springs, 60.3% of occupied homes are lived in by their owner and 48.9% of all homes are detached single-family houses. Condos, townhomes and apartments usually need approval from the building or association first.

Half of Coral Springs's homes were built before 1987. Panels last decades, so if your roof is near the end of its life, ask installers whether to replace it before they install.
