FLOATING SOLAR
Floating Solar System in
Los Angeles, CA
ARD Remodeling reviews floating solar system possibilities for specialized sites in Los Angeles and Surrounding Areas where water surface may be considered instead of land.
This is a specialized project type. Each pond, reservoir or water body has to be assessed individually before any design direction is recommended.
The review looks at floating platforms, anchoring, cabling to shore, access for maintenance and site approvals.
WHAT WE DO
FloatingSolar Site Review
Water surface review
We review whether the water body may be suitable for floating solar at a high level.
Platform planning
We consider floating platform layout, spacing and access needs.
Anchoring review
We review anchoring and stability needs based on the site conditions.
Shore connection
We plan how power could route from the floating array to shore equipment.
Floating solar starts with careful site questions, not assumptions.

Is floating solar common for homes?
No, it is a specialized project type. It usually makes sense only for certain properties with suitable ponds, reservoirs or water surfaces.
Can any pond be used?
No. Suitability depends on size, depth, access, water conditions, ownership and approval requirements.
How does the power get to shore?
Cabling routes from the floating platforms to shore equipment must be planned carefully. The final route depends on the site.
What about maintenance?
Maintenance access is an important part of the plan. The system needs a practical way to reach equipment safely.
Do approvals matter?
Yes. Site and water-body approvals can be a major part of floating solar planning, and requirements vary by property.
