Can confirm. I happen to live in one of the affected neighborhoods. From my experience in TX, roofs do really well with up to ping pong sized hail. Anything bigger and you have a problem.
It’s absolutely mind blowing to me how many people have their garage packed with “stuff and junk” and park outside. And then they end up strapping mattresses on their cars with duct tape.
I really want solar panels but it just doesn’t seem to make sense here. This is the 2nd time we’re having roof replaced in 10 years. A few houses have panels on their roofs and about 30% panels seem to have damage visible from the street.
This is going to sound hacky, but would a screen of 1" chicken wire mounted several inches above the panel (the stuff stretches) make for some cheap insurance? The wire is thin enough that it shouldn't interfere significantly with the amount of light the panel gets.
