Sandi - we had solar panels installed a few years ago. Our system was turned on a whole 6 weeks when we got that MONSTER hail (the grapefruits) and it cracked one panel. Most panels are rated for up to 3" hail, and it's rare to get any larger than that. Now I just need to get a rainwater system (I'd like something fairly large and would probably need a pump) which would help with the pool DH has in the yard.
