Evaluation & Estimate

We begin by evaluating your energy needs and reviewing your current energy usage to determine the size of the solar system that suits your home. Within 2-3 business days of your initial consultation, your solar consultant will provide a quote tailored to your home and property. The quote will include the installation cost, ROI, and any federal or state incentives available to you.

Signed Contract & Permits

A project manager will be assigned to meet with you to discuss the details, gather any final information needed for system design, and manage the permitting and approval process to get your installation ready. This can take anywhere from 2-4 months between the initial signed contract and the start date of the installation construction. Your installer will handle all the necessary permits and paperwork, including building permits and utility approvals.

Construction Begins

The installation process typically takes 1-3 days, depending on the system size. This phase includes mounting the panels, installing the inverter, and connecting the system to your home’s electrical grid.

System Activation (PTO)

The installation process typically takes 1-3 days, depending on the system size. This phase includes mounting the panels, installing the inverter, and connecting the system to your home’s electrical grid.

Enjoy the Benefits

With your solar system up and running, you’ll start to see reduced energy bills. Depending on your system size and energy usage, you might even generate excess power, which can be credited back to you. Plus, you’ll be doing your part for a more sustainable future.

Incentives

Financing Incentives

Net Metering

Incentives are programs that homeowners can apply for to receive financial support for installing solar systems on their homes. While these incentives don’t cover the entire cost of switching to solar, they can significantly reduce the upfront investment.

Depending on the state multiple incentives are available that can drastically lower the cost of solar, making the switch more cost-effective compared to staying with your regular utility company.

With solar energy, your rates known in advance, so taking advantage of these incentives is a wise decision for both short-term savings and long-term investments for the average homeowner.
