The process is divided into 7 steps:

Step 1: Savings Report

The Solar Savings Report gives you everything you need to know about your solar savings potential. You’ll see how solar works, get a custom panel layout, an estimated yearly production as well as a new estimated bill. You’ll also get a peek at incentives, 25 years savings, and a whole lot more.

Step 2: Approval Process

We want to make sure you get the right solar experience. After you decide to go solar we’ll help you decide what loan product and payment works for you and your budget. You’ll then fill out a quick application and most approvals come back as soon as we send them out. No need to wait.

Step 3: Signatures

No one likes reading through and signing thousands of documents for what feels like hours. We’ll quickly walk you through some required installation and loan documentation that will need your signature. Most can be signed electronically and we make this step as painless and seamless as possible.

Step 4: Site Survey

With documents signed it’s time to get your new system dialed in. Site surveys can often be done by your representative who will take some photos around your home. They’ll capture things like electrical panels, breakers, your roof, and attic.

Some cities require an additional site survey, but don’t worry, we’ve got that covered. Your representative will let you know if you need one and get it all set up on a schedule that works for you.

Step 5: Final Design and Permit

After the site survey a final engineered design, known as a CAD, will be created for your roof. The CAD is designed in accordance with all regulations required by the state and local utility company to make sure we don’t run into any issues or roadblocks.

Once the CAD is approved your permitting applications are finished and we’ll submit the final plans.

Step 6: Installation

Once those permits are received we’re ready to install your new solar system. We’ll work with you to find an installation date that fits your schedule. And here is the best part; most systems are finished in one day!

Step 7: Activation

Once your new solar system is installed we’ll submit for Permission to Operate, or PTO, with your utility company. The approval of PTO’s varies by utility company, but we work hard to make sure it’s approved as quickly as possible.

Once approval comes through you are free to flip the switch and start producing your own power.

We won’t ask you to swing a hammer, but we do ask that someone over the age of 18 be present for the installation. Your installers will also appreciate it if dogs and other pets are kept clear from their work area so they can focus on providing you the best service possible without distraction.

Solar energy is a completely renewable, reliable and clean energy source, reducing the use of dirty sources that produces harmful emissions affecting our health and environment such as oil, coal and natural gas.

Your solar panels will produce energy for you to run everything in your home. Some months your panels will produce more energy than you need. That’s great news, because that energy is sent back to the power grid and you get a credit for the excess. If your panels produce less energy than you need, don’t sweat it. The surplus energy you created is now credit used to reduce or even eliminate what you owe for pulling from the power grid.

The federal government is offering you a 26% income tax credit if you purchase a solar system. It’s pretty simple; if you buy a system for $19,230 you will get a $5,000 tax credit. When taxes come around $5,000 will be eliminated from what you owe. If you don’t owe that much on your taxes we have more good news: that credit can carry over to the next year. This tax credit is set to expire, so it’s time to stop procrastinating.
