Common questions

How much can solar save me?

Homeowners in our service area save an average of more than $1,200 per year. Your exact figure depends on usage, roof orientation and your utility's rate schedule.

Do I have to remove panels for a new roof?

Yes — our Reset & Rollback service removes, safely stores and reinstalls the full array so roofing work can happen without voiding equipment warranties.

How often should panels be serviced?

We recommend an annual maintenance visit: cleaning, torque checks, inverter firmware and a production audit with a written report.
