A solar-powered home can save you money, increase the value of your home, give you control over your electricity consumption, and make you independent of traditional energy sources. With the federal tax credit of 30% and various other state incentives, switching to solar has never made more sense.
A solar-powered home can help you offset up to 12 tons of your yearly carbon emissions relative to your energy source. This can jump to 100% in year 3, when your solar panels become completely carbon-neutral.
Net metering can increase your savings by allowing you to sell back excess energy, and you can make a profit through net metering rates, which vary per utility.
Yes. Under NEM 3.0, homeowners who install solar batteries will enjoy better net meterting rates by releasing stored energy into the grid at night.
Your warranty will cover any damage sustained by the solar panels during the installation. The solar panel manufacturer or the installation company will be liable for such costs.
Yes. However, tt is highly unlikely that your roof will be damaged during the installation process. On the off chance that something happens, your warranty will cover the expense.
You can either pay off the remaining balance or transfer the payments to the new owner if you move. The new owner will need to apply and get approved in order to make the transfer. Please contact me and I will work with all parties to ensure that your move is a smooth experience.
On the contrary. Boost your home's value; solar panels increase overall home value by 4%. Solar homes spend 13.3% less time on the market and are 24.7% more likely to get an offer above the asking price.
Solar panels have an average lifespan of 20 years. With the proper care and maintenance, they can last as long as 35-40 years.
Solar panels typically require cleaning every six months or at least once annually. They might need to be cleaned more frequently if you live in a high-pollution area. Simply hosing them off has satisfied many of my customers. DO your research of companies that professionally clean solar panels.
The warranty agreement will have specific requirements related to the maintenance of solar panels. They are highly durable and do not cost a lot to maintain properly.
The ITC is a federal tax credit for the installation of new solar systems in residential properties. The owner can get a 30% reduction in federal income tax if they are eligible between 2022-2032.
In case you do not owe any federal tax, the credit can be rolled over to subsequent years. This can also be done if you owe less than 30% of your solar system’s value.
All homeowners who owe taxes to the federal government and earn a wage are eligible for the credit. You need to purchase a new solar energy system to qualify.
