HOW TO BUY A SOLAR
  ELECTRIC SYSTEM

1. Solar Site Analysis
A solar electric system begins with one phone call. We do a quick over the phone initial survey about your site and electrical usage. We then ask for your electric bills (we only need the bit about your annual electrical kW usage.) and the plans of your home or building. We then met with you for an onsite visit, answering any additional questions, suggesting energy saving improvements and looking at your system's probable installation site. We also create a proposal, including any rebates and tax incentives you are eligible for.

2. Approval of System Proposed
The proposal will contain the size of your system, the location of the panels on your roof or other solar installation site, a breakdown of our charges, the rebates that are applicable to your system, and the environmental impact your system will have.

3. Signing of Contract
We then give you the time to look over your proposal, and decide whether you are going to sign with us. Although we always urge you to decide quickly as rebates fluctuant in California, and we cannot guarantee them for long.

4. Paperwork + Permits
We deal with the paperwork required for you to receive your rebate, which we usually carry for our customers. We also acquire any permits needed for the installation and take care of the inspections.

5. Installation
After which we schedule an installation. The installation itself varies according to the size of your system, however the average residential installation (around 10 kW) takes around 2 to 3 weeks and the average commercial installation 1 to 2 months. Although our crews will require access to your structure, we do not need to access the interior for the installation.

6. Demo of System
We will provide a quick follow up visit, when will answer any prevailing questions, and explain the basics of your particular installation. As soon as we begin generation you can observe your electric meter run backwards.
