While equipment comes with workmanship and production warranties, they don't cover theft or damage from external sources. Most homeowner insurance policies do cover solar systems. Check with your provider for more details.

Solar panels contain individual cells made of two layers of silicon. An electronic imbalance between the layers causes electrons to move when struck by sunlight, generating electricity. This direct current (DC) is converted to alternating current (AC) by an inverter, allowing it to power your home.

Solar panels can significantly lower your electric bill and begin paying for themselves immediately. Even if you move before your investment is fully paid off, studies show the remaining value is likely to be recouped upon sale. Additionally, a solar system can make your property more appealing by offering a guaranteed lower electric bill. Warranties are transferable to a new owner one time.

From day one, solar power offsets your electricity purchases, reducing your electric bills. With minimal ongoing costs, you lock in the solar portion of your electricity expenses, protecting against inflation and simplifying budgeting. You'll recoup the cost of your solar system well before the end of its lifespan. Most components are warranted for up to 25 years and last 40+ years, providing decades of financial and environmental benefits. Additionally, demonstrating a commitment to a healthier planet can enhance your reputation within the community.
