What to expect, step by step
We’re your personal solar consultants. At every step of the way, our goal is to provide you with the information that you need to make an informed decision.
What happens during my free site assessment?
Step 1: Getting to know you
First, we’ll have a brief phone call to establish your energy needs and goals. In addition to collecting basic information about your home or business, we’ll ask about your annual electricity usage, any anticipated usage increases or decreases, and any generator equipment. We may ask for photos of your electrical service panel.
During this call, we’ll also schedule your free onsite solar site evaluation and a virtual presentation of your custom solar proposal.
Step 2: Your free solar site assessment
For a rooftop solar array, we’ll conduct an onsite assessment of your roof to determine its pitch and orientation, and perform a thorough shade reading and roof measurement. We’ll assess your outside electrical service and look at the potential panel layout and location of wire runs.
If a ground mount is desired or determined to be the best option, we’ll suggest array locations and share information about fixed versus tracking solar arrays.
Step 3: Your solar proposal presentation
Our team will present you with a customized preliminary solar proposal. Typically, proposals include a few system options of varying cost and size. Our team will provide a customized solar proposal covering different system sizes, solar panel options, pricing, financing, net metering, tax credits, and optional battery storage.
Step 4: Solar proposal revisions
Based on your feedback and information gathered during our site evaluation, we will prepare a revised, fixed-cost proposal. We’ll continue to work together on your proposal until it meets your budget and energy goals.
Step 5: Contract and installation
Here’s where we make it official. When you choose us to install your solar electric system, we’ll prepare an installation contract. We manage all aspects of system installation, including permitting, utility paperwork, and registering your system.
Our qualified and experienced installation team will get the job done efficiently and professionally, ensuring a safe and code-compliant installation. After installation, we’ll activate your system and set up your monitoring software. We offer Maine’s longest warranty of 30 years and are here to answer any questions you might have during installation and beyond.
