What we evaluate

Six things that decide whether home solar is a good fit

Electric usage

Twelve months of kilowatt-hours, including how your usage swings between summer cooling and winter. This sets the size of the system.

Roof characteristics

Orientation, pitch, material, structural condition and remaining service life, plus real shade measurement rather than a satellite estimate.

Utility rates

Which utility serves your address and which rate schedule you are on. Time-of-use pricing changes both system size and whether storage is worth adding.

Financing

Cash, loan, $0-down structures for qualified customers, or a PPA. The structure often moves total cost more than the equipment choice does.

Battery needs

Outage history, evening usage, well or medical equipment. If backup matters, we map essential circuits before sizing anything.

Future electricity needs

An EV, a heat pump, a pool or an addition in the next few years should be designed for now, not retrofitted later at higher cost.

Straight talk

When we tell homeowners not to buy solar

Very low annual usage, heavy permanent shading, or a roof near the end of its life with no replacement budgeted are all reasons to wait. So is a plan to sell within a couple of years, depending on the structure you would be signing.

Nobody can guarantee savings. Production varies with weather, shading and equipment, and utility rates change over time. What we can give you is a transparent model with its assumptions visible, so you can judge it yourself.

Solar production, bill offset and payment comparisons vary by home, usage, roof, shading, utility rate schedule and financing terms. Nothing on this site is a guarantee of savings.
