Solar Installation

We offer a manufacturers' warranty that is specific to each component. For example, there is a 10-year warranty currently on the power inverters as well as a 25-30 year warranty for solar panels. We will be happy to review all current available warranties and guarantees during our site assessment.

Currently, there are rebates from both the federal and state government. Sometimes we also see that local energy companies offer incentives. Typically, financial incentives are given in the form of tax credit rebates which we advise you to discuss with a certified public accountant.

Yes, but the size of your solar power production unit (ie. panels) will need a larger surface to accept more energy. While this can be done, your return on your investment will take longer to breakeven.

Absolutely! We do not install on rental properties for renters, however, property owners can install solar power for any property type.

The average to breakeven is 8-12 years dependent on use case.

While it is easy to understand that this is a loaded question as a 800 square foot home will cost less than 3,600 square foot home more often than not, we think that most of our clients are actually trying to get a general price range. The average price per kW in Wisconsin is currently $2.70. So, a 10kW system is estimated to cost $27,000 installed before current 30% federal tax credits or rebates.

80% of our solar installs fall between $22,00 to $35,000 per project.

We begin your solar journey with a solar site assessment which includes a detailed solar analysis report blending existing data with the potential of your location. This usually takes a couple of hours for the assessment and a couple of days for the solar analysis report to be built.

Based on the solar analysis, we will discuss pricing based on your specific needs and come to an agreement on the total project scope. A 50% retainer is needed to begin your work which starts with the ordering of materials.

While we have a 25-point checklist of our post-solar sales process

Here are the highlights:

• After your materials arrive to our office, we then schedule an installation day. Accessing your home is almost always needed, so we schedule your installation on a mutually beneficial day where you can allow us to enter your home or business.
• Installation usually takes 10 days based on the size of your system.
• After electrical and construction work is completed, final payment is made.
• State and county inspections as well as commissioning are scheduled.

Cash, check, Venmo, PayPal, and credit cards are all accepted payment methods.

We provide referral lists according to your service area and authorized information release from previous clients.

Our normal area of service is 50 miles of Eau Claire, WI, however, we do travel outside this area for solar and roof rejuvenation with added travel fees.
