Modern Solar Energy Company With Amish Roots
Long before Belmont Solar grew into the modern Solar Energy Company that it is today, it was a dream in the mind of a young Amish boy from rural Lancaster County, PA named Ben Zook. Ben was born and raised here in Lancaster County, PA and was always fascinated with battery powered electricity.
After getting his GED, Ben began working for an electrical contractor. His time working as an electrician further ignited his love for electricity. He eventually went to Thaddeus Stevens College and became a certified NABCEP Certified Photo Voltaic installer by passing the North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners exam.
Over the past 20 years Ben Zook has lead Belmont Solar’s efforts to bring more and more people “Power, out of thin air” by designing and installing the highest quality solar panel installations. Ben has brought the Lancaster County famous Amish craftsmanship and hard work to his solar energy company and the happy customers and consistent growth speak for themselves.

The Advantages of Choosing Our Solar Energy Company
At Belmont Solar, we are proud of our Lancaster County Amish heritage. Our founder, Ben Zook, grew up in an Amish community in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. As a result, he learned the value of a hard work ethic and quality workmanship that the Amish are known for. In addition to that, Ben also grew up without being connected to the utility grid. This insight into the off-grid experience has given him and our team an exceptional understanding in alternative energy and battery backup solutions.
Speaking of battery backup, Belmont Solar offers the advantage of battery backup specialization. Our team is trained and ready to assist you with any solar battery backup questions or projects that you may have. Whether you are interested in a hybrid or off-grid system, we can install your battery backup power solution and help you gain security for unexpected times.
A third benefit of allowing Belmont Solar to handle your solar panel installation is our acquisition of Tough Trac in 2017. Our industry leading Tough Trac mounting solution contains a very innovative, one-of-a-kind approach to wire management. Each Tough Trac mounting rail is designed with a special built-in wire management channel. This protects your solar array wiring from harsh weather, squirrels, or whatever else Mother Nature can throw at it. This wire protection can give you peace of mind knowing your system will outlast other similar products in the industry.
Our Solar Panel Installation Process
Step 1:
Schedule a Free Solar Consultation
To begin, simply give us a call or submit our contact form. When you contact us, be prepared to give us your address, a scan of a past utility bill, and a tentative budget. Once we have this information, we’ll provide you with a free solar consultation and estimate the size and cost of your future project.
Step 2:
Review Proposal and Sign Contract
A day after your free consultation, you will receive a link to an online proposal for your potential solar panel installation. This proposal will detail the project, including a breakdown of the costs, estimated payback of the system, and a tentative schedule for installation. An electronic signature and downpayment are all we need to get the residential solar panel installation started.
Step 3:
Installation Day
Upon signing the contract, our solar energy company will begin working with local officials to guarantee that all applications and permits are complete. Once all the permits are filed, we will come onsite and begin installing your system.
