Solar Installation
Amidst the rising energy costs, one source of electricity remains free: the sun. With a solar installation, you can harness that free energy and avoid those rising energy costs. As a NABCEP-certified solar installer, we are passionate about helping people do just that.
If you are contemplating a solar installation for your home or farm, we have a sample proposal that you can download on this page. This sample proposal is based on an average size solar installation, and it contains information like cost breakdown, project specifications, payback period, financial analyses, and so much more. We hope that it will be a helpful source for you in your solar journey.
Our Solar Installation Services
Grid-Tied
Not ready to go completely off the grid yet? No worries! We understand that it can be a huge change from what you’re used to. With a grid-tied system, you’re still connected with your local utility provider, so you have reliable power even if solar energy alone isn’t enough.
Hybrid
Want a system that has the best of both worlds? A hybrid system can ease you into an off-grid lifestyle by combining the benefits of both a grid-tied and non-grid-tied system. Plus, it features a home battery backup; if there happens to be a grid outage, you’ll still have power.
Off-Grid
Ready to stop relying on your power company? An off-grid system is completely independent, powering your home with high-performance photovoltaic (PV) solar panels, a bank of batteries, and off-grid-compatible appliances.
Commercial
Looking to reduce your energy costs? Adding solar panels can help lower electricity bills and prevent power expenses from eating into your profits. Plus, there are plenty of incentives available for property owners to make the switch.

What Could You Save with a Solar Installation?
Does a solar installation actually save you money in the long run? There are plenty of conflicting opinions out there, but as solar system installers, we can truthfully say that it does! After the payoff period, you can calculate your Return On Investment (ROI) by looking at your electricity usage. If, for example, you normally use 1,200 kWh of electricity at $0.13 per kWh, your savings are $156. That’s the money you would spend on electricity per month without solar. This $156 is the extra money that you are now pocketing and will continue to pocket, and even more, as electricity rates rise over the years. We have seen many of our past customers experience big energy savings, and some have even gained energy independence. You can see some of their stories for yourself in our blog.
