Frequently asked

We have answers to your solar energy questions

How much can I actually save on my electric bill?+
Most of our California homeowners cut their electric bill by 40–60% in the first month. Depending on your current bill and utility provider, that can mean $80 to $300+ in monthly savings. The best way to find out your exact number is to get a free quote — it takes less than 60 seconds.
Do I have to pay anything upfront?+
No. With our PPA and financing options, you can go solar with zero money down. You simply pay a lower monthly rate for the solar energy your system produces — often less than what you're paying your utility today. No large upfront investment required.
How do I know if my home qualifies for solar?+
Most California homes with a south, east, or west-facing roof qualify. As long as you're a homeowner and your roof is in reasonable condition, you're likely a great candidate. Our team will review your home and let you know for free — no obligation.
How long does installation take?+
Once permits are approved, most installations are completed in just 1–2 days. From your first quote to your system being turned on, the typical timeline is 4–8 weeks. We handle everything — permits, installation, and utility coordination.
Will solar still work when it's cloudy or during winter?+
Yes. California gets exceptional sun year-round, even on overcast days. Solar panels still generate power from indirect sunlight. Most of our customers see consistent savings in every season, not just summer.
What happens to my electric bill after I go solar?+
Your utility bill drops significantly — often to just a small grid connection fee. Any extra energy your system produces gets sent back to the grid and credited to your account through California's net metering program. Many customers end up with near-zero utility bills.
