FAQs
How long does a typical residential install take?
Most rooftop systems are installed in one to two days, after a permit cycle that runs 2–4 weeks depending on jurisdiction.
Do solar panels work in cloudy or cold weather?
Yes. Modern PERC panels still produce 10–25% of rated output under cloud cover, and actually run more efficiently in cooler temperatures.
What warranty comes with each panel?
Every panel ships with a 12-year product warranty and a 25-year linear performance warranty guaranteeing at least 84.8% output at year 25.
Can I add a battery later?
All of our inverters are storage-ready, so you can start grid-tied today and add a battery in a separate phase without re-pulling permits on the array.
Is there financing available?
We offer 0% APR for 18 months, plus longer-term solar loans through partner lenders. Most homeowners qualify in minutes.
