thank you for submitting your information

It helps, but it is not the whole picture. Utility companies have differing service agreements, electricity rates and processes for net metering. When we create your estimate and cost-benefit analysis, we do not expect you to know all the regulatory details, but we should. Your utility bill gives us additional information that you may not be aware of.

Technically, no they didn’t. You may have received a ballpark estimate but chances are it is wildly inaccurate and most likely lower than it should be to draw you in. It is highly unlikely you have an accurate assessment of what your savings and return on investment will be without an electricity bill review. The correct way for a professional solar company like ours to begin to custom design a system that will provide the most savings and potential earnings for you is to review your historic electricity consumption. This ensures the system will be sized appropriately to meet your projected future demand so your home does not have a system installed that will be bigger or smaller than what you really need.

You can either ask the previous owner for a copy of a recent bill. Or you can ask for the square footage of the home, how many people will be living in the home and if they have or plan to get an electric vehicle. If there is a pool, is the heater ran on electric or gas? Based on that information we can generally come up with an average annual KW usage.

You can take pictures of your bill and text (or email) them to us. :-)
