"Two years ago, I considered installing solar when our house needed a new roof. I was not sure about it because no one I knew personally had done it. I talked to multiple installers including Mike from Oak Electric. His knowledge, professionalism, openness, and no-pressure approach convinced me to go with them. Installation was a breeze and they took care of absolutely everything. I went with the all-cash option. Now two years later, I could not be more pleased with our decision to go solar and the choice of installer. It has been working flawlessly and the productivity has been within the estimate they promised, although slightly lower than the nominal. It has been as reliable as it can be and has not had a single hiccup. Mikes after-sales service in answering my questions even after two years has been impressive. I highly recommend SunPower and Oak Electric."

"Called roughly 15 minutes before they opened on Saturday morning.  Someone answered.  They were open till 12.00 and agreed to come out to our home by noon and determine why our AC ceased to function.  Fee to inspect/assess was $89.95, a competitive fee.  We had a $20 coupon from their website.  They identified the problem and eliminated it.  Total price was reasonable.  Got the job done quickly and professionally.  Will use a again if need be."

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

The best way to save money on solar panels is to take advantage of federal and state solar incentives. For example, the solar investment tax credit (ITC) offered by the federal government can save 30% of your total—if you can take the entire credit, which is based on income taxes owed—or an average of around $9,000. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) for state and local incentives that could save you even more.

Solar batteries can be a great investment to help maximize your solar savings and make your system and home more valuable, but they’re most beneficial to customers who don’t have access to net metering. If your state or energy provider doesn’t provide net metering, batteries can be a great way to offset consumption even when your panels aren’t producing power. They also come with the added benefit of providing electricity through blackouts, so they’re valuable in areas prone to severe weather that could cause frequent blackouts. Your installer can help you decide if batteries are worthwhile.

Solar panels should get at least four to six hours of direct sunlight daily. It’s even better if sunlight reaches panels between the peak hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. This is enough to power a home, depending on your solar system’s size and energy needs. Remember that panels will generate some power under cloudy skies or in the shade, and many systems compensate for lower sun exposure by drawing energy from the grid or battery storage.

For most U.S. homeowners, switching to solar energy is an excellent investment. A properly sized solar array can significantly reduce your electric bill, saving money on utilities every month. Most homeowners enjoy savings that cover the cost of their solar systems within 12 years and then turn a profit. Additionally, federal and state tax incentives are available that help make solar an even better and more profitable investment.

Yes, you have to get on the roof to cut a hole for solar tubing. It's not possible to complete the job from inside your house by simply cutting through the ceiling. So if you want to go the DIY route, remember to use safe ladder practices. If you’re not comfortable climbing on your roof to install solar tubes, hire a pro who has the tools and expertise to do the job safely.
