Services
Solar Electric Systems
We design and install photovoltaic systems that convert sunlight into electricity. Our solutions reduce energy bills by 100% down to budget-friendly levels while qualifying for 30% federal tax credits. Systems feature high-tech materials and inverters that transform DC to AC power for seamless grid integration.
Pool Solar Systems
Our solar pool heating systems utilize existing pool pumps to circulate water through roof-mounted plastic panels. This cost-free solution extends swimming seasons by 5-7 months using solar energy. We specialize in integrating electronic controls for optimal temperature management in new and existing pools.
Solar Hot Water
We install passive and active solar water heating systems that reduce water heating costs by 50-75%. Our solutions include federally tax-credited systems with metal enclosures and copper piping. Passive systems use natural water pressure while active systems feature holding tanks and circulation pumps for enhanced efficiency.
Solar Service Appointments
Our technicians provide scheduled maintenance and system diagnostics to optimize solar performance. Services include panel cleaning, system tune-ups, and component inspections. Regular maintenance helps maintain 25%+ energy output improvements and extends equipment lifespan across all solar installations.
Panel Cleaning
We offer professional solar panel cleaning services to remove performance-reducing debris like dust, pollen, and bird droppings. Regular cleaning maintains optimal energy production, especially in dusty environments. Our technicians use specialized equipment to safely clean panels without damaging roof-mounted systems.
