A Brighter Future for All
  • Solar Battery Storage

    • How much can I save with a solar battery storage system?
      The amount you can save depends on your energy usage, peak demand charges, and the size of your battery storage system. Many homeowners save $125–$150 monthly by using stored solar energy instead of exporting it.
    • How does battery storage work with solar panels?
      When paired with solar panels, battery storage allows you to store excess solar energy generated during the day for use when the sun isn't shining or during times of high energy demand. This reduces your reliance on the grid and increases your energy independence.
    • How long does a battery system last?
      The lifespan of  battery storage systems typically ranges from 10 to 15 years, depending on the type of battery and how it's used. Regular maintenance can help extend the life of your system.
    • Can battery storage help during a power outage?
      Yes, battery storage systems can provide backup power during an outage, ensuring that critical business operations continue without interruption. This is especially important for businesses that cannot afford downtime, such as healthcare facilities and data centers.
    • What type of batteries are used in solar storage systems?
      We install trusted systems from Enphase and FranklinWH, chosen for their performance, reliability, and smart integration.
    • How do I know if I'm a good candidate for battery storage?
      If you want more control over your energy, better backup during outages, or are frustrated with rising rates and low solar payback, you’re likely a strong candidate. We’ll evaluate your home and usage to confirm.
  • Detach LP

    • How long does the detach and reset process take?
      Most removals and reinstalls are completed within one to two days. We coordinate with your roofing contractor to avoid delays.
    • Do I need to be present during the removal service?
      No. As long as we have access to your electric panel and attic (if applicable), our team can handle the work and keep you informed.
    • Can you reinstall panels after another company removes them?
      Yes, but it’s best to have the same team handle both removal and reinstallation to avoid damage and ensure everything is reconnected properly.
    • Is your work covered by warranty?
      Yes. All detach and reset services include a workmanship warranty. Ask us for details during your estimate.
