Our Process
Free Energy Evaluation & System Proposal
The first step in our process involves reviewing your energy use and discussing your personal finance goals. We evaluate your facility or home and the solar exposure to determine the optimum size and type of solar system to fit your needs. Based on this information, we provide an estimate and review financing options that fit your goals.
Once you decide to move forward with a solar PV system installation, we prepare a comprehensive proposal based on the information gathered during the energy evaluation. The proposal includes the system type, size and location, maintenance and warranty information, and a detailed financial evaluation containing various financing options and information on all available solar incentives and tax credits and rebates. We help you choose the financial option that best suits your needs and prepare the requisite permit requests with the utility company.
Design & Installation
This is where we turn your ideas into a photovoltaic system tailored to your specifications. Our engineers design the best system for your home or business based on power usage and your input throughout the process. We make sure to design the exact system you need and want.
Next, our specialists install the system in a timely manner. Most residential installations are completed within a week, although some installations may take longer depending on the size of the PV system.
Commissioning/Flip the Switch
As much as we love designing and installing the perfect photovoltaic solar system for your home, we think of this as the most exciting step. It is the last barrier between you and clean, sustainable solar energy.
A county or city building official and a representative from the utility company will inspect your system. After it passes inspection, the system is ready for commissioning, the quality-control process that ensures it’s working properly. At this point, we walk you through your new photovoltaic installation and answer any final questions. Now you don’t have to worry; your system is producing energy (and, of course, now you start saving money on electricity).
On the backend, Solar Gain will monitor your solar system to ensure everything is running smoothly. This ensures peak performance, and if an issue arises, we will contact you and take action to remedy the problem. We use multiple different solar power monitoring systems and will teach you to monitor the system yourself, based on the equipment installed at your home or business.
Testimonials
“The Solar Gain team delivered as promised, and the system is functioning as good or better than estimates. Workmanship for the installation of the system was neat and tidy. I couldn’t be happier with the team! Great job, guys.”
– David Gibbens
“Roman and his crew did a great job installing solar on my State Farm Agency back in 2011. We figure at this point we’ve saved about $30,000 over the past six years. The install was very professional, the equipment works flawlessly, and we have had no issues whatsoever. I highly recommend Roman Black and his Solar Gain company should you choose to install solar.”
– Dan Kalm
“I would hire Solar Gain again and recommend them to friends in the future! Their install was seamless and professionally done. Completed as promised and functioning PERFECTLY!”
