Energizing Homes, Empowering Futures: One Home at a Time
We Work with the Leading Residential Solar Teams to Help Bring the Latest Solar and Battery Technologies to Your Home!
Solar panels capture sunlight and convert it into direct current (DC) electricity, which is then sent to an inverter that transforms this DC power into alternating current (AC) electricity, usable for residential needs. This AC electricity powers your home, and any excess energy is measured and potentially fed back into the grid through a two-way meter, ensuring efficient use and energy savings.

Here is a list of our most frequently asked questions from our valued customers
People are moving all the time, but that shouldn’t impact your solar decision. A solar system can save you money today and even pay for itself in as little as five to six years. Even if you move before your solar investment is completely paid off, studies show the cost will likely be returned in increased value to your home. Plus, your home would most likely sell faster, because who wouldn’t want a home with a cool solar system and no electric bills?
The simple answer is no. With no moving parts and at least a 30-year expected lifespan, solar panels require very little maintenance. In fact, their design ensures that they remain relatively clean as long as they are exposed to some rain or a quick rinse every few months.
For the safety of workers attempting to fix power outages, solar systems that are connected to the electrical grid are required by utility regulations to shut off during blackouts. To maintain power in your home during a blackout, we offer battery backup systems that will power all of your critical loads during a blackout.
Most homes we install will produce more electricity than they use every year, bringing your net-electrical cost to $0, but the power company typically still charges a small connection fee to remain connected to their grid (typically about $100 per year).
The cost of adding solar to your home will vary based on how much electricity your home uses every year. California Solar Installers strives to design a system that will offset 100% of your total electrical needs each year.
