Have a solar-related question? We have the answer! Check out our FAQs below to learn more about our company and services.

  • How much does a solar system cost?

    A typical residential solar installation in St. Louis, MO costs between $10,000 to $30,000 before factoring in any incentives. With current financing options, you can pay less than $100/month and receive a tax credit worth thousands. According to Solstice, the price of solar has fallen over 70% since 2010.

  • How many solar panels do I need to power my home or business?

    Your system size will be based on your usage for the last year. If you provide us with a copy of your most recent electric bill, we will be able to size your system to meet your needs. It is common for solar contractors in St. Louis, MO to add more panels at a later date if your energy needs change (i.e. purchase of an electric vehicle).

  • What kind of incentives are available for switching to solar?

    There is currently a 26% federal tax credit. Other incentives vary based on your location. As one of the most trusted solar installation companies in St. Louis, MO, give us a call to see how we can help you.

  • How long do solar panels last?

    As experienced solar contractors in St. Louis, MO, 25 years tends to be the minimum standard. Though solar panels' production gradually reduces over time, a solar panel should continue to produce energy well beyond its 25-year production warranty.

  • Where is the ideal placement of solar panels?

    For your home solar installation in St. Louis, MO, ideally, you want the panels to face the south and not near any tree covering for maximum exposure. However, they can be angled and placed on a different area of the property. Your solar professional will provide any additional guidance needed.

  • Will my solar system continue to produce when the power goes out in my home?

    If you don't have battery backup, your system cannot produce power when the electricity is out. Contact our solar contractors in St. Louis, MO for information about the battery backup.


  • What happens if my solar system is damaged?

    Once installed, your solar installation in St. Louis, MO will be covered by your homeowner's insurance. However, solar panels are very durable and are rarely damaged.

  • Can my system be off-grid?

    Being tied to the grid is not a requirement, though most choose to be. Off-grid systems require battery storage to be able to have access to electricity without the sun available. Our solar contractors in St. Louis, MO can set up battery storage if it is desired.

  • Should I replace my roof before adding solar to my home?

    Nope! Consult with one of our solar contractors in St Louis, MO to learn how you can possibly optimize current incentives to save you money on both roof and solar together.


  • Should I update my electric system before adding solar to my home?

    Not necessarily. Consult with one of our solar contractors in St Louis, MO to learn how you can maximize current incentives to help you save money on the whole solar project.
