FAQs
What solar solutions do you provide for Blountville homes and businesses?
We design and install grid-tied, hybrid, and off-grid photovoltaic (PV) systems that use the latest high-efficiency panels, module-level power electronics (micro-inverters or DC optimizers), and optional lithium-ion battery storage. Every project is custom-engineered to match the site’s roof pitch, shading profile, and energy goals, ensuring maximum output and long-term reliability for both residential and commercial properties in Blountville.
How does the solar installation process work from start to finish?
1) Free Site Assessment – Our NABCEP-certified technicians inspect your roof or ground area, review past utility bills, and run a shade analysis. 2) Custom Proposal – You receive a detailed design, energy-production forecast, financial savings estimate, and equipment list. 3) Permitting & Incentives – We handle all local permits, TVA/BTES interconnection paperwork, and incentive applications. 4) Installation – A licensed electrical crew mounts racking, panels, inverters, and (if chosen) battery storage, typically in 1–3 days. 5) Inspection & Utility Approval – Local code officials and the utility inspect and grant PTO (permission to operate). 6) System Activation & Monitoring – We connect the array to your home’s service panel and set up real-time app-based monitoring so you can track performance from day one.
What incentives or rebates are available for solar in Blountville, and how do I qualify?
Blountville residents can take advantage of the 30 % Federal Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC) through 2032. Many customers also qualify for: • TVA’s Green Connect program, which offers a one-time incentive and streamlined interconnection for systems up to 20 kW. • Sales-tax exemptions on solar equipment in Tennessee. • Accelerated MACRS depreciation for businesses. Our finance team prepares all required documentation and coordinates with your tax advisor to ensure you receive every dollar you’re entitled to.
How much maintenance do solar panels require, and what warranties do you provide?
Solar PV systems are mostly maintenance-free. Occasional rainfall usually keeps panels clean; if heavy pollen or debris accumulates, a gentle rinse with a hose is sufficient. We include a complimentary annual performance check in the first year. • Panels: 25- to 30-year power-output warranty (at least 80-90 % of original output in year 25). • Micro-inverters/Optimizers: 20- to 25-year manufacturer warranty. • Workmanship: 10-year labor warranty from our company. • Batteries (optional): 10- to 15-year warranty or 6,000+ cycles. Remote monitoring alerts us instantly if a component underperforms, allowing fast, warranty-covered replacements.
Will my solar system still produce energy during cloudy days or winter months in Blountville?
Yes. Modern monocrystalline panels and module-level electronics harvest diffuse sunlight, so you’ll still generate electricity on cloudy days—typically 10–30 % of rated capacity. In winter, cooler temperatures actually improve panel efficiency, partly offsetting shorter daylight hours. We model seasonal variations using 20-year NREL climate data, so your proposal already factors in realistic winter and overcast production to give you an accurate annual energy estimate.
How long will it take to break even, and how much can I expect to save on electricity bills?
For most Blountville homeowners, the payback period is 8–12 years, and commercial systems often break even in 5–9 years thanks to depreciation benefits. After payback, you’ll enjoy 15–20+ years of essentially free power. Customers typically reduce utility bills by 60–90 %, depending on system size and usage patterns. Our proposal includes a cash-flow graph, net present value (NPV) calculation, and carbon-offset metrics so you can clearly see the financial and environmental returns.
