FAQs
What makes your tailor-made solar solutions in Clairfield different from standard packages?
Instead of selling one-size-fits-all kits, we start with an on-site energy audit and roof assessment, evaluate your current electrical load, future expansion plans (EVs, pool pumps, machinery, etc.), and the specific shading patterns unique to Clairfield. We then engineer a system that optimizes panel layout, inverter configuration, and battery storage to match your goals—whether that’s maximum bill reduction, backup power, or carbon neutrality. Every design is stamped by a licensed electrical engineer and complies with local utility interconnection rules and Tennessee building codes.
How do you determine the right system size for my property?
We analyze 12–24 months of your utility bills to establish baseline consumption, measure roof orientation and pitch with drone imaging, and run production simulations using NREL’s PVWatts data calibrated for Clairfield’s solar irradiance. We also interview you about lifestyle changes that could raise or lower usage. The result is a projected kWh target, which we translate into the number of panels, inverter capacity, and (if desired) battery size that delivers at least 90–110 % of your annual demand without over-sizing and wasting money.
Will solar panels still work efficiently with Clairfield’s weather conditions?
Yes. Clairfield receives roughly 4.3–4.7 peak sun hours per day on average, which is favorable for solar generation. Modern monocrystalline modules we install have temperature coefficients below –0.35 %/°C, meaning they perform well even in summer heat. For cloudy or winter days, net metering (or our optional lithium-ion battery packages) lets you use credits or stored energy. We design tilt angles and row spacing to minimize snow accumulation and use anti-reflective glass to maximize low-light performance.
How long does the installation process take and will it disrupt my daily routine?
After the initial consultation and design approval, permitting in Clairfield and Powell Valley Electric Cooperative interconnection typically takes 2–3 weeks. Physical installation of a residential 7–12 kW array is usually completed in 1–2 days; larger commercial projects may take 3–7 days. Power shut-offs are limited to a 1–2 hour window while we tie in the new service panel or critical-load sub-panel. We coordinate with you to schedule this outage at the least inconvenient time, and your property is left clean each evening.
What financing or incentive options are available for Clairfield residents and businesses?
Homeowners can claim the 30 % Federal Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC). Businesses may also qualify for accelerated MACRS depreciation and the 10 % Domestic Content or Energy Community bonus credits if applicable. We partner with TVA’s Green Connect program for performance-based rebates, and local customers can choose $0-down solar loans with terms from 5 to 20 years at competitive interest rates. Our finance team will provide a personalized cash-flow sheet showing monthly payments versus projected utility savings.
What kind of maintenance and after-sales support do you offer?
Your system comes with a 25-year panel performance warranty, 12-year inverter warranty (extendable to 25), and a 10-year workmanship guarantee backed by our licensed electricians. We provide free monitoring setup on your smartphone and perform a complimentary check-up at year one. Optional maintenance plans include annual inspections, panel cleaning, and firmware updates for $199 per year. Our local Clairfield crew is on call 24/7 for warranty repairs, and most service tickets are resolved within 48 hours.
