FAQs
What solar installation services do you offer in Delano?
We provide turnkey solar solutions for homes, farms, and commercial facilities in Delano—including site evaluation, system design, electrical upgrades, permitting, utility interconnection, installation, final inspection, and monitoring setup. Our licensed electricians handle everything from rooftop PV arrays to ground-mount systems and battery storage integration.
How long does a residential solar installation typically take from start to finish?
For most Delano residences, the timeline is 6–10 weeks. The breakdown is: 1–2 weeks for site assessment and design, 1–3 weeks for permitting and utility approval, 1–3 days for actual installation, and 1–2 weeks for final inspection and net-metering activation. Larger or more complex projects (e.g., main-panel upgrades or ground-mounts) can add extra time, but we keep you informed at every step.
What incentives or rebates are available in Delano, and do you help with the paperwork?
Customers can claim the 30 % federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC). PG&E’s Net Energy Metering (NEM 3.0) program credits excess solar generation at the avoided-cost rate. Eligible homeowners may also tap into the Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) for battery storage rebates and the Disadvantaged Communities—Single-family Solar Homes (DAC-SFH) rebate if they qualify by location and income. Our team prepares all rebate applications, interconnection forms, and HOA or city paperwork at no extra charge.
How do you ensure safety and precision in your electrical work during solar installations?
All work is performed by C-10 licensed electricians trained in NFPA 70 (National Electrical Code) and OSHA fall-protection standards. We use calibrated torque tools, thermal imaging to verify connections, and UL-listed components. Every system undergoes a three-point quality check: internal inspection, city/county inspection, and utility grid-tie review. Our precision approach minimizes fire risk, maximizes system lifespan, and protects your property value.
What kind of maintenance do solar panels require, and do you offer ongoing service plans?
Solar panels are largely maintenance-free, but Delano’s agricultural dust can reduce output. We recommend a visual inspection and light cleaning once or twice a year. Our optional service plan includes annual performance reports, panel washing, inverter firmware updates, and 24/7 monitoring alerts. If a component underperforms, we handle warranty claims and repairs at no additional labor cost.
Can my roof support a solar panel system, and how do you determine the optimal system size?
During the site visit we inspect roof age, material, tilt, and structural integrity. If needed, we consult a structural engineer to verify load capacity and identify any reinforcements. We size your system based on 12 months of PG&E usage data, future electrification goals (EVs, heat pumps), and Delano’s average 5.6 sun hours per day. Advanced software creates a 3D shade analysis to ensure optimal panel placement for maximum annual production.
