FAQs
Why is solar a smart choice for homes and businesses in Englewood?
Englewood averages roughly 245–250 sunny days each year, giving solar panels ample opportunity to generate clean electricity. By converting that sunshine into power, you can reduce or eliminate your electric bill, hedge against future utility-rate increases, and boost your property’s value. Colorado also offers strong net-metering rules, so any excess power you send back to the grid earns you bill credits, further improving your return on investment.
How much electricity will my solar array actually produce in Englewood?
Production depends on roof orientation, shading, panel wattage, and system size, but as a rule of thumb a properly sited 6-kW residential array in Englewood will generate about 9,000–10,000 kWh per year. Our design team uses advanced irradiance modeling (PVWatts and Aurora) to give you a custom generation estimate before you sign a contract, and we guarantee those numbers in writing.
What incentives, rebates, or tax credits can I receive for going solar here?
• Federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC) – Currently 30 % of the total system cost, available through 2032. • Colorado Sales & Use-Tax Exemption – Solar equipment is exempt from state sales tax, saving ~2.9 %. • Local Utility Rebates – Xcel Energy and other Front Range utilities periodically offer $250–$750 per kW of installed capacity; availability varies. • Property-Tax Exemption – The added value of your solar array is exempt from property-tax assessments. Our team files all paperwork to make sure you capture every available dollar.
What is the installation process and how long will it take?
1. Site Assessment (1–2 days) – We measure your roof, check structural integrity, and map any shading. 2. System Design & Permitting (2–4 weeks) – Engineers finalize plans and submit them to Englewood’s building department and your utility for approval. 3. Installation (1–3 days for most homes, 1–2 weeks for larger commercial projects) – Our licensed electricians mount racking, panels, and inverters, then complete all wiring. 4. Inspection & Utility Interconnection (1–2 weeks) – The city inspector and utility representative sign off, and your bi-directional meter is swapped in. 5. Activation – Once you get Permission to Operate (PTO), you can flip the switch and start generating clean power.
Will my panels work during snowstorms or cloudy Colorado winters?
Yes. Solar panels continue to create electricity from diffused light, though output is lower on overcast days. Snow typically melts quickly because panels are dark and mounted at an angle; any loss from snow cover is already factored into your production estimate. Additionally, Englewood’s high elevation and cold temperatures actually improve panel efficiency compared to hotter climates.
What maintenance, monitoring, and warranties are included?
Our systems are virtually maintenance-free: there are no moving parts, and rainfall usually keeps panels clean. Each installation comes with • 25-year manufacturer warranty on panels for performance and workmanship, • 10–25-year inverter warranty (depending on model), • 25-year roof-penetration warranty from Energy Solutions Electrical, • Real-time online monitoring so you can track production from your phone. If an issue arises, we handle all warranty claims and service calls at no additional labor cost for the first 10 years.
