FAQs
What solar services do you offer in Jonesborough?
We provide turnkey solar solutions that include site assessment, system design, permitting, installation, interconnection with the utility, and post-installation monitoring. We also install hybrid battery storage, EV chargers, and smart energy management systems so you can maximize the value of your solar investment.
How much can I save on my electric bill by going solar?
Most customers in the Jonesborough area offset 70–100 % of their annual electricity costs. Savings depend on your roof size, current utility rate, and daytime versus nighttime usage patterns. We model your expected production using National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) data, so you’ll see a personalized payback estimate—typically 7-12 years—with 25+ years of free, renewable power after that.
Are there incentives or tax credits available for solar in Tennessee?
Yes. Homeowners can claim the 30 % federal investment tax credit (ITC) on the total cost of a qualified solar installation. Businesses may also qualify for accelerated depreciation (MACRS) and potential USDA REAP grants. At the state level, Tennessee exempts solar equipment from additional property tax assessments, and Washington County offers net-metering with credits that roll over month to month.
Will solar panels affect my roof or home insurance?
We mount panels using flashing and hardware that preserves your roof’s weatherproofing and maintains manufacturer warranties. Roofing inspections are included. Adding solar typically increases home value without raising property taxes. Most insurance providers simply add your system as a covered ‘roof improvement,’ often for a minor premium adjustment—check with your carrier for exact terms.
How long does installation take and will it disrupt my daily routine?
From signed contract to energized system usually spans 6-10 weeks. Permitting and utility approval take the longest. Actual on-site installation is 1-3 days for a standard 8-12 kW residential array. We coordinate around your schedule, keep job sites tidy, and no major interior work is required—most homeowners remain comfortably at home throughout the process.
What maintenance does a solar system require?
Solar PV systems have no moving parts and need very little upkeep. Occasional rain generally keeps panels clean, but if dust or pollen accumulate, a gentle rinse with a garden hose or a professional cleaning once a year can restore peak output. We include a 25-year power-output warranty, 10-year workmanship warranty, and complimentary online monitoring so you can track performance and receive alerts if service is ever needed.
