Make Installing Your New Residential Solar System Easy
At Sun Solar, we want to make choosing solar an easy decision. That is why we offer a variety of solar lease benefits, including $0 down options, locked-in rates for up to 25 years, and an Energy Assurance™ performance guarantee, or your money back. You will also enjoy a unique early buy-out opportunity if you decide to buy your system before the end of your lease term. Otherwise, you will have flexible options at the end of your Lease, including renewing, purchasing, requesting a free removal, upgrading to the newest technology available, and more.
Ready to invest in solar for your home? Our proven installation process involves the following steps:
First, we will evaluate whether your property is suitable for solar power. South-facing roofs are ideal, but results can still be achieved with less ideally situated roofs as well. Our engineers will determine how much sunlight your roof would be likely to capture with a solar system and help you determine whether your roof will qualify for rebates and tax credits.
Next, we will help you determine how powerful a system would be needed to power your property and go over how the project will be financed, including zero-down options and other financing/purchasing options for qualified customers.
After you sign your contract, your unique system design will be given to our engineers. Then, we will begin taking care of all of the permitting and rebate paperwork associated with your project. Once the rebate is approved and all permits are received, we can order the materials for your project and prepare for installation. Installation typically takes around three days to complete.
After completion of the installation, we will schedule a final inspection of your property with your local governing body. We will also submit the final paperwork to your electric company.
The average residential solar installation in California takes approximately 12 weeks to complete from the initial contract to installation completion. We take steps to minimize disruption and inconvenience and aim to make this process as smooth and swift as possible.

Independently Power Your Home, Day and Night
When the grid goes down or power outages strike, a home battery storage system can keep your lights on and your fridge cold without any upkeep, fuel, or noise. When you pair it with our solar systems, it can recharge with sunlight to keep your appliances – and more – running for days. Get solar + battery storage as low as $99 each month with finance options available through Sun Solar.
