Nothing should happen because of the professional in-house installation crews training and processes, but we will fix your roof if there is any damage caused by the installers. If there are any leaks that may occur, let us know, we got you covered for 25 years on all roof penetrations.
If financed or leased/PPA, the finance or leasing company will secure your solar project through a lien on the solar equipment itself by filing a UCC-1, or Uniform Commercial Code Financing Statement, and county fixture filing. The filings are not a lien against your home, so they do not hold any formal position in your home (first, second, or otherwise). You will, however, find a UCC-1 fixture filing on the title of your property. The finance or leasing company file UCC-1 and county fixture filings to protect their rights as the financier of the system. If for whatever reason your mortgage on the real property forecloses on your home, the UCC-1 filing protects their security interest in the system, while preventing your mortgage lender from taking ownership of it.
You'll contact the solar finance or leasing company to ask them to lift the UCC-1 and county fixture filing on the Solar Equipment for a limited period provided they will be able to refile upon closing of the mortgage refinancing.
Congratulations on the move! You have two options:
1) Pay off the remaining balance.
In the vast majority of cases homeowners choose to pay off any remaining balance through the sale of their home. This could help increase the value of the home easier.
2) Transfer the payments
New homeowner could assume the remaining payments, he/she must apply to qualify. If the new homeowner is approved, then he/she assumes full responsibility of the loan. In very rare circumstances, if he/she is not approved, new buyer may have the option to pay transfer fee.
Solar panels have a lifespan of approximately 30+ years. And typically, they come with warranties to match. Power output warranties guarantee that panel performance won't fall below a specified level over the term of the warranty (usually 25 years). For example, a manufacturer might provide a warranty to guarantee that peak power output won't fall below 85 percent for 25 years.
Typically solar panels are incredibly durable and require little to no maintenance due to not depend on engine or moving parts. If you own the system, a fee could be charged to service. If you signed up for a Third-Party Ownership Agreement, the Company would cover the service under the Agreement.
If you own or leased/PPA your solar panel system, the warranty will be included in the agreement. In the event that something does go wrong, call us and will support consulting your warranty. Solar system components have 25 year warranties that include replacement of parts and labor.
The ITC in 2024 is a 30% federal tax credit for solar systems on residential properties. As the owner of the solar energy system, you may be eligible to apply the credit as a dollar-for-dollar reduction in the federal income taxes that you owe in the year that your solar system was installed. If the ITC granted for your solar system is greater than your tax liabilities in the year that you purchased your solar energy system, you may be able to apply the remaining ITC up to 5 years. To determine your eligibility for any federal solar investment tax credit, you should make an independent assessment or consult with your tax advisor. Some states and/or utilities offer additional credits and rebates above the ITC Tax credit.
If you are a wage earner and owe taxes to the federal government, then you may benefit from this Tax Credit.
You may qualify to receive up to 30% of the value of the system. If you don't have that in tax liability, you can roll it over for up to 5 years of taxation to receive the full amount.
NO! SOLRITE warranties, maintains and insures the system for the duration of the agreement.
The VPA is a Third-Party Ownership Agreement to only pay for the energy the panels produce, without purchasing the Solar Equiptment.
YES! VPA includes back-up batteries on every home for no extra cost to help during power outages. Battery storage size will vary depending on home consumption.
Only if you smash them :) Every thing else is covered by SOLRITE.
