There are many reasons to switch to solar energy. We have listed our customers favorites below.
1. No more crazy high electric bills. By going solar, you can stop the crazy increases the utility companies are forcing on their customers each and every single year. Yup, inflation is a real thing. When you go solar, you will be redirecting your monthly energy costs that you are currently RENTING into a fixed and predictable rate that will allow you to OWN your power. This allows homeowners who qualify for solar to predict their energy costs, manage their budgets, have an endgame, and no longer be subject to the unknown of the utility company.
2. Increase your property value. Solar panels are raising the value of homes. Studies from Zillow, Berkeley Labs, and many more have recently reported that homes with solar panels installed are selling for 4.1% higher on average than those without. This can easily add tens of thousands of dollars to your home’s worth. We’re not real estate agents but which house are you buying? The one with an electric bill or without?
3. Tax Incentives. To help encourage people to move off the grid to some sort of renewable energy source, the government has started giving huge federal and state tax incentives. Right now, you could be eligible for up to a 26% tax credit back from the federal government and select states have local incentives as well. Imagine getting paid, all while saving the environment and money at the same time. We have exact instructions to claim your federal tax credit as well as the form needed here.
4. Protect your roof. One of the largest questions we receive is if solar panels will damage your roof. It is actually quite the opposite. Solar panels actually help protect your roof from harsh weather, which can save you money on roof repairs and help lengthen the time between replacements.
5. Do Your Part. Did you know that more than 9 out of 10 people of the world’s population live in a place where pollution exceeds safe limits. Sleep better at night knowing that the energy you are using no longer affects the outcome of future generations. Lower your carbon footprint and gain peace of mind knowing that your were creating a better world for your children.
