With the cost of natural gas and electricity going through the roof, it is now time to start thinking about your energy budget as a whole.

You can't make your own gasoline and you can't make your own natural gas, but now you CAN make your own electricity. And the best part about it is that the fuel to make own electricity falls from the sky everyday for free. 

Thousands of utility customers throughout the U.S., who were tired of the high cost of electricity have taken advantage of the huge rebates and tax credits which are available for the installation of solar energy systems on their homes and businesses.

For example, Southern California Edison is currently offering a cash rebate of up to $1,550.00 per AC kilowatt. And the Federal Government is offering a 30% tax credit with absolutely no cap residential and commercial applications. And unlike like the old solar energy systems of yesteryear that only produced hot water, these new systems actually produce electricity ! Clean reliable electricity to run lights, TVs, pumps, refrigerators, computers and many other appliances, all with free energy from the Sun.

Depending on the size system you choose and the number of loads you have running during the day, it is actually possible watch the power company's meter run backwards.

Since 1997 the staff here at Solar Home has developed an unmatched level of expertise in the design and implementation of systems that qualify for many State rebate programs. We offer free assistance in the design of your system, we can help you in locating a qualified, experienced contractor in your area and can even assist you with the submission of your rebate application to your State.

With more than 15,000 customers worldwide, we possess the knowledge, the experience and the strategic partnerships to make your transition into solar an experience that's not only enjoyable but also rewarding.

 

Only The Finest Available Products

When it comes to high efficiency and field proven U.S. made reliability nothing tops the performance of a PV Powered inverter. In 2004 PV Powered Inc. of  Bend, Oregon shook the industry's foundation by announcing the world's first CEC rated 96% efficient grid intertie inverter and if that wasn't enough soon after announcing this incredible accomplishment, they absolutely floored the competition with the industry's first 10 year standard warranty. Needless to say this literally forced inverter manufacturers around the world back to the drawing board.

 Since that time PV Powered has lead the way with a record of reliability that very few inverter manufacturers have come close to touching. PV Powered's rock solid design makes their inverters almost bullet proof which is why PV Powered inverters are one of the most widely used products in the country.

Ask any alternative energy engineer, installer or dealer and they'll all tell you the same thing. With more than three gigawatts (3 billion watts) worth of Sunny Boy inverters sold and operating worldwide "The Sunny Boy inverter's proven technology makes this unit one of the best grid intertie inverters available on today's market." Like a fine German crafted sports car, Sunny Boy Inverters are engineered and built in Germany, the hotbed of the worlds finest renewable energy technology. We've taken Sunny Boy's unbeatable German craftsmanship and reliability a step further by adding one of the world's highest performance solar panels available.

When it comes to purchasing a solar system for your home or business it is crucial that you take a very close look at the solar panels that the dealer is offering you. After all, solar panels are the workhorse of any solar system. Far too many consumers simply purchase what ever it is that a dealer happens to have available without even looking at a specification sheet. Performance that is lacking by just a few percentage points or an inferior warranty can make all the difference in the world over the expected life of a solar panel.

With more than nine years of experience operating our own state of the art, in-house solar repair center, we know what technologies perform well in the real world and what technologies do not.

 Over the years, we've seen expensive, name brand, solar panels fail only after a few months worth of use. We've even seen popular U.S. made solar panels fail soon after the manufacturer closed its doors leaving its customers with no warranty.

This is why it is important that you choose a solar panel manufacturer that is well established in the industry and has the financial strength to be there in the event that a warranty claim arises. This is exactly why we chose publicly traded BP Solar for our Everlux™ series solar systems.

Products engineered to deliver highest lifetime value

BP Solar modules are designed and constructed for long-lasting real-world performance Their superior quality comes from their long history, precision engineering, accelerated testing programs and quality construction. Their cell manufacturing and technology center in Frederick, Maryland, has over 35 years experience and pioneered many of the advanced solar cell processes and designs available in the market today.

BP Solar modules are some of the most durable on the market. Cell interconnection is the backbone to a PV module. BP Solar uses the highest quality materials in carefully designed interconnection systems that minimize the impact of thermal stress, harsh environments and cracked cells to ensure long-term performance. BP Solar’s advanced reliability testing, as well as third-party testing by industry experts, shows that our modules will perform year after year with virtually no degradation.

Their framing systems are among the strongest in the industry. Their frames are made of corrosion-resistant alloys and are certified to International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standards to withstand loads up to 50 pounds per square foot in a variety of mounting methods, including end mounting. When using traditional mounting at the bolt holes, BP Solar modules meet the IEC extended snow load requirement of 113 pounds per square foot.

Their modules are designed to optimize energy production. We use AR coated impact-resistant glass, which has been proven to deliver up to 4% more energy than standard glass. Their module design pushes the laminate forward against the frame to prevent dirt accumulation and allows more space between the frame and cells to ensure that any dirt accumulation that does occur does not obscure the cells.

BP Solar’s patented IntegraBus technology ensures greater reliability and more efficient operation. Bypass diodes are required to protect the module when partial shading or other obstructions occur. BP Solar uses high-quality, cooler running diodes and incorporates them into a printed circuit board—not the junction box. This allows for optimum heat dissipation and a smaller junction box that does not interfere with cell operation. IntegraBus allows their modules to operate at a lower temperature, ensuring more energy production and longer life of the module.

Thin might be in when it comes to waistlines and the latest HDTV sets but when it comes to securing the bulk of your investment to the roof of your home you want the strongest mounting system made out of the thickest aircraft grade aluminum that money can buy. The engineers at UniRac understand this premise and we do too so we've added the finest mounting rack systems available today. The UniRac SolarMount system is unsurpassed in quality and durability, rated to withstand up to 110 miles per hour wind speeds, UniRac ClickSys Mounts are engineered to last a lifetime.

"The single most important criteria when choosing a solar panel is not price nor is it performance. It's the financial strength of the manufacturer behind the solar panel's guarantee."

Thousands of U.S. consumers will make the same mistake this Summer that so many have made in the past of trying to save a few pennies per Watt by buying non name brand solar panels without ever looking into the manufacturer's history or even its current financial status.
