Think you might have found a lower price ?

Better take a closer look because we can pretty much guaranty that the system you found will include low cost, non name brand solar panels that are manufactured by a tiny overseas company that has a good chance of not being around in 3 or 4 years to honor their 25 year warranty. Or even factory defective "B" grade solar panels that use lower efficiency String Ribbon™ technology. Or solar panels with less than a 25 year warranty. Or lower efficiency Canadian UMG solar panels. Or low cost mounting racks that are made from much thinner aluminum or no mounting racks at all. Or an inverter that uses light weight, lower cost high frequency technology.

At Aliso Viejo Solar Power, We Offer Only The Finest Name Brand Equipment On The Market.

We are ardent in our belief that the more industry documented facts that we can provide you with that are free of all the sales gimmicks, half truths and confusing double talk that is beginning to become rampant in our industry, the more rewarding and enduring your investment into solar will be.

  • A much larger rebate.

  • Top of the line name brand Trina solar panels.

  • High efficiency Polycrystalline technology.

    Your Solar Investment Is Only As Secure As The Mounting System That You Choose.


     
    That's Why We Chose HatiCon Mounting Solutions For Our High Performance Solar Systems.



    Strong Box Beam Mounting Rails

    Box beams have a long proven history in the construction industry. The box beam's efficient load bearing design lends itself perfectly for securing your investment into solar onto your roof's surface.


    Low Cost, Light Weight C Shaped Rails Without A Factory Warranty Are Not Permitted In Any Of Our Systems.

    The C shaped rail that many other dealers offer provides a flimsier design and don't even come with a factory warranty. To prove our point ask your dealer to provide a sample of their C shaped mounting rail. Lay the sample on its side and simply stand on it.

    Note what happens to this rail. Next try the same thing with a box beam rail from HatiCon and you'll know right away which design offers you more piece of mind.

    Because many C shaped rails use far less aluminum, the result is a flimsier design which will require many more holes drilled into your roof to provide the rigidity that is necessary to support the solar panels. Drilling more holes into your roof can increase labor costs as well as increase the risk of a leak.

    Also HatiCon's tall rail provides more air flow for increased cooling. Solar electric panels work off of light not heat. Heat is a solar panel's worst enemy, the cooler a solar panels is, the more power it will produce.

     Always ask your dealer to show you a sample of the mounting rails the he's going to use on your roof. ******

    Important: If you've been provided with a quote with no mention of the brand or model number of the mounting system that your dealer is using, then we can almost guaranty that the dealer is probably trying to sell you one of the many low cost, thin aluminum racks that are available on the market. This is a common practice amongst less reputable  dealers. Always demand to see a full list of material including brands and models and ALWAYS ask for a copy of the mounting system's factory warranty.



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 $1,100.00 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 Aliso Viejo Solar Power 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.


Solar Panel Comparison

California and other states have adopted a much more stringent system to rate real world performance of solar panels. This rating system assigns what is known as a PTC (PVUSA Test Conditions) rating to each solar panel that is approved for use in their rebate programs.

This rating system was developed to test and compare PV systems as part of the PVUSA (Photovoltaics for Utility Scale Applications) project.

The PTC rating, which is lower than the STC (Standard Test Conditions) rating, is generally recognized as a more realistic measure of PV output because the test conditions better reflect "real-world" solar and climatic conditions, compared to the STC rating.

According to the California Energy Commission, Click Here To Compare For
Yourself our TSM-230DA05 230 Watt panel has a higher per Watt PTC rating than all of the following solar panels. Which means that in California and other states, watt for watt you'll get a bigger rebate with Trina Solar than with any of the solar panels listed below.

The BP® 190 through 210 Watt panels.

The Solar Tech Power® 190 through 210 Watt panels.

The REC ScanModule® AB 205 through 230 Watt panels.

The Robert Bosch® 225 through 240 watt panels.

The Ningbo Max® 150 through 175 Watt panels.

The GE® 200 and 205 watt panels.

The LDK Solar 170 through 270 watt panels.

The Quantum Technologies 215 through 230 watt panels

The AblyTek 175 through 240 watt panels

The Tianwei Ecosolargy 155 through 235 watt panels

The Jiangsu Aide Solar Energy Technology 175 through 240 watt panels

The Yunnan Tianda Photovoltaic® 160 through 180 Watt panels.

The Fluitecnik 210 through 280 Watt panels.

The Shandong Linuo Photovoltaic Hi-Tech 175 through 240 Watt panels.

The Cosmos Energy 195 through 230 watt panels

The Jiangsu Best Solar High-Tech 170 through 270 watt panels

The Anji Technology 175 through 240 watt panels

 And according to the following manufacturer's own specification sheets, the Trina TSM-235PA5 panel offers a better negative tolerance rating than the Sun Power® line of solar panels and the Sharp® line of solar panels. A better negative tolerance rating means that you are guaranteed in writing of getting more of the power that you paid for.

The Trina TSM-235PA5 also offers a warranty that is 5 years longer than Kyocera® and Sanyo®.


"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 warranty."

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 dollars by buying non name brand solar panels from small financially unsound manufacturers that probably won't be around in 3 or 4 years. When their solar panels fail due to poor workmanship and or materials, the only thing that these consumers will be left with is a bunch of glass and aluminum on their roofs that they will have to pay to have removed.

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. We've taken the U.S. born and bred performance and reliability of the PVP4800 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 Trina Solar for our Gold series solar systems.
