Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the cost of installing solar panels?

  The cost of solar panels depends on the quantity you require. Since each home or business has different energy usage patterns and building structures, the solar needs will vary from one property to another. When we provide a quote, we take into account your energy consumption, roof layout, potential shading issues, and the pricing from your local utility company. Then, we design a customized system that can fully offset your energy use or help reduce costs during peak pricing periods.

  For residential customers, we offer various financing options, including $0 down leasing with affordable monthly payments, as well as other financing plans with extended terms and no upfront payments. Our consultations are completely free, with no pressure to commit. For a personalized quote and more information, please call us at 480-689-5000.

• How long does it take to recoup the cost of solar panels?

  The time it takes to recoup your investment in solar panels can vary based on the system’s cost, your energy consumption, and the available incentives. Typically, homeowners in Mesa see a return on their solar investment within 7 to 12 years. Factors such as the efficiency of the solar panels, utility rates, and any applicable tax credits can impact this timeline. Our team at Sun Valley Solar Solutions can provide you with a personalized estimate that takes into account your specific home and location. Feel free to reach out for a free, no-pressure consultation to learn more about your expected payback period.

• Are solar panels a good investment in Mesa?

  Absolutely! In Arizona, the abundant sunlight and local incentives make solar panels a great way to reduce energy costs. Additionally, federal tax credits can lower the cost of a solar system by up to 30%. By harnessing Mesa's plentiful sunshine for renewable energy, you can efficiently power your home while also benefiting the environment.

• What is the lifespan of solar panels?

  Solar panels are designed to last for many years, with most warranties covering around 25 years. However, even after the warranty period, most solar panels continue to generate electricity for 30 years or more. While the efficiency of the panels might decline slightly over time, they will continue to perform effectively for decades.

• What incentives are available for solar panel installations in Mesa?

  If you decide to install solar panels in Mesa, you could potentially take advantage of the federal solar tax credit, which can cover 30% of the total system cost. In addition to this, Arizona offers a state tax credit that could further reduce the cost by $1,000. Moreover, residents of Arizona are exempt from paying sales tax on solar system purchases.

  For those interested in solar batteries, there is also an opportunity to qualify for a 30% tax credit on energy storage systems with a capacity of 3 kWh or more.

• What steps are involved in the solar installation process?

  The process of installing solar panels starts with a free consultation. During this meeting, one of our solar professionals will assess your energy needs, review your electricity bills, and check if your roof is suitable for solar panels. We'll answer any questions you have and explain how solar energy can benefit your home.

  Next, we'll create a preliminary design based on your energy goals and provide you with a no-obligation estimate, including a projection of your return on investment. If you decide to proceed, we'll conduct an on-site inspection of your roof to finalize the system design.

  We'll also help you explore financing options and provide details on available solar incentives, which can reduce the cost of your system by up to 30%. Once your financing is in place, we'll schedule the installation, which may take a few weeks or months, depending on the season.

  After the installation, your utility provider will make the final grid connection, which could take a few days or weeks depending on their workload. Although the process may seem complicated, our team will guide you every step of the way to ensure a smooth transition to solar power.
