Step 1.

Decide if solar
is right for you

While going solar has endless benefits (like fixing the cost of your monthly power bill, generating clean energy & so much more) it’s a big decision and there’s a lot to consider, including:

  • Homeownership status.
  • The age & quality of your roof.
  • The amount of sunlight your home gets
  • And more.
Step 2.

 On-site personalized home assessment

If you decide to go solar, we’ll walk you through the paperwork and make sure all of your questions are answered. From there, we’ll set up a home assessment where one of our solar specialists will:

  • Measure your roof.
  • Test the service panel.
  • Assess the quality & strength of your roof & attic.
  • Create the preliminary design for your solar system.
Step 3.

Custom design that fits your power needs & home aesthetic

After submitting the information from your home assessment, our in-house engineering team will finalize the design of your system and provide you with a detailed document that includes:

  • The number of panels.
  • The layout & design of the panels.
  • System details (including energy production).
  • Estimated savings & monthly bill, green benefits & more.
Step 4.

Submit local permits & schedule your installation

Once you’ve signed off on the design, we’ll submit the necessary paperwork to your local jurisdiction and wait for confirmation. Once permits are approved, installation typically happens within one day.

  • All paperwork is done for you.
  • Get weekly updates as progress happens.
  • Always feel in the loop – no chasing people down.
Step 5.

Local inspections
& approvals

After your solar system has been installed by our team, we’ll schedule the inspection from your town/city. Once approved, we’ll request permission from the power company to connect you to the grid.

  • Get proactive updates with weekly check-ins.
  • Approvals & paperwork are fully managed for you.
  • No waiting around – we’ll be there during the inspection.
Step 6.

Turn on your new solar-powered home

From here on out, your future is bright. With your new earth-friendly home, you can soak up all of the benefits of going solar, including:

  • Paying the same amount every month.
  • Getting free energy once your system is paid off.
  • Powering your home with clean, sustainable energy.
  • And more!

“Very easy process”

“Awesome experience from the beginning, my sales rep always answered his phone and made sure I was taken care of. Was a very easy process for me since I was not very educated on this stuff. Ion has had multiple people contact me just to make sure everything was on track and been giving me updates as we moved along with the process. Very happy with the system and customer service”

“Hands down an excellent experience”

“The process was very quick and efficient. The process from making the commitment to install only took three weeks. I had neighbors who used different companies and it took months not weeks to have them installed. Crew was very professional and made sure we had any questions answered before they left the site. Hands down an excellent experience and I will definitely recommend them to anyone who is still looking for solar.”
