Pricing Questions Answered

How long does it take to pay off a solar system?
Most residential systems in BC pay themselves off in 7–12 years, depending on your current electricity consumption, system size, and available rebates. After payback, you enjoy free or near-free electricity for 15+ more years.
Are there financing options available?
Yes. We work with several financing partners to offer low-interest solar loans. The Canada Greener Homes program also provides interest-free loans up to $40,000. Ask us about current financing options when you request a quote.
What's included in the quoted price?
All our quotes include equipment (panels, inverters, mounting hardware), labour, permit fees, BC Hydro application, project management, and system activation. There are no hidden fees.
How accurate is my savings estimate?
We use your actual BC Hydro bills, precise roof measurements, and shading analysis tools to produce conservative savings projections. Most of our customers see savings equal to or exceeding our estimates in their first year.
What warranties come with my system?
Premium panels carry 25-year performance warranties from the manufacturer. Inverters typically carry 10–25 year warranties. We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on all our installations, covering any issues related to our work.
