Ditch unpredictable electric bills. Join the thousands who've switched and are saving.
Dear homeowner,
We understand.
Going solar can seem overwhelming. Really overwhelming.
You’re probably wondering if it’s worth it, if it’s the right time, or if it’s just another hassle.
Feeling like you’re navigating a maze of misinformation and complicated contracts.
And to top it all off.
You’re being bombarded with options and opinions from every direction.
Oh my goodness!
Should I lease? Sign a PPA? Buy outright?
What about solar brokers?
Everyone’s got an opinion on brokers.
Should I trust the ads?
Spend hours researching every single detail?
Find the cheapest deal?
*someone please help me make sense of this*
Look, most homeowners have a bad case of ‘solar confusion syndrome’…
Mixed with a scoop of uncertainty… and a sprinkle of “I just want to do the right thing”.
And they end up doing a little bit of this… a little bit of that.
Soon, they’re frustrated with all the things they “should have” done.
We call this mess the solar spiral.
Also known as frustration.
It’s stressful and tiring.
And we’d rather juggle flaming torches than let you go through that.
But this isn’t about us… It’s about you.
You’re reading this right now because, in some way shape or form, your energy bills aren’t where you want them to be.
Or maybe you’re just looking for a smarter way to power your home… and you simply want more.
More savings.
More control.
More peace of mind.
More energy independence.
More value for your home.
More sunny days without worrying about rising electricity costs.
Whatever it is for you…
It all starts by choosing the right path below…
*cue the sun shining brighter*
Our customer oriented process starts with your energy needs.
Have your online account to your utility provider ready. We have technology that measures your usage for the past 12 months so we can size your system accordingly.
We design a system to meet your energy needs and generate the best savings.
Once you've finalized your quote with your solar consultant, we will walk you through our contract and make sure you understand all terms.
We draw up the engineering plans for your system and get these plans stamped and permitted by the city.
Most installations take 1-2 days. Our highly experienced installers are efficient, safe, and mindful of your home.
We set you up with our system monitoring app and you are backed by our 25 year warranty. If anything comes up we got you covered. No sub-contractors or 3rd-parties to deal with.
"Courteous, informative, smooth, and timely" would be the phrase I would use to describe my experience with Option One Solar of purchasing and installing the solar panels and Tesla power pack at my house. P.S. Just saw the first SCE bill, post installation. The wife had a big smile!
Hands down the best out there- Option One Solar from the start to the finish was there to educate us, answer all my questions, and most important keep us updated thru the entire process. Ashton was our first person we met with and he was just great, really taught me about how solar worked, how we could benefit from it and was no pressure on our our decision.
They are really easy to work with, they did a great job on the installation. They had a large crew and were able to complete the installation in one day, which made it very convenient.. Brianna the service advisor was very great to work with, and always kept me informed of what was going on.
It's best to include savings into the conversation about cost. A typical homeowner in Southern California will pay over $200,000 to the utility over 25 years.
The average solar + battery system for our customers costs around $25,000. These customers will be saving $175,000 or more over the life of their system.
The cost of not going solar is much greater.
The system size you need depends on your historical and future energy needs, and we pride ourselves on knowing how to get you the best return on your solar investment
Since NEM 3 passed in California back in April 2023, battery backup is key in ensuring you have the best savings and energy independence.
You'll produce energy for the daytime and store energy for the night-time and outages, offering great savings and peace of mind.
For residential customers, leasing and PPA's just don't make sense compared to a purchase.
Under these programs you don't own the equipment, you don't get the tax incentives, and the cost goes up annually.
It can also be a nightmare if you decide to move.
Give us a call to show you how much more you would save through a cash or loan purchase.
Solar brokers are middlemen between customers and installers, and they are very damaging to the solar industry. Often times these are the guys knocking on your door with no company identification.
They shop you around a network of installers for the best price and tack on a hefty commission fee.
By going directly to an installer you are cutting out the middleman and you know who is going to be there if you need support in the future.
Avoid brokers like the plague if you are keen on saving money.
Proper Licensing: In California, ensure your installer holds both a C-10 (electrical contractor) and C-46 (solar contractor) license. This confirms their expertise in electrical work, which is crucial for safe and compliant solar installations.
Experience and Reputation: Look for installers with a proven track record. Ask for references, read online reviews, and check with the Better Business Bureau. A company with positive feedback and a history of successful projects is a good sign.
Comprehensive Services: A reliable installer should offer a full range of services, from initial consultation and system design to permitting, installation, and ongoing maintenance.
Customer Service: Choose a company that's responsive, communicative, and willing to answer your questions thoroughly. Good customer service ensures a smooth and positive experience throughout the process.
