Before You Buy !
Click here
to learn ten buying tips to use when shopping for a solar system.
Solar
Home only uses solar panels that have been
manufactured with solar cells that have been
cut from solid ingots of silicon.
When
shopping for solar panels, always insist on
solar panels that use solar cells that have
been cut from a solid silicon ingot.
Many of the solar panels that are on the
market that use solar cells that are not cut
from solid silicon ingots may offer lower
efficiencies, poorer tolerances or lesser warranties.
No thin film, ribbons, bows or strings attached.
Simply Better Components
In an effort to be more competitive, many
dealers have resorted to offering thin light
duty mounting rails that require many more
roof penetrations, lower cost, lightweight inverters with high frequency transformers instead of a heavy duty 60 Hertz output transformer, solar panels with poorer per Watt PTC ratings and lesser warranties and or solar panels that use cells that are not cut from a solid ingot of silicon.
Here at Solar Home we never skimp on quality. Every system that we sell includes only the very best heavy duty components available on today's market.
And that's not just talk. In a side by side comparison we'll prove why our name brand top of the line equipment outperforms the competition hands down at a price that can't be beat.
Weight Matters
Solar
Home only uses heavy duty inverters with 60 Hertz based, copper wound output transformers for high
efficiency and unbeatable durability and performance.
Copper is
expensive but its time tested performance in inverters is undeniable.
Since the year 2000 We've
owned and operated one of the largest most experienced
factory authorized inverter repair centers
in the nation and we know the value of using a
heavy duty 60 Hertz based output transformer.
Because of our in
depth knowledge concerning the design,
construction and repair of inverters, we simply
will not use HF (high frequency) inverters in our
systems.
Before making a buying
decision, better ask how much
the other dealer's inverter weighs, then ask to
see the inverter's specification sheet to be
sure.
Many of our competitors use inverters with lower cost, HF (high frequency) output transformers.
High Efficiency,
Solar Cells.
You won't find any of the low cost, lower efficiency UMG solar cells that are starting to come from a particular Canadian solar company in these high performance solar panels.
The silicon that is used to make these Canadian solar panels which by the way are not really made in Canada, come from
blended UMG (upgraded metallurgical grade) silicon, which offers an efficiency rating that's considerably lower than the higher purity silicon that is used in Trina's higher efficiency
polycrystalline cells.
Trina's refining
process offers you higher efficiency and better
performance. And because
Trina Solar manufactures there own cells, they
are able to maintain tighter tolerances and a
higher level of quality control.
Strong I Beam Mounting Rails
I beams
have a long proven history in the construction
industry. The I beam's efficient load bearing
design lends itself perfectly
for securing your
investment into solar onto your roof's surface.
The U shaped rail
that many other dealers offer provides a
flimsier design. To prove our point ask your
dealer to provide a sample of their U 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 ClickSys I
beam rail from Unirac and you'll know right away
which design offers you more piece of mind.
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 the dealer is probably trying to
sell you the cheapest available racks 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.

Here's A
Shopping Tip
Just
because a company makes a great TV or
other household appliance doesn't
necessarily mean that they make a great
solar panel. Some of the poorest performing
solar panels are made by some of the biggest
names in the industry.
Never
rely solely on a salesperson to tell you what's a
great product and what's not. We'll provide you with all of the resources that you would ever need, including specification sheets from our competitors offerings, so that you can make your own educated decision about solar panel performance and compare for yourself. After all, solar panels have the potential to last 30 years or more, so even minor differences in performance can make a big difference in the long run.
We're Here To Help
We
understand that solar energy may be new for
you and that you may have many questions
regarding your purchase, that's ok, you'll
find that our staff is not only
knowledgeable and friendly but actually
enthusiastic about helping a customer with a
new installation. All of us here at
Solar Home believes firmly in a clean
renewable " Solar Electric Future
" and anything that we can do to make
that future a reality is our mission.

If you don't live in California, then click here to see what kind of financial
incentives your state is offering.
"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.

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 the State of California is currently offering a cash rebate of up to $1,900.00 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
Solar Home 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.
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.
Ask any alternative energy engineer,
installer or dealer and they'll all tell you the same thing. With more than 750,000 Sunny Boy inverters sold and operating worldwide "The Sunny Boy
inverter's proven technology makes this unit one of the best grid
intertie inverters available on today's market." Like a fine German crafted
sports car, Sunny Boy Inverters are engineered and built in Germany, the hotbed
of the worlds finest renewable energy
technology. We've taken Sunny Boy's unbeatable
German craftsmanship and reliability 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
Emerald
series solar systems.
When Reliability And Performance
Really Matter
When it comes to aircraft, reliability
and performance means everything. That's
why Lisa Airplanes chose Trina Solar
Cells for their revolutionary Hy-Bird
Solar and Hydrogen powered aircraft.
Lisa Airplanes in partnership with
Trina Solar on their Hy-Bird solar and
hydrogen powered aircraft.
Trina Solar is
an internationally recognized
manufacturer of mono and
multicrystalline photovoltaic (PV)
modules and has a long history as a
solar PV pioneer since it was founded in
1997. Their high-quality PV modules
provide clean and reliable solar
electric power to on-grid and off-grid
residential, commercial, industrial and
utility scale applications around the
world. With local sales and marketing
offices as well as installation partners
throughout North-America, Europe and
Asia, Trina Solar is committed to
improving the competitiveness and
efficiency of solar energy and
developing a sustainable PV industry.
Thin
might be in when it comes to
waistlines and the latest HDTV sets but
when it comes to securing the bulk of
your investment to the roof of your home
you want the strongest mounting system
made out of the thickest aircraft
grade aluminum that money can buy.
The engineers at UniRac
understand this premise and we do too so
we've added the finest mounting rack
systems available today. The UniRac SolarMount system is unsurpassed in quality
and durability, rated to withstand up to 110 miles per hour wind speeds, UniRac
ClickSys Mounts are engineered to last a lifetime.
Finally we top off our systems with the
best price that you'll find anywhere. In fact, we're so sure that ours is the best deal available, that we'll beat any nationally advertised price on our same, in stock, top of the line systems or your system is free.
Unlike other dealers that will sell you a
barebones system, our premium quality kits include everything you see listed above.
