Step 1: Free Energy Assessment
Every project starts with understanding — not assumptions.
During your assessment, we review: – Your current utility usage – How your utility structures billing – Your home’s layout, roof, and electrical setup – What you’re hoping to change or improve
This conversation is informational. If solar isn’t a strong fit, we’ll say that upfront.
Step 2: System Design & Recommendation
If solar makes sense, we design a system based on your home — not a template.
Your recommendation considers: – Energy needs and usage patterns – Roof layout and orientation –
Equipment options – Utility rules and net metering
We also review solar plan structures so you understand how different options affect predictability and
ownership.
How Net Metering Works
Net metering is how your solar system interacts with your utility — and it’s one of the most common areas
of confusion for homeowners.
Before moving forward, it’s important to understand: – How excess energy is credited – When credits are
applied – How utility rules differ by state and provider
The short video below explains net metering in clear, practical terms.
Step 3: Review, Approval & Paperwork
Once you’re comfortable with the recommendation, we handle the administrative work.
This includes: – Utility interconnection applications – Permit submissions – Final design approvals
You’ll always know what’s being submitted and why.
Step 4: Installation
Installation is completed by vetted installation partners who meet Precision Solar’s quality and
accountability standards.
We coordinate scheduling, inspections, and communication so you’re not managing multiple parties.
Installation timelines vary by project, but we set expectations clearly before work begins.
Step 5: Activation & Ongoing Support
After installation and inspection, your system is activated with your utility.
We walk through: – How your system produces energy – What changes on your utility bill – How to monitor
performance
Our role doesn’t end at activation. We remain available for questions and support.
What Timelines Typically Look Like
Solar timelines vary based on utility requirements, permitting, and project complexity.
We provide estimated timelines early in the process and keep you informed if anything changes.
Delays are explained — not hidden.
