The first step in preparing for your San Diego Solar project is to do a site evaluation. An AET Solar representative will visit your location and analyze solar and wind potential. He will determine the type of mounting structure required and it’s location, the energy usage of the home, farm or business and the size SunPower system that will make the most economical sense. The representative will also discuss the equipment available and point out what equipment is the most appealing aesthetically.
After the site visit a proposal is developed. We will provide the customer with a complete breakdown of the proposed equipment and the installation costs. We will also provide the customer with a projected energy production estimate, system cost breakdown and expected benefits. We will also handle all paperwork involving rebates and other incentives. The customer’s own tax advisor best handles tax credits although we will point out state and federal regulations offering these credits. In the case of farm or commercial systems there are additional accelerated depreciation benefits available. If the customer accepts our proposal we will sign a contract detailed the job to be performed. At this point we will also prepare and submit rebate reservation requests.
Our experienced installers will perform system installation. We pride ourselves on the quality of our installers. We emphasize timely installation along with site housekeeping. Your location will be as clean when we leave, as it was when we arrived. Attention to detail is an important part of our process. Grounding methods that we use are not only code compliant but also the recommended method by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Conduit, junction boxes, disconnects and other devices exposed to the elements are those approved for outdoor use. We also pay close attention to the appearance of the system. Panels that are installed in a haphazard manner are like a tile installation with uneven grout lines. We make sure that panels are installed evenly and aligned perfectly.
