Philadelphia Homeowners: See If Solar Makes Sense for Your Home

No. Answering these questions and scheduling a consultation is not a purchase. You'll have the chance to review the details, see any proposal, and ask questions before deciding whether to move forward.

Just the basics: whether you own the home, your approximate monthly electricity bill, your electric provider, and the property address. You don't need to know anything technical about solar. If you can, have a recent electricity bill nearby for the consultation.

Your answers give us a starting picture of your property and electricity usage. During your consultation, a solar specialist reviews the details with you — such as your usage, roof, and utility — to see which options may be available. Final eligibility is subject to the installer, utility, and program requirements that apply to your property.

No. Solar suitability can depend on factors such as property ownership, roof characteristics, electricity usage, utility requirements, available products, and other eligibility criteria.

A solar specialist goes over the information you provided, explains the options that may be available for your home, answers your questions, and walks through any proposal with you. You decide whether it makes sense for your household.

It varies by home. Timing can depend on design, permitting, utility requirements, equipment availability, and scheduling. Your specialist can explain the typical steps and what to expect for your situation.

Energy Saving Oasis provides solar education, home qualification, and sales support — we are not the installation contractor. Installation is handled by an installation partner. Your solar specialist can tell you who would handle installation for your property before you make any decision.

Cost depends on factors such as system size, equipment, roof and property characteristics, your electricity usage, and how a project is financed or paid for. Because it differs from home to home, we don't publish prices here — your specialist can walk through the details for your property.
