What happens after you start
Solar is a home-specific decision. A useful starting point needs more than a national average, but it should not require a long application. Solar Near Us begins with only the details needed for an initial match.
- 01
Share the basics
Enter your ZIP code, homeownership status, approximate electric bill, and contact details. The request takes about a minute.
- 02
We check for a local fit
Location and project basics help determine whether an available solar provider may serve your home and project type.
- 03
Discuss the home
A provider may ask about roof age, shade, electricity usage, and your goals before preparing any home-specific estimate.
- 04
Compare before deciding
Review system size, projected production, equipment, warranties, cash price, financing terms, and who handles future service.
What we are—and what we are not
Solar Near Us is an independent education and matching service. We are not a solar installer, equipment manufacturer, utility, lender, or government agency. Providers are responsible for their own proposals, claims, products, pricing, licenses, and work.
No obligation to purchase
Requesting information does not require you to buy solar, accept financing, or sign an installation agreement. Take the time you need to review written terms and verify provider credentials.
How to compare solar proposals
- Compare the same system size and estimated annual production.
- Ask for both the cash price and total financed cost.
- Check equipment, roof-work, workmanship, and production warranties.
- Confirm who installs the system and who handles service calls.
- Read cancellation, transfer, and early-payoff terms carefully.
- Verify licenses and insurance through your state or local authority.
