From First Call to Power On

5-step process

1. 1

   Free Consultation with Chris

   Call, text, or fill out the form. Chris personally reviews your situation. No pressure, no obligation. Discuss your goals, budget, timeline, and any solar concerns.

   • ~15-30 minute conversation
   • Chris answers every question in plain English
   • If solar doesn't make sense, he'll tell you
2. 2

   Home Assessment

   Professional site survey: roof condition, shade analysis, solar potential, electrical panel inspection.

   • 30-60 minute on-site visit (or remote via satellite)
   • Roof age + condition flagged for Smart Bundle eligibility
   • Shade analysis identifies optimal panel placement
   • Electrical panel checked for capacity
3. 3

   Chris Shops the Market

   Chris reaches out to vetted NJ companies. Gets competing quotes for your specific home. Compares pricing, equipment, warranties, and timelines.

   • Typically 3-5 quotes from vetted installer partners
   • Side-by-side comparison sheet you can keep
   • Chris flags red lines (escalator clauses, vague warranties)
4. 4

   You Choose, Chris Manages

   Review quotes side-by-side with Chris's guidance. He handles all paperwork: permits, utility applications, SREC registration, interconnection. Approvals typically take ~45 days.

   • Chris walks you through the contract line by line
   • Permits filed with your municipality
   • SREC-II registration submitted
   • Utility interconnection application processed
5. 5

   Installation & Savings

   Professional installation (typically one day). Final inspections. Utility grants permission to operate. System goes live — you start saving. Chris checks in afterward to make sure everything's working perfectly.

   • 1-2 day install (3-5 days if Smart Bundle includes roof)
   • Municipal + electrical inspections
   • Utility PTO (Permission To Operate)
   • System monitoring setup; Chris confirms first month's production
