Why Now is the Perfect Time for a Home Solar Installation

Solar is about control. Control your power costs, protect your budget, and invest in your home.

Boost Home Value

Solar is a smart home upgrade that can improve resale appeal and curb monthly bills. Over time, your system can pay for itself and keep savings coming. It supports cleaner energy.

Lock in Pricing

Solar costs can change as equipment availability and scheduling shift. Starting now helps you plan your budget, choose the right system, and avoid delays later with fewer surprises.

Permits Take Time

A solar project includes a site visit, design, permits, and inspections. Getting started early moves approvals along, so you can install sooner and start producing power fast.

Rising Energy Costs

Electricity rates, heating oil, and gas prices continue to climb. Solar reduces your dependence on all of it, stabilizing your energy costs and protecting your household budget no matter what the market does.

I would highly recommend Oak Electric as they did a great job on my project. Two days after the installation of the solar panels a major hail storm came through our area. A lot of cars were damaged by golf ball size hail, but my solar panels made it through the storm without any damage.

We worked with Oak Electric to install an GM Energy home battery backup system, car charger, and compatible solar panels. Every employee was very professional, respectful of our time and space, going above and beyond to solve issues and complete our project. I would highly recommend them to others.

I was completely delighted with the installation process for our solar panels and battery — the team was excellent, professional, communicated well, treated our home with respect, and were very quick — even though we have a ridiculously steep roof that must have been a bear to work with. Totally satisfied!

I recently had Oak Electric install my first 6 solar panels. They were installed professionally. I am now benefitting from these nice sunny spring like days with the panels generating 7 to 10 KWatts daily. I will likely add more to my system using Oak Electric in the future.

We Have Answers

Frquently Asked Questions

How much money will I save with a solar system?

Your current monthly energy use and the size of your system will determine your actual savings amount. And with little or no startup costs, systems can start paying for themselves immediately. Savings will vary based on several factors, including system size, performance, your household’s average energy usage as well as any applicable solar credits, tax incentives, and current solar energy buyback (net metering) rates offered by your utility company.

How long will a solar system last?

Our solar systems are designed to have a useful life of 40 years or more.

How does shade affect a solar system's performance?

It’s important to minimize shading because solar panels operate at optimal output when their entire surface is fully exposed to direct sunlight. The system will still produce energy if it is shaded but its output will lessen.

Will a home solar system increase my property taxes?

Having a solar system typically adds value to your home.* Depending on where you live, there is often no increase in your property taxes.

How do solar systems work?

A photovoltaic (PV) solar energy system is composed of solar panels, racking for mounting the panels on the roof, electrical wiring, and an inverter. From sunrise to sunset, the solar panels generate direct current electricity (DC) which is sent to the inverter. The inverter converts the DC into alternating current (AC), the type of electricity required for household use. The AC power is delivered directly to your home’s main electrical service panel for use by you and your family.
