Why We Build Your System 25% Bigger

Under NEM 3.0, you no longer get the 1-to-1 credit you used to receive with NEM 2.0. Exporting solar back to the grid earns you pennies on the dollar. That’s why we design every system at 125% of your annual consumption — so your panels produce enough to fully power your home and charge your battery, without relying on grid credits that no longer make financial sense.

Paired with a Tesla Powerwall, your system stores excess solar during the day and runs your home off battery every evening from 4pm to 9pm — when SCE charges up to $0.58/kWh. This is how we eliminate your bill.

Premium Solar Panels — Built to Last

We use top-tier domestic and tariff-free panels so your investment is protected. Every panel comes with a 25-year manufacturer warranty.

IronRidge racking on tile roof

Professional Racking & Roof Mounting

Your panels are only as good as what holds them to your roof. We use IronRidge — the industry standard — engineered for strength, speed, and code compliance. Made in the USA.

Tile Roofs: Specialized tile hooks mount securely beneath the tiles without damaging them. Your roof stays intact and watertight.

Comp/Shingle Roofs: IronRidge FlashFoot2 mounts with integrated flashing — waterproof, code-compliant, and clean-looking from the street.

Solar monitoring app

Real-Time Energy Monitoring

Every system includes app-based monitoring. See exactly how much power your panels produce, how much your home uses, and how much your battery stores — all from your phone.

With the Tesla app, you get real-time visibility into solar production, Powerwall charge level, home consumption, and grid status. With Enphase, you get per-panel monitoring so you can see every panel individually.

Knowledge is power — literally. Watching your system produce free electricity never gets old.

Smart Inverters — The Brain of Your System

The inverter converts DC power from your panels into AC power your home can use. We use the best in the industry.

Tesla Powerwall 3

Built-in solar inverter — no separate box needed. Fewer components, cleaner install, higher efficiency. Monitored through the Tesla app.

🔌

Enphase Microinverters

Panel-level optimization — each panel works independently. If one is shaded, the rest produce at full power. Per-panel monitoring included.

📱

App-Based Control

Both Tesla and Enphase provide smartphone apps for real-time monitoring, alerts, and system management from anywhere.

Tesla Powerwall 3

Tesla Powerwall 3 — Your Energy Shield

Under NEM 3.0, batteries are essential. You need to use your own solar power during peak hours (4–9pm) instead of buying from SCE at up to $0.58/kWh.

Each Powerwall 3 stores 13.5 kWh with a built-in inverter. One battery handles lights, plugs, and essentials through peak. Running AC and heavy appliances? You’ll want two.

Our goal: Zero grid power from 4pm to 9pm, every single day. That’s how we eliminate your bill.
