The 8-Step Process of Going Solar Made Easy with Nivo
Are you interested in going solar but don’t know where to begin? The 8 Step Process of Going Solar with Nivo.
HERE'S WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT








What if i need a new roof?
We take pride in our work, which is why we only install solar panels on rooftops with at least a 10-year lifespan remaining.
If your roof is due for replacement soon, now is the best time to get it taken care of.
Unlike other solar companies, Nivo offers in-house roof replacements. In fact, many of our customers opt to replace their roofs at the same time as having solar panels installed. This approach allows for financing the entire project cost, which includes the new roof, and receiving tax incentives for the comprehensive solar installation project.Nivo Solar Website FAQ Copy
Who pays for the permits, engineering, and inspections?
Can utility companies buy back my excess power?
Yes, they can. Although, it’s not a guarantee that every home will be eligible for this option.
We have many satisfied customers who receive bill credits at the end of each month. If you’re interested in exploring this possibility, simply provide us with a copy of your bill and we’ll create a customized proposal for your home. This will help you to determine how much you can save and earn back.
If I'm paying close to what my current electric bill is,why would i go solar?
Can i monitor my panels production?
Do i get paid for what i produce?
Opting for solar means participating in the Net Metering system, where produced and consumed energy is exchanged on a one-to-one basis.
Excess energy produced by solar panels earns credits, whereas extra power drawn from the grid incurs a small bill.
What is the life expectancy of a system?
The typical lifespan of solar systems is around 40 years.
This includes a manufacturer’s warranty that covers the first 25 years, ensuring that your system will meet your energy needs for the majority of your lifetime!
