Zenernet Frequently Asked Questions
How does going solar with Zenernet work?
Zenernet is focused on making the process of going solar easy and stress-free. Our sales process is entirely remote — our consultants will not need to come to your home. We start with a no-pressure consultation to educate you and answer all your questions about going solar. Then, we’ll work with you to design a system that looks and performs the way you want it to. We’ll discuss pricing and financing options and evaluate your expected return on investment. Once we reach an agreement, we’ll schedule your home visit and installation. Nothing to it!
How much does a solar energy system from Zenernet cost?
Zenernet is relentlessly committed to driving down the cost of going solar. Our mission is to Accelerate Energy Independence for All, and we know the best way to do that is to make the numbers add up for more homeowners considering going solar. Our prices are competitive and transparent — we won’t waste your time with unnecessary markups and haggling over nickels and dimes.
What solar panels does Zenernet use?
Zenernet has access to almost every panel on the market. Our approach is hardware agnostic — rather than selling on a recognizable brand name, we evaluate the market and the customer’s needs to find the best fit possible. This way, we can ensure great performance at a great value, for every customer. However, if you have a specific panel model or manufacturer you prefer, we can source it for you to use in your system.
What happens if something breaks or goes wrong with my solar system?
Zenernet offers some of the strongest warranties in the industry. We offer a 25-year workmanship warranty that covers both your system and your roof against any material defects or damages caused by installation for 25 years. We also use hardware and panels with strong manufacturer’s warranties. In the unlikely event you experience a problem with your system, you can rest assured it will be covered by warranty with Zenernet.
How long does it take for Zenernet to install panels?
In most markets we operate in, we can have a system installed within 30–45 days. However, installation timelines vary by location and season and can take longer in some circumstances. We’ll always be transparent with expected installation timelines, so you won’t have to deal with any surprises.
Does Zenernet offer solar monitoring?
Yes, Zenernet includes standard solar production monitoring so you’ll be able to keep tabs on your system’s production and monitor trends over time. In addition, Zenernet offers Sense* smart home technology, an innovative consumption monitoring technology that provides insight into how you consume energy, right down to individual appliances. This can help you be more efficient in your home energy usage and get even more value from your system.
*Sense is not available in all cases — ask your Zenernet energy consultant for more details
How many states is Zenernet in?
Zenernet is active in these states: Arizona, California, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Nevada, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Texas.

Whenever there was an issue or I had a question, I'd give a call and they would get back to me. Installation went well. It was one of those things where it was very quick. They did exactly what I wanted and it looks really good. The panels I got are really good quality with a 25 year warranty. The inverter is great and I absolutely love the app. They kept me informed.

Craig Hunter
This was, far and away, the most thorough well-thought-out, and well-explained presentation for a rooftop solar project. Very impressive. Moreover, the design allowed for close to 100% coverage of our electric needs, whereas a couple of competing proposals or a little more than half of that.

4.5 rating. Good overall information, quality products. Would have given 5 star rating, except for some confusion re: difficulty locating satellite pic of my home to give accurate proposal (new build in new development) and difficulty in obtaining price of additional accessories, ie. critter barrier. Was able to negotiate for accessories to be added at no charge. WooHoo! Daniel was very knowledgeable, courteous, and overall low pressure.

I wanted to take a minute and review about Zenernet and particularly Robert and Greg who I asked a lot of questions and they answered very patiently.

Zenernet was a great experience from start to finish. Greg, our original point of contact answered all of our questions and did a wonderful job walking us through the somewhat lengthy process of going solar. After Greg, we had a lengthy list of contacts who were constantly keeping us up to date with our project. We never felt out of the loop, which was very comforting. We vetted 4-5 other solar companies, and are very happy that we chose Zenernet.

Paul Taylor
THe sales team is very responsive. However, once the account is switched to a project manager, everything falls apart. The worst is the subcontractor who, first had our single-home system as a ground array, then the surveyor they sent placed the electrical panel on the wrong side of the house (of which he took pictures of), and then no one is paying attention to the efficiency of the system. Yes, they sold 16 panels, but are not really interested in the efficiency of those panels and how they're installed on the roof and in which direction. There is a lack of follow-through with the customer and listening to what the customer wants. If this gets fixed, I'll update this review.

I had already done quite a bit of research, and I still had A LOT of questions. I was frustrated with the way many companies presented the information and quotes. For me, going solar is a big deal. It's a significant upfront cost (even if, or especially if, you are financing) and it's a longterm choice. I wanted to understand as best I could exactly what I was getting into. Shae and Brandon were patient, respectful, responsive and clear. I felt that I had been given all the information I needed to make an informed response and I am so grateful.
