Forecast Your Savings 

Before even consulting with Palmetto, homeowners can forecast their savings in just a few short minutes with Palmetto's solar savings estimate calculator. This is a free estimate to find out just how much you can save on your utility bill without directly speaking with anyone from the company.

Many solar installation companies require a meeting before providing this information. The more you know about solar during the research phase, the better.

If you are happy with the numbers, then you can easily schedule a consultation for a more in-depth, personalized solar quote for your unique solar array.

Handles Everything from Financing to Installation 

For many homeowners, all the licenses, permits, technologies, incentives, municipal requirements, and schedule juggling can be pretty overwhelming (if not downright demotivating). When there are multiple points of contact for consumers across various third parties, crucial details can fall through the cracks.

To help lighten your load, Palmetto offers clients a variety of end-to-end solar solutions that allow you to relax. The company oversees everything from financing, design, engineering, permitting, and installation.

Extended Protection 

In addition to the typical warranties provided by players in the solar industry, Palmetto offers an additional monitoring option.

Palmetto offers homeowners a little extra protection for their rooftop solar panels for less than $10 per month. 

In 2021, Palmetto launched its new solar energy monitoring program, Palmetto Protect. It is available through the company app and provides information on energy production, consumption (if applicable), and savings. This app is excellent for homeowners who want to monitor their solar panel's productivity easily and, of course, their savings.

In addition to the basic Palmetto Protect plan, Palmetto offers three paid versions - ranging from $8 per month to $49 per month. Each plan comes with different benefits.

Essentials Plan 

• 24/7 proactive monitoring by the Palmetto team
• Monthly system review and personalized recommendations to optimize energy efficiency and save money
• Prioritized support and troubleshooting
   

Standard Plan 

• Annual on-site visual inspection to ensure overall system health
• System health report based on visual inspection
• Discounts from top-rated local service providers for any new products or services

Premium Plan 

• Annual panel cleaning (up to 25 panels) or one free service visit
• Guaranteed service appointments within 24 hours
• Consultation on a potential smart device, storage, and EV savings

Palmetto's extended protection is entirely optional but could help you optimize your savings and ensure that your solar energy system is working at full efficiency. Not only would you get 24/7 professional monitoring services from the Palmetto Team, but a representative would also visit annually to ensure your panels are in good working condition.

Financing Options 

The majority of Palmetto customers finance their solar systems with no money down.

Palmetto has a dedicated customer care team available to explain, clarify, and help you determine your financing options, including system costs, monthly savings, and loan payments.

As you approach solar financing, be sure to consult a tax professional regarding federal and state solar incentives, as the current tax credit applies to any taxes owed for that calendar year. Your usable credit will vary depending on your financial situation.

Positive Customer Reviews and a High Response Rate

Despite a few complaints about delayed communication, the majority of Palmetto's reviews attest to exceptional customer service and an easy solar panel installation process. Palmetto Solar actively interacts with customers online and has a 100 percent review response rate.
