Wide Variety of Energy Services

A vast majority of solar installation providers strictly focus on the sales and installation of solar systems. This is one area where Panasun Solar stands out from its competitors as the company is truly focused on helping its clients save on its monthly energy bills while transforming the home into a more energy efficient place. Energy services available through Panasun Solar include the following:

• Energy efficiency — Panasun Solar professionals will identify all ways, including the installation of solar, to optimize a home’s power usage. 
• Duct and air sealing — Installing a solar system is a great first step in turning a home into an energy efficient property. Taking additional precautions like sealing and insulating the home for a more controlled temperature year round will only add to the overall savings. 
• Monitoring and protection — Clients can keep track of their property’s energy usage in real time to ensure that solar savings are on par with desired results. 

Equipment Partnerships

Solar installation companies and solar manufacturers work hand in hand to bring renewable energy sources to the masses, particularly to residential clients. The manufacturers are responsible for developing and producing the equipment while the installation companies typically sell and install the systems. These partnerships between installation and solar manufacturing companies are pivotal to making solar available.

Prospective solar clients are particularly interested in these relationships as it determines what brands a homeowner will have access to through a particular provider. Panasun Solar has gone above and beyond to secure high level partnerships with the following tier-1 solar manufacturers:

• Panels — SunPower, LG, Silfab
• Inverters — Enphase
• Batteries — Tesla

With Pansun Solar, clients can expect to have access to some of the best solar technology available. Not all solar installation companies can offer this level of equipment partnership quality. 

Generous Warranty Terms

Warranties are a standard offering within the solar industry. Because solar is an investment, protecting the money that goes into this type of long-term investment is of utmost importance to clients. Generally, solar companies will offer equipment and workmanship warranties. The terms for these warranties vary.

On average, workmanship warranties (which are backed by the solar installation company itself) last 10 years. Panasun Solar is confident in its installation capabilities and offers a full 25-year workmanship warranty in addition to a 25-year equipment warranty. This essentially protects the system and its connectivity for the lifespan of the system. 

Financing Plans

Since solar is an investment, it often deters homeowners from taking the plunge. However, Panasun Solar has worked to make solar more affordable and attainable by offering a number of financing alternatives that assist a wide variety of financial and budget limitations.

Most solar companies will inform clients that purchasing upfront and in cash allows for the best return on the investment, but it is simply not realistic for many homeowners. In these circumstances, Panasun Solar offers the following alternatives:

Lease

• Can be transferred to new homeowner
• Low monthly payment
• Includes maintenance work
• No upfront costs
• Flat rate each month

Loan

• Low monthly payment
• No upfront cost
• Only pay for energy produced by panels
• Maintenance included
• $0 upfront

Power Purchase Agreement

• Ability to transfer agreement
• Low monthly payment
• Only pay for produced energy

Most solar companies will offer some financial alternatives, but it is not common where a solar contractor offers all financing alternatives associated with solar purchases. Panasun Solar offers it all. 

Backup Power Solutions

While a solar system will allow some level of energy independence, if the system has to be connected to the utility grid, clients are still subject to power outages. Understanding the frustration this causes some homeowners, especially those who routinely deal with poor weather conditions, Panasun believes this disruption is unacceptable. Panasun Solar works to help these clients increase overall energy independence with battery solutions. 

More and more solar companies are offering battery solutions as there is an increased demand for energy independence, but not all companies are qualified to install the highly ranked Tesla Powerwall system like Panasun Solar is. Panasun Solar will offer whole home backup with the industry leading Tesla Powerwall.  

• No NABCEP Certification

No NABCEP Certification

The only glaring missing element to the Panasun Solar platform is the absence of the company or project leader NABCEP certification. The North American Board of Certified Energy Professionals is widely considered to be the gold standard certification organization within the renewable energy industry.

Many solar installation providers will at least have one solar professional in-house that has obtained this NABCEP certification. Unfortunately for Panasun Solar clients, there are no NABCEP-certified professionals on the company’s staff.
