Full-Service Solar Installation

Titan Solar Power conducts a five-step solar panel installation process to help homeowners maximize their savings:

  • Initial survey and consultation — During the initial survey, solar cell experts will evaluate the home’s current energy needs and costs, then design a customized system to help homeowners produce as much solar energy as their budgets and roof size will allow.
  • Permit pulling — Titan Solar Power will pull all necessary permits with the city, the HOA, and any other authority to ensure every solar installation is up to code.
  • Panel installation — Titan’s solar experts will implement the design and mount the solar panel system and inverter(s) to industry requirements (can take between 1 and 5 days).
  • Final inspection — Once the system is in place, the city or country will conduct a final inspection. Customers should note that this process can take a few weeks to complete.
  • Grid connection — after the system passes inspection, Titan Solar Power will coordinate with the utility company to ensure the solar array meets all interconnection rules. Customers can start saving money the minute the system gets plugged into the power grid.

High-Quality Solar Equipment

Titan Solar Power prides itself on the quality of solar panel and solar inverter equipment it uses for its residential solar arrays. In addition to LG solar panels and the LG Chem solar backup battery, Titan has also formed a partnership with a leading solar panel manufacturer in Silfab. This partnership has made Titan Solar Power one of the few solar installers in business that sells privately labelled solar panels. Titan customers can rest assured knowing that a Titan solar panel is one of the top solar panels made today.

As for the solar installer’s inverter selection, the company primarily installs SolarEdge inverters, which are considered the industry leader in microinverter technology. New SolarEdge models report energy transfer at 99 percent energy efficiency.

The company also installs the Generac PWRCell solar generator as an additional service. Like the LG Chem battery, this device stores excess solar power that can be used at night, or in the event of a power outage or other disturbance.

All Titan Solar Power equipment comes with a 25-year warranty.

Awards and Certifications

As mentioned above, Titan Solar Power was identified as one of Inc.’s 5,000 fastest growing companies in 2018. The company has also received recognition within the solar industry by Solar Power World Magazine. From 2016 — only three years after its founding — to 2029, Titan Solar Power was named a “Top 500 Solar Contractor,” cracking the top 50 the last three out of those four years. Companies that make this list, have demonstrated their ability to successfully install a significant amount of solar power within their service area. As of 2019, Titan solar power has installed more than 220,00 kilowatts of solar energy across seven states in the county, an impressive feat by such a young company.

Titan Solar Power also employs solar professionals who have received their NABCEP certification. The North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners is an organization widely regarded in the solar industry as a gatekeeper for industry best practices, installation and professionalism standards, and technological literacy. 

25-Year Extended Warranty

Though few details are mentioned on the company website, Titan Solar Power does appear to offer a 25-year extended warranty to customers through its authorized partner program. More information about what’s covered under this warranty should be disclosed in order for customers to have an accurate idea of how the company will support them post-installation.

Loanpal Partnership

In addition to cash purchase, Titan Solar Power gives customers the option to finance their solar panel system through the company’s partnership with Loanpal, a third-party financier that specializes in solar loans. Loanpal boasts high approval rates, fast financing, and loan amounts of up to $100,000. 

Charitable Giving

As part of its deal program, Titan dedicates a portion of all sales to a number of charitable organizations:

  • Phoenix Children’s Hospital
  • Lupus Foundation of America
  • Feed My Starving Children
  • Mercy Ships
  • Compassion International
  • Givepower
  • And more

The Bad

  • No Lease or PPA Financing
  • Insufficient Customer Reviews

No Lease or PPA Financing

While both purchase and loan options are available through Titan Solar Power, solar lease and power purchase agreement options do not appear to be. And considering the broad service area the company covers, one would hope that more financing options would be available to help customers go solar. Solar leases and PPAs, while not qualifying customers for the federal solar tax credit or a path to ownership, often do allow them to take advantage of solar power and save money while doing so.

Insufficient Customer Reviews

Titan Solar Power's awards and certifications are certainly impressive; however, verified Titan Solar Power reviews from actual customers would help to bolster the company’s reputation in the eyes of prospective buyers.

The Bottom Line

In a relatively short amount to time, Titan Solar Power has done an impressive amount of solar installation work across the country. With high-efficiency solar equipment and flexible loan options, the company is working hard to make a quality solar power system accessible to its customers. On these merits alone, the company is worth looking into and seeking a free quote from. That said, the company lags behind top solar companies in the industry in terms of its available financing options as well as a large swath of verified customer reviews.
