At Midwest Solar Solutions, we take tremendous pride in a candid, transparent approach to help individuals determine whether solar is a good match for them. The reality is solar systems aren’t the right fit for everyone who contacts us. While it’d be more profitable for our bottom line to convince every potential client to go solar, that’s simply not how we operate or how we believe customers should be treated.
Instead, we provide a comprehensive assessment for your specific situation using high-level software that produces a shade report. Through this analysis, our expert team can project whether the installation of a solar array would be a financially savvy addition to your home. In many cases customers’ solar arrays will pay back their total system cost between 9 to 15 years, which is the national and Illinois average.
Thanks to our straightforward approach and professionalism, MW Solar has earned an A+ BBB rating. We are also well-rated on Google Reviews and have strong testimonials, which you can check out here.
Numerous individuals whom we advised to not purchase a solar system in turn referred their family and friends to us. Why? Trust goes a long way and is earned over time. We’ve developed a reputation as a trustworthy source in an increasingly competitive and rapidly growing market. We look forward to continuing to expand upon that reputation by striving for excellence every day and treating each individual with fairness and respect.
Should I Switch to Solar? Let Us Help
Ultimately, the best way to arrive at a decision is to let the experts help you. Reach out to Midwest Solar Solutions for a free quote. We’re happy to guide you through the solar process and benefits, including incentives, warranties and guarantees.
And at MW Solar, our production guarantee and workmanship warranty spans 15 years. Our production guarantee recurs annually on what we estimate on your proposal. If your system’s output isn’t 85 percent or greater we’ll pay the difference out of pocket, putting our money where our mouth is. When our data demonstrates solar is a good fit for you, we’re willing to back up that claim with dollars.
As you weigh the pluses and minuses of solar for you and your family, there are important questions that must be strongly considered. They include:
- Does your house receive enough sunlight throughout the year?
- Do you have tall trees near your home? How many? What type?
- For roof-mounted systems, what direction does your roof face? What is the angle of your roof?
- Do you qualify for the federal investment tax credit of 30 percent?
- Do you own your home or condominium? Are you considering moving soon?
- Are you considering replacing your roof soon?
- Is a HELOC (home equity line of credit) an option for you?
Each of these criteria can be a determining factor in whether you should go solar. Ultimately, shade reducing the amount of sunlight your panels receive is of chief concern. To give you a sense of how our software works, we’re providing two examples below. These annual irradiance reports and shade reports for two different houses enable our team to evaluate sunlight exposure while helping us pinpoint the ideal location for panel install.
The annual irradiance reports showcase how many kilowatts per year your solar array would receive depending on panel placement. They provide an annual summary — complete with tilt and orientation factor (TOF) and total solar resource fraction (TSRF). And a month-by-month breakdown of your solar access percentage depending on which setup you elected to go with.
In tandem with the color-coded shade reports, this data hopefully gives you a glimpse into how Midwest Solar Solutions can work hand-in-hand with you to decide whether you should pursue going solar. We are excited to speak with you further about your home’s specific circumstances. Reach out to us to get a risk-free quote today!
