3. VALUE
EQUIPMENT VALUE
Plan It Solar's preferred brands of solar system equipment reflect the highest quality standards on the planet. While other solar companies might sell you the cheapest panels they can find, you will often get exactly what you pay for. We are able to sell PV panels made by BP, Sharp, YIngli, Mitsubishi, SolarWorld, SunTech & Sanyo, but we prefer Evergreen and SunPower. These are the two primary solar panels we sell & their distinct advantages:
Evergreen ES-A-210 210W
The most environmentally friendly solar panel made, with less energy, less silicon, and fewer chemicals needed per panel, plus Evergreens are made here in the US. Less silicon = less cost, and tighter output tolerances = real world output closer to actual rating.
SunPower SPR-230 230W
The world’s most efficient solar panel on the market since 2005, with a unique completely all-black look. Available only at Plan It Solar in the Sierra Foothills.
INSTALLATION VALUE
Beware of the cheap installation! Some contractors may hire inexperienced, uncertified workers to assemble your solar investment. Solar systems are designed to operate for decades if carefully assembled in accordance with all safety codes. Always use a crew run by a NABCEP-certified and experienced hands-on solar electrician. CA Solar Electric Co. ensures that all of Plan It Solar's customers receive a competitively priced installation done by a properly qualified, trained & insured crew. Our list of solar sites includes: Our list of solar sites includes schools, churches, local city and county governments, a wide range of business from bed and breakfasts to lumber yards to carpet stores, historic Masonic lodges, plus
several hundred homes across 10 counties!
