General FAQ
How long is the warranty?
Nova West Solar warranties all equipment, parts, and labor for a period of 10 years. Solar panels carry a 25 year warranty and inverters carry a 10 year warranty.
 
How long does it take to install?
It depends on the size of your system. Typically 3-5 days.
 
How big of a system do I need?
It depends on how much power you want to produce. It usually boils down to one of the following:
1. Completely cover the load: we would need to review 12 months worth of bills to more accurately calculate system size.
2. Employ a peak shaving strategy: we would calculate the system size required to eliminate the most expensive rate tiers on their bill.
 
Can I completely eliminate my electric bill?
Unfortunately, there is a minimum fee to remain connected to the grid, usually about 17 cents per day or less than $6 a month.
