The reviews on this page are not based on personal or hands-on testing because it isn’t possible for our team to test the purchasing and installation process for every installer on the market. Instead, we base our reviews on thorough research, interviews, and unbiased facts about solar installers. The standardized criteria for these reviews include the installer’s BBB rating, number of serviceable states, years of experience, financing options, and the services provided. We reviewed Lumio based on Better Business Bureau ratings, experience, service areas, and more, detailed in the following table.
The process of going solar with Momentum Solar is simple. Here are steps to expect when working with the company.
Momentum Solar serves residential customers in Arizona, California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Texas. If Momentum Solar does not operate in your area, consider one of the other best solar companies.
You can significantly lower your energy costs by investing in solar panels. Enter some basic information below and we’ll provide an instant, free estimate of solar cost and savings for your home.
Residential solar systems are Momentum Solar’s primary product. The company sells and installs monocrystalline tier-1 solar panels from various manufacturers. The tier-1 rating signifies the panels are made from high-quality materials with high efficiency and long-lasting performance. You can purchase or lease Momentum Solar panels in nearly a dozen states, including Arizona, California, and Florida.
Momentum Solar also installs Enphase microinverters as part of its solar systems. Microinverters are connected to individual solar panels and turn the electricity produced by the panels from direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) electricity, which your home requires for energy. Enphase’s micro inverters are some of the best options on the market.
Similarly, Momentum Solar partners with Enphase on its Momentum Solar + Storage product. Solar battery storage provides a backup power source during outages to keep necessary appliances running and help you get more out of your solar investment. Specifically, the company offers Enphase’s Encharge 3, Encharge 10, and Enpower Smart Switch. Momentum’s team can help you determine which battery backup is right for your home.
Momentum Solar provides a 25-year extended solar panel warranty covering the equipment and the quality of work-related issues. Momentum’s guarantee is in addition to the manufacturer’s warranty on the solar panels.
During the solar installation process, you can download the Momentum Solar App to track the progress of your project from your smartphone. Following installation, you can track your energy usage and solar system production with the app. Monitoring solar energy generation and usage is a great way to help maximize your energy consumption and potential savings.
In the U.S., the median cost of a solar system is $31,558 before claiming any tax credits, incentives, and rebates, according to the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. However, theprice for solar varies based on where you live, how much power you consume, and the types of solar panels you choose. The best way to get an accurate solar quote for your home is directly from a Momentum Solar representative.
Purchasing a solar system is expensive, but Momentum Solar has several financing options to help make solar accessible. For example, if you want to own your solar system, you can make a cash purchase or take out a solar loan. If you aren’t ready to purchase solar panels outright, Momentum Solar gives you the option to lease solar panels or enter a power purchase agreement (PPA) — but you won’t be eligible for the Residential Clean Energy Credit,net metering, or other solar incentives.
