FAQ
Straight answers
How is Sunwell different from a typical solar sales company?+
We compare Cash, Financing, Lease, and Pre-Paid against your usage and utility rules before you pick a path — instead of pushing one product.
Will I get a hard sell?+
No. If solar isn’t a fit, we’ll say so.
What’s the difference between Cash, Financing, Leases, and Pre-Paid?+
Cash = you own it outright. Financing = you own it with a loan. Leases = a third party owns it and you pay monthly (often with an escalator). Pre-Paid = discounted prepurchase plus a short lease/hold term (often ~6–10 years) with real early cost, then a path to ownership. We model all four.
Will solar lower my electric bill?+
Most qualifying homeowners see meaningful savings. Exact numbers depend on usage, rates, system size, and utility rules. Your quote uses your bill.
What about SRECs, RRES, and CBC?+
Florida is net metering — solar offsets usage on the meter, not a bill-credit program. Connecticut uses RRES (Buy-All vs Netting). New Jersey can stack netting with SuSI/SREC-II. New York still nets at retail for typical rooftops but adds a monthly CBC. Open your state page for company tabs.
Will solar keep my lights on in a blackout?+
Not by itself. Grid-tied solar shuts off during outages for safety. Batteries can cover critical loads — ask for that as a separate line.
Which states do you serve?+
Florida, Connecticut, New Jersey, and New York only.
