BP Solat offers better value for the money

BP Solar vs. the Competition

If you have been pricing out systems, you will probably notice that the BP Solar/Home Depot program is not the cheapest. However, you get what you pay for. Companies that work on slim margins are typically out of business once sales slow down. You are investing in a long-term utility system, so you need to be backed by a company who will also be around for the duration.

Imagine, if you will, purchasing your system from "Joe Solar", who has set up shop because of all the federal and state rebates. Once the IRS eliminates the 30% tax refund and the state rebate programs end, do you think that Joe Solar will still be around trying to offer these systems at the full retail price? More likely, Joe Solar will be setting up shop in the next state that is offering incentives, or may be in a different line of business.

BP Solar is not a fly-by-night operation

Keep in mind that since you are financing your system for at least 15 years, and the IRS and your state government are covering more than 50% of the total cost, your net difference in your monthly payment between the reliable BP Solar / Home Depot system and that offered by Joe Solar may not be that much. In fact, based on a 15  year 6% interest rate, for every $1,000 difference in the upfront system price, your monthly payment increases by only about $4, after your IRS rebate and your state rebate. Is it not worth paying a little bit more, knowing that the company who manufactured your system and the one who installed it will still be around to service it under your warranty?

Like other industries, the solar power industry has its scammers. Click here to read an article about a solar sales and installation company that took deposits for solar power systems but never delivered the systems. If the link is no longer active, it is about a solar contractor in the South Bay area of CA, where his company took deposits but never installed the solar systems. At least 30 customers were victims. The contractor went to jail.

You can take your chances with any of the dozens of solar power companies that are out there, or you can leave your worries behind and contact an authorized BP Solar / Home Depot solar consultant.

One other important factor to keep in mind - our price includes ALL permit costs and inspections. Many other installers don't include this in their price.
