For solar professionals
HyreSolar publishes solar guides, research and calculators for homeowners, and intends to pass the requests of homeowners who ask to be connected to solar companies serving their area. Pricing and terms are not set, and registering commits you to nothing.
Where this stands today. The commercial terms below are not decided, and HyreSolar publishes no count of participating companies and no request volume. Registering records your business and service area so you hear first when your market opens.
How would a homeowner reach you?
- A homeowner arrives with a question. A bill that jumped, a system that stopped reporting, a tax credit they half-heard about. They search the problem, not a company name.
- They work through the material. 9 original studies, 45 guides and 28 free calculators, none gated and none asking for an email address.
- They decide they want a professional. By then they have read that a system is compared per watt, that a proposal should name the inverter model, and how the three warranties differ.
- They describe the project and consent. Zip code, goal, property type and their own description. Nothing moves without an explicit consent step of its own.
- The request is matched to you. Against the areas and services you told us you cover. You call, design, quote and contract directly. We are not in that conversation and take no cut of the job.
What will a homeowner have read before calling you?
- The vocabulary. Price per watt, dealer fee, net billing, degradation, and workmanship against product warranty.
- No price anchor. Our price ranges are sourced and dated, and every page says a range is not a quote.
- What a full proposal holds. Size, panel and inverter models, gross price, financing terms and each warranty stated separately.
- The warning signs. Doorstep contracting, same-day-only pricing, savings guarantees and hidden dealer fees.
What does HyreSolar ask of participating companies?
HyreSolar publishes guides telling homeowners how to vet a solar company, so it holds participating companies to the same advice. How we vet is the homeowner-facing version, and choosing an installer is what we tell homeowners to check.
- Registered and traceable. A real, registered business with a verifiable operating history.
- Licensed where required. Current licensing where your state or locality requires it for solar or electrical work.
- Insured. General liability, and workers’ compensation where you employ crews.
- Responsive. Prompt contact on requests you accept. A homeowner who is never called is one we have failed.
- Itemized proposals. System size, equipment models, price before and after incentives, financing terms and each warranty stated separately.
- No pressure tactics. No doorstep contracting and no same-day-only pricing.
- No early guarantees. No savings or payback guarantees before a site assessment.
What is not decided yet?
