Overall a great experience. The install of the panels and the IQ combiner box looks as if they were part of the house. The enphase app is user friendly. I highly recommend Sunwell Solar Company.

Responsive communication. Easy to work with. Many years of knowledge and experience in the solar industry. Professional installation. Highly recommended.

Christopher B.

The Sunwell Solar team did an amazing job setting up our home solar system. Friendly, courteous, and professional at every step from the initial site survey, to planning, and install. Clear and prompt communication throughout and addressed all of our concerns. We participated in the Solar Equity Program which required a lot of extra paperwork and forms and Sunwell was very organized and made it a breeze. We had an 18 panel system installed with a 225A main service panel upgrade. 5/5 amazing service! Will be using this company again in the future when we install a home battery backup and electric car charger.

Common Questions About Solar Power in San Diego

Solar power installation is a major undertaking for your home, so you are sure to have a few questions. Here are the answers to some frequent queries we receive.

Your savings will depend on several variables. However, we typically see 55% savings from systems without batteries and up to 90% savings in systems with grid-tied batteries.

Yes. There are minimum charges to be connected to the grid.

The base price for an average 6kW solar system (6000 watts) with a single 5kWh battery should be about $24250 ($19500 for solar plus $4750 for the battery). Receiving the 30% federal tax credit reduces the overall cost to $16975.

Currently, the federal government offers a 30% tax credit on new solar installations. Locally, we suggest you look at the San Diego Solar Equity Program and Self-Generation Incentive Program. Sunwell Solar is proud to be an approved installer for both of these programs.

The absolute best time is when you’re replacing your roof, as it allows for the installation of solar infrastructure without disturbing the existing roof.

While we can work with other brands, we proudly install Enphase systems and batteries, which are known for their safety, reliability, and strong industry warranties. For racking, we work with dependable products from Ironridge and Unirac. Our solar panels come from reliable companies such as QCELL, LONGI, Panasonic, Canadian Solar, and Solar 4 America.

Yes. The solar systems we install come standard with both production and consumption data monitoring.

A good rule of thumb is one week from the start of construction to the final inspection. Usually, Permission To Operate comes from SDGE within a week of the final inspection.

We highly recommend batteries for new solar PV systems. While a system without batteries can save you 55% on your electric bill, adding a single 5kWh battery can increase that percentage up to 80%. We use reliable Enphase batteries on our solar systems.

Grid-tied batteries are strictly for energy bill savings. Adding battery backup allows your solar and batteries to continue operating when grid power goes out, decreasing your reliance on the grid.

Yes. We can include an EV charging station with your solar installation for an additional cost.

Yes. We can install critter guards around your panels to prevent animals from nesting underneath them, preventing the damage they can cause. They guards will also keep leaves and other debris from accumulating under the panels.
