What to Expect During Your Solar Installation

So, you’ve decided to go solar—congratulations! Now, what’s the process look like? Here’s a step-by-step guide so you know exactly what to expect.

Step 1: Free Consultation & Energy Assessment

We’ll review:

• Your roof’s sun exposure

• Your current energy usage

• Your savings goals

From there, we design a custom solar system for your home—not a cookie-cutter setup.

Step 2: Paperwork & Permits

Solar involves some paperwork, but we’ve got it handled:

• CHNG Energy applies for all city and utility permits

• We manage net metering applications

• You get a timeline and clear checklist

Step 3: Installation Day

Most residential installations take just 1–3 days:

• We arrive on time and walk you through the day’s plan

• Panels are mounted and wiring is completed

• The inverter and monitoring system are set up so you can track your energy in real time

We treat your home like it’s our own—clean, respectful, and efficient.

Step 4: Final Inspection & Utility Approval

• A local inspector and your utility company will do a final review.

• Once approved, you’ll get the green light to turn your system on.

Step 5: Power Up!

Once connected, your system begins producing clean, renewable energy—and your monthly savings start immediately.

CHNG Energy stays with you after installation too—with support, maintenance, and system monitoring to keep things running smoothly.
