8.2 kW + battery
“Our first bill after switch-on was $11. During the March ice storm we were the only house on the street with lights, and the battery still had 40% in the morning.”
6.6 kW
“Three companies quoted. Brightline was the only one that came up on the roof instead of using a satellite photo, and they found a rotten section of decking the others missed. They fixed it at cost.”
EV charger
“Electrician showed up at 8:00 like they said, ran 40 feet of conduit through a finished basement and you'd never know. Inspection passed first try.”
9.8 kW
“Utility approval took a week longer than quoted, which wasn't their fault, but they called me every Friday with an update. System is beating the production estimate by about 6%.”
Cleaning plan
“Another company installed our panels and then went out of business. Brightline took over monitoring, spotted a dead microinverter, and replaced it under the manufacturer warranty.”

FAQ
Straight answers before you call.
Most homes we install land between 6 and 10 kW, which runs about $18,900 to $30,300 before any incentives. Your quote is itemized: panels, inverters, racking, labor, permits and any electrical upgrades are separate lines.
Only if it has less than about 10 years left. We check shingles, decking and rafters on the free visit. If it's close, we'll tell you plainly and can coordinate with a local roofer so panels go on once.
Grid-tied solar without a battery shuts off during an outage for line-worker safety. With a battery, your chosen circuits switch over automatically in under a second and solar keeps recharging it during the day.
Yes: cash, a 10- or 20-year loan through a regional credit union, or a battery-only payment plan. We don't do leases or PPAs, so the system and its savings are always yours.
Our workmanship warranty covers roof penetrations, leaks, wiring and racking for 25 years, and it transfers if you sell the house. Panels and microinverters carry their own 25-year manufacturer warranties, and we handle those claims for you.
Often, yes. We regularly go up to 40 minutes past the towns listed. Put your ZIP in the quote form and we'll tell you on the first call.
