UNRG Solar · Home solar
Your powerstarts here.
Every watt your roof will ever make starts out as light leaving the sun. Scroll down and follow it home.
01 · The trip
Sunlight crosses about 93 million miles of empty space to get here. The trip takes roughly 8 minutes and 20 seconds. No fuel, no pipeline, no delivery truck.
02 · The planet
Plenty of sun to go around.
Above the atmosphere, every square meter facing the sun gets about 1,361 watts of sunlight. Some gets lost on the way down. Plenty still makes it to your roof.
Now, let's bring it home.
03 · Your roof
Your roof, put to work.
We design each system around the home it sits on: your roof, your shade, and the way your household actually uses power.

05 · Inside the panel
What's inside a solar panel.
Glass, encapsulant, silicon cells, a second encapsulant, a backsheet and a junction box, all held in an aluminum frame.
A solar panel is a stack of layers: an aluminum frame, tempered glass, an encapsulant, silicon solar cells, a second encapsulant, a backsheet, and a junction box.
06 · Why solar
Why homeowners are making the switch.
Lower monthly bills
Power you make on your own roof is power you don't have to buy from the utility.
More control
When part of your power comes from your own roof, you're less exposed to whatever rates do next.
Quiet and low upkeep
There are no moving parts up there. Panels mostly need sunlight and the occasional check-up.
Cleaner power
Solar panels make electricity without burning anything. No smoke, no noise, no fuel deliveries.

08 · Questions
Good questions, straight answers.
Yes, just at a lower output. Panels respond to daylight, not heat, so they keep producing under clouds. You'll see less power on a gray day and more on a bright one.
Panels don't produce at night, so your home pulls power from the grid like it does today. If your utility offers net metering or a similar program, extra power you sent out during the day can help offset what you use after dark.
Very little. There are no moving parts, and rain usually keeps them clean enough. It's still smart to keep an eye on production and have the system checked if the numbers drop.
It depends on the roof's direction, shade, age and condition. In the U.S., roofs facing south, east or west with little shade tend to work well. We'll look at yours during the consultation and tell you straight.
It varies a lot with local permitting and your utility's approval process. Once we've seen your home and know where you are, we'll give you a realistic timeline.
The federal residential clean energy credit for homeowner-owned systems ended for systems placed in service after December 31, 2025. Some states and utilities run their own programs, so it's worth asking what's available where you live. A tax professional can tell you how any of it applies to you.
