Residential Solar PV

Thank you for your interest in mtvSolar! Our green building experience allows us the unique advantage of understanding how building and solar components work together. This enables Mountain View Solar to develop and install a solar energy system that will best suit your home and energy needs. Mountain View Solar installs only premium equipment, guaranteed to last.

Is solar worth it?

Absolutely! No matter how large or small your installation, you will directly offset your electricity bill by a certain percentage. Every system pays for itself in electricity bill savings. After you break even, you make money via saved utility costs.

Can I afford it?

Absolutely! mtvSolar is equipped to assist with various financing options. Click here to learn more!

How much solar do I need for my ____sq ft house?

The size of your system is based on how much electricity that you use, not the size of the house. When we do an evaluation, we take into account your annual electricity consumption, the size of your roof or other location suitable for solar, and budget.

Does solar keep the power on during an outage?

If you have batteries, yes. We specialize in custom battery backup systems which can keep the lights on when the grid fails. If you do not have batteries, then the utility grid is equivalent to your “battery”. Therefore, when the grid fails, the system must shut down as well.

Can I monitor my system’s performance online?

Absolutely! Provided that you have an always-on Internet connection, we set up your monitoring free as part of our service package. For locations without Internet, we have cellular options available.

Can I install solar in stages?

Absolutely! You can start with as few as eight panels, and we will size the remaining components to support the maximum size desired. The more panels that you install at any one time, the lower the price per panel.

Do you install on a metal roof?

Absolutely! We also install on any other roof type capable of supporting the load, as well as the ground. During an evaluation we can determine if your roof is suitable for solar.

What kind of warranty is available?
