Compare solar for your South Florida home.

An installer sells its own equipment, financing, and crew. An independent broker compares multiple vetted installation partners on equipment, price, and financing, then hands the project to the licensed partner who performs the work under its own contract and warranty. Palm Beach Solar is the broker: the comparison is free, and the installation contract and workmanship warranty belong to the partner.

Actual savings depend on your system size, roof characteristics, FPL rate plan, and energy usage. FPL's net metering program credits excess production monthly. Unused annual credits at year-end true-up are paid at the average generation cost, not the retail rate. System sizing is generally limited to 115% of annual consumption. Your Palm Beach Solar proposal will include a site-specific savings estimate and 25-year production model based on your actual FPL bills.

Yes — the majority of Palm Beach County homes have tile roofs, and we specialize in tile roof solar installations. Proper flashing and racking are critical to avoid voided tile warranties. We only work with installers who have demonstrated tile roof expertise.

Purchase structures include cash purchase, prepaid lease, $0 down solar loans, PACE financing (payments added to your property tax bill), and lease/PPA programs, all subject to credit and property eligibility. Note: The federal residential solar tax credit (Section 25D) ended for expenditures after December 31, 2025, which removed a benefit that previously applied to financed systems. Your advisor will show the total cost and monthly obligation for each structure so you can compare them directly rather than by monthly payment alone.

Our licensed installation partners hold current manufacturer certifications, including Tesla Certified Installer status for battery storage and SolarEdge certification for inverters. Tesla requires installers to pass its Powerwall 3 exam before installing or commissioning those systems, and SolarEdge maintains its own certified installer program. The certification belongs to the licensed partner that performs the design, installation, and warranty work — not to Palm Beach Solar, which is an independent advisor. Ask for the specific certification and license number for your project.

Physical installation takes 1–2 days. From signed contract to system activation, recent projects have averaged about 60 days, including local permitting; your partner confirms the schedule. SolarAPP+ expedited review is available for eligible residential rooftops in unincorporated Palm Beach County.

Florida Building Code requires all solar installations to meet local wind load requirements. Specific racking systems and panel certifications vary by installer and equipment selected. Your proposal will identify the equipment used and its wind rating.
