Frequently Asked Questions
How soon does Solar CenTex say it can install a system?
The company guarantees installation and production within 30 days of a customer's decision. It says it will reimburse expected solar production if the system is not producing by then.
Does Solar CenTex offer financing?
Solar CenTex says it can arrange financing for individual circumstances; for veterans, it lists a Texas Veterans Land Board home-efficiency loan with terms up to 20 years.
Are batteries required for residential solar?
The company says batteries are typically not needed for residential systems. With a grid-tied system, excess midday solar can feed back to the grid for a renewable-energy credit on the customer's bill.
