A grid-tied solar power system is connected to the electric utility grid, which allows power from the grid to kick in if your solar panels are unable to produce enough energy on their own at any given time.
An off-grid system is not connected to the utility grid and is completely self-sustaining.

The tech was amazing but the company is awful. They quoted $2600 for the job. I called a smaller local hvac company who did the job for $789. I cant believe home depot would work with a company who would screw over customers with abhorrent and ridiculous prices. I will never use home depot again because we thought the diagnosis fee would be rolled into the j9b but when the quote is over 300% of what the job should be then we feel taken advantage of for a quick diagnosis fee when other companies would have done it cheaper. I really feel slighted by the ARS company and home depot

Other than muddy footprints on your carpet I am very satisfied with the services rendered, I would appreciate someone cleaning them up.

Poor communication from payment to install. Had great difficulty with getting contract copy, and financing link. Tried calling customer service for over an hour and no one had answers. When follow up call came in, customer service was rude claiming it wasn?t a problem on their end.

Felt like it was primarily to upsell for a new ac and not even sure if maintenance happened. Didn?t seem like they had our best interest and just looking for a sale.

Every year, The Home Depot helps thousands of homeowners install solar power systems that will reduce the cost of their monthly electricity bills. Transitioning to solar power requires custom designers and experienced contractors who can work with you on the installation of your solar panels from start to finish.
You'll be guided through all phases of your solar energy project, including a free consultation, system design, purchase, local permitting, installation, and ongoing monitoring and maintenance. Our expert designers and solar panel installers will save you time and make the addition of solar power easy with a quick install. The team will even take care of all the installation-related paperwork with your local permit office, as well as meet with city and utility inspectors to ensure your solar power system is approved and ready for activation.
Solar power systems help convert sunlight into electricity. This would not be possible without the use of solar panels. Panels collect sunlight using photovoltaic cells and transfer the generated electrical current through wiring to produce electricity. Solar panels also can be wired together to create a system, increasing the amount of solar energy collected and solar power produced. Regardless of the type of solar panel used, the most ideal setup for a solar power system is installing solar panels on a roof — in a region with long peak sunlight hours — with the panels facing south (for homes in the Northern Hemisphere).
Investing in a solar power system is easier today than ever before. The power system and number of solar panels are customized to your home and its needs. During your free in-home consultation, The Home Depot’s local solar power installer will clearly explain the installation process and how easy it is for you to go solar. By powering your home with clean, renewable solar energy, you’re creating a healthier environment and conserving natural resources. Lowering the cost of your electricity bills, having solar panels installed that require little-to-no maintenance for decades, and investing in renewable power are some of the best advantages of adding a solar power system to your home.
Solar power systems offer every homeowner a clean, renewable energy source that produces no carbon emissions. The result? Cleaner air, water and food for everyone. Having professional designers and experts install solar panels on your home is a great first step to reducing your carbon footprint.
