At Parker & Sons, we believe in a brighter, greener, and more sustainable future. Switching to residential solar isn't just a smart financial move – it's a step towards preserving our beautiful Arizona landscapes for generations to come. Dive into the world of solar with us, where sustainability meets incredible energy savings and a notable environmental impact.
More Than Just Savings!
Your solar panels can do more than lower bills – they can turn a profit! Imagine your solar system feeding energy back to the grid, shrinking costs, and even earning you credits. It's smart, it's eco-friendly, and it's a great conversation starter at your next barbecue!
In 2023, Arizona witnessed a remarkable surge in solar capacity, with 6,457 megawatts installed and securing the 5th position nationally.
Projections for 2028 place the state at 4th, with an estimated 10,651 megawatts.
Solar energy now contributes 10.16% of Arizona’s electricity, illuminating around 1,031,199 homes.
2023 saw a significant $1.6 billion investment, elevating Arizona's solar market value to $17.3 billion.
The industry's impact on employment is noteworthy, supporting 8,337 jobs.
The past decade has seen a 42% reduction in solar installation costs, enhancing affordability for residents over time.
Panels. Photovoltaic (PV) solar panels use semiconductor materials to absorb energy from sunlight and convert it into direct current (DC) electricity. Today’s solar panels are lighter, lower cost and produce more energy than prior generation solar panels.
Inverter. An inverter converts DC electricity from solar panels or battery storage into alternating current (AC) electricity that can be used in your home or sold back to the power grid. Depending on your system design, either microinverters (one per panel) or a sting inverter (one per system) will be included.
Battery. Batteries store DC electricity from solar panels or converted AC electricity from the grid. Batteries can help power your home at night when the sun is not shining.
Meter. Your utility meter will know when you are consuming power from the grid, or when your solar system is providing excess power back to the grid. The utility buys this excess power from you in what is called “net metering”.
Stability. Parker & Sons has been serving Arizona homeowners for over 50 years. You can have confidence that we will be here to support you and the warranty behind your solar system for decades to come.
Performance. Your solar system is a big investment. We provide the tools to help you monitor the performance of your solar system. In the unlikely event an issue emerges, you will know, and we will be there to help.
Service. Unlike most solar companies, we maintain an ongoing relationship with our customers. Just like we have done for years with our Parker Family Plan customers providing regular HVAC maintenance and tune-ups. We are Not Your Average (Solar) Joe!
Our Promise: Quality and Reliability. Our comprehensive warranty covers your solar system, ensuring peace of mind and a hassle-free experience. At Parker & Sons, support and service reliability aren't just promises; they're our commitment to you. Solar you can trust.
Efficiency First. Parker & Sons has a range of solutions to reduce the energy consumption of your home: high-efficiency HVAC systems, air sealing, insulation, etc.
Prepare Your Home. Our experts will evaluate your roof and recommend any improvements to ensure a worry-free solar installation for the life of the system. We will also analyze your home’s electrical system and include any necessary upgrades in your solar proposal.
Right-sized Solar. We optimize the size of your solar system based upon the unique energy requirements of your home, including any efficiency upgrades. Our design team will locate your panels to maximize energy from the sun.
Store It. Utilities like to sell power at a much higher price than they buy it back. Solve this by adding optional battery storage to your system and never pay peak rates again!
Use All You Produce. Your solar system will produce more energy than your home needs at certain times of the day. Instead of selling that power back to the utility, add battery storage to your system and “time shift” your solar power to be used in the evening after the sun goes down
Never Pay Peak Rates. With battery storage, your system can power your home in the late afternoon & evening when expensive peak utility rates are in effect. Never incur that cost again!
Electrification. With low-cost solar powering your home, transitioning your HVAC system, water heating, appliances, etc. to all electric will save you money. We can share details on tax credits and rebates that make this even more affordable for your family.
EV Charging. Do you own an EV or are you considering one? Why not power both your home and charge your EV with clean solar power? Visit the convenience store only for the snacks!
Grid Instability. We have all heard about rolling blackouts in California or multi-day weather-driven outages in other states. Will a cyber-attack impact the grid in the future? With the right solar system design, you can continue to power some or all your home when the grid goes down. Add battery storage and/or a generator and your home will have power day and night for as long as needed.
Off-Grid. Is your property remote, or do you wish to be rid of the utility company? With the right combination of solar, battery storage, and a generator, you can operate your home fully independent of the electric grid. Freedom!
Invest Don't Spend. You are spending money every month on your utility bill today. Why not redirect that money into an investment in your own roof-top power plant! According to a study conducted by Zillow, solar increases the appraised value of a home by 4.1%.
Utility Rates Only Increase. Utility rates are a one-way ticket...up. You will be paying more to power your home next year, and the next, and the next. Get off this runaway train and lock in your energy costs with your own solar system.
Let Uncle Sam Help. Federal tax credits cover 30% of the cost of your solar system, including storage and any needed electrical upgrades. We provide documentation to help you with the process.
Save Money Day One. For most customers, we can lower monthly electricity costs right out of the gate. As utility rates continue to rise, your costs will be locked in for the long term.
No Upfront Costs. We offer financing that allows you to get into solar with no money upfront. We are breaking down the barriers for homeowners who want solar bud did not think they could afford it.
