Solar proposals are difficult to compare because sales presentations mix equipment, estimated savings, incentives, financing, and warranties. Normalize every offer before deciding. Tower’s calculator gives you an independent preliminary benchmark without requiring a phone number.
Estimate my homeRecord DC system size in kW, panel count and wattage, cash price, battery price, and excluded work. Divide the solar-only cash price by DC watts for a basic price-per-watt comparison. Do not compare one cash offer with another financed offer.
Write down the financed amount, APR, term, monthly payment, dealer or origination fees, prepayment terms, and total scheduled payments. Ask for the cash price of the identical system. A low promotional APR may be paired with a higher financed principal.
Compare estimated first-year kWh, not only percentage offset. Ask what weather dataset, shade measurement, orientation, losses, and degradation were used. Verify that the utility usage in the model matches your bills.
Identify the legal seller, installer, electrician, lender, equipment manufacturers, monitoring provider, and warranty administrator. Read cancellation, roof, lien, transfer, arbitration, and change-order terms before signing.

No. Roof work, electrical upgrades, equipment, workmanship, production quality, service, and contract terms matter. Price per watt is one normalization tool.
No. Ownership, tax treatment, escalators, buyout terms, transfer obligations, and lifetime cost differ. Compare each contract structure separately.
The calculator does not automatically create a lead. You may voluntarily submit the review form on this page with a proposal or project summary.
