1. Review the address and usage
A real proposal starts with the property, roof, utility usage, electrical service, and homeowner goals. If those details are thin, the proposal will be thin too.
Project process
The solar installation process for Rockford homeowners
The best solar projects feel organized before anybody gets on the roof.
Braven field note
This note walks through the real steps in the install process.
Braven is keeping the useful parts and removing the filler. The goal is to help homeowners understand the process before they start.
2. Design and proposal
The design should explain equipment, expected layout, assumptions, exclusions, and what still needs verification. It should not rely on pressure or unsupported savings claims.
3. Permits and utility steps
Solar projects often wait on paperwork: permits, utility applications, interconnection, and incentive documentation. Customers should know which step they are in and what is still open.
4. Install, inspection, and activation
Installation is only one piece. Inspection, utility approval, monitoring setup, and final customer handoff are what turn panels on the roof into a working system.
