How to avoid bad solar deals in Texas
The Rio Grande Valley is a hotspot for door-to-door solar sales — and unfortunately, a hotspot for misleading contracts. We wrote this section to protect homeowners, even if you never call us. If a company refuses to give you the answers below in writing, that is your signal to walk away.
Our promise: If you bring us another quote, we will tell you honestly whether it is fair — even if the answer is "their deal is better than ours." That is what local accountability looks like.
1
Inflated production estimates
If a salesperson promises 100% bill offset without analyzing 12 months of your AEP Texas usage, walk away. Real designs are based on real data.
2
25-year leases with hidden escalators
Many national companies push leases that raise your payment 2.9% every year for 25 years. Read the escalator clause — or better, just own your system.
3
Out-of-state install crews
If the sales office is in Texas but the install crew flies in, you have no one to call in year three when something goes wrong. Local matters.
4
Vague 'monthly payment' pitches
Always demand the full cash price, the interest rate, the loan term, and the total amount financed. If those numbers are hard to get, that is the answer.
5
Skipped permits or inspections
Every legitimate install in McAllen, Mission, Edinburg and the RGV needs a city permit and an AEP Texas interconnection agreement. No shortcuts.

Common Questions
Solar in the Rio Grande Valley — answered honestly
Straight answers to the questions McAllen, Mission, and Edinburg homeowners actually ask before going solar.
More common solar questions
Most residential systems in McAllen and the RGV run between $15,000 and $30,000 before incentives, depending on system size and your 12-month AEP Texas usage. With the federal tax credit and $0-down financing, many homeowners replace their electric bill with a similar or lower monthly payment. We always quote from your real usage data, never estimates.
Yes — the RGV gets some of the strongest sun in Texas, and AEP rates have climbed steadily since 2022. A properly sized system typically offsets 80–100% of usage. The key is honest design based on your actual bills, which is exactly what we show you before you sign anything.
Tier 1 panels carry 25-year production warranties and typically keep producing beyond 30 years. Heat and coastal humidity in the Valley are exactly why we install marine-grade racking near the coast and equipment rated for South Texas conditions.
Yes. We're a certified Tesla Powerwall installer and also design whole-home and partial-home battery backup so your AC, refrigerator and lights stay on during AEP Texas outages.
Solar alone shuts off during an outage for utility-worker safety. With a battery like the Tesla Powerwall, your home switches to backup power automatically — usually so fast you won't notice.
Yes. Texas law (Property Code 202.010) prevents HOAs from banning solar panels, though they can require reasonable placement guidelines. We handle the HOA paperwork for you as part of every install.
We offer $0-down solar loans through reputable U.S. lenders, plus straightforward cash pricing. We don't push 25-year leases with hidden escalators — you'll see the full cash price, rate, term and total financed before you decide.
Not when installed correctly. Every penetration is flashed and sealed, and our workmanship warranty covers the roof work. If your roof is near end-of-life, our Roofing + Solar service replaces the roof and installs solar in one coordinated project so you never pay twice for panel removal.
The rooftop install itself usually takes 1–2 days. The full process — design, permit, install, inspection and AEP Texas interconnection — typically runs 4–8 weeks, and we handle every step.
Yes, 100%. Every legitimate install in the RGV needs a city permit and an AEP Texas interconnection agreement. We manage both from start to finish — no shortcuts.
In most cases, yes. Powerwall 3 can pair with many existing systems, and we also service and re-commission systems installed by other companies. We'll evaluate your current setup for free.
Yes — warehouses, dealerships, ag operations and small businesses across South Texas, including MACRS accelerated depreciation guidance for qualifying businesses.
