Best Buy Solar only uses solar panels that have been manufactured with solar cells that have been cut from solid ingots of silicon !

When shopping for solar panels, always insist on solar panels that use solar cells that have been cut from a solid silicon ingot.
Many of the solar panels that are on the market that use silicon that is not cut from solid silicon ingots may offer lower efficiencies, poorer tolerances or lesser warranties !

No thin film, ribbons, bows or strings attached !


High Efficiency And A Better Peak Tolerance Rating !

Unlike many of our competitor's solar panels that offer high efficiency but a relatively poorer peak tolerance rating, or a good peak tolerance rating but relatively poorer efficiency, Mitsubishi's top of the line solar panels offer you both high efficiency and a better peak tolerance rating !

And they do it with using any toxic lead !

WEIGHT MATTERS !

Solar Home only uses heavy duty inverters with with copper wound output transformers for high efficiency and unbeatable durability and performance !

Copper is expensive but its time tested performance in inverters is undeniable !

Before making a buying decision, better ask how much the other dealer's inverter weighs, then ask to see the inverter's specification sheet to be sure.

Many lower cost inverters do not use a copper wound output transformer !


Top Of The Line Components !

In an effort to be competitive, many of our competitors have resorted to offering thin light duty mounting rails that require many more roof penetrations, lightweight inverters with no output transformer, or inverters that are manufactured in third world countries, and solar panels with poorer PTC ratings and or poorer tolerance ratings.
 
Here at Best Buy Solar we never skimp on quality. Every system that we sell includes only the very best heavy duty components available on today's market !
 
And that's not just talk! In a side by side comparison we'll prove why our name brand top of the line equipment outperforms the competition hands down at a price that can't be beat!

With the cost of gasoline, natural gas and electricity going through the roof !, it is now time to start thinking about your energy budget as a whole.

Unfortunately you can't make your own gasoline or natural gas, but now you CAN make your own electricity, thus reducing your overall energy budget.  And the best part about it is that the fuel to make your own electricity falls from the sky everyday for free !

Thousands of utility customers throughout the U.S., who were tired of the high cost of electricity have taken advantage of the huge rebates and tax credits which are available for the installation of solar energy systems on their homes and businesses.

For example, Silicon Valley Power's solar rebate program is currently offering a cash rebate of  up to $4,500.00 per AC Watt up to $45,000.00 (10 kW) for the installation of a solar system. Commercial SVP customers are eligible for a rebate of $3,000.00 per watt AC kilowatt for systems up to 100 kW.

 There's also a 30% Federal tax credit ($2,000.00 for residential and no cap for commercial). And unlike the old solar systems of yesteryear that produced hot water, these new systems actually generate electricity ! Clean reliable electricity to run lights, TVs, air conditioning, pumps, refrigerators, computers and many other appliances, all with free energy from the Sun !

The staff here at Best Buy Solar are experts in the design and implementation of systems that qualify for many State rebate programs. We offer free assistance in the design of your system and can even assist you with the submission of your application to SVP !

Depending on the size system you choose and the number of loads you have running during the day, it is actually possible watch the power company's meter run backwards ! 

Ask any alternative energy engineer, installer or dealer and they'll all tell you the same thing. "The PV Powered PVP-5200 grid intertie inverter is one of the highest efficiency inverters available on today's market!" We've taken PVP-5200's unbeatable quality, reliability and efficiency a step further by adding the very finest made solar panels available.

Utilizing the latest state of the art patented process for manufacturing multi-crystalline silicon, Mitsubishi has achieved real world efficiencies that were once thought to be impossible ! And unlike other manufacturers they did it without using toxic lead in their panels ! Since 1974 Mitsubishi Electric Solar is one of the oldest and
most trusted names in the industry !

Because Mitsubishi Electric cares about the environment they use absolutely no toxic lead in the manufacture of their solar panels. Instead they use silver electrodes which not only protects our precious environment but also enhances efficiency which is why Mitsubishi solar panels outperforms many of their competitors and gives you a bigger rebate at a better price per watt. A typical conventional 3 kW solar array uses up to  864,000 milligrams of lead ! A Mitsubishi 3 kW array uses Zero lead !

Next we add one of the finest mounting rack systems available today. The UniRac SolarMount system is unsurpassed in quality and durability, rated to withstand 120 miles per hour wind speeds, UniRac SolarMounts are engineered to last a lifetime.

Increase Your Home's Resale Value !

Please Note: In reference to the following study which was performed by ICF consulting concerning the increase of a homes value following the installation of a solar electric system, we want to make it clear that we are not in the business of appraising property values, we are experts in the business of solar, not real estate. We are presenting the ICF study findings to you for informational purposes only. The decision to include these finding when calculating the return on investment or payback time is solely up to the consumer. The increase in your property's value may vary significantly from the below example, so we suggest that you consult a licensed appraiser to determine what increase if any, your home may subject to following the installation of a solar electric system.

A study by ICF Consulting which was funded by the Housing and Urban Development Department and the EPA concluded that energy saving measures such as solar can add $20.00 of home value for every $1.00 in yearly energy cost savings, at a cost of 15 cents per kilowatt hour, this system's energy savings could amount to a $65,796.12**** increase in your homes value, not to mention the reduction or even elimination of your monthly electric bill !***

Depending on the amount of your cash rebate, Federal tax credit and the increase in your home's value, it's possible for this system to pay for itself and then some, the very day you turn it on !

Click here to view a reprint of ICF Consulting's report titled : Evidence Of Rational Market Valuations For Home Energy Efficiency. Where the $20.00 increase for every $1.00 in yearly energy costs savings is explained.

The Fusion Max Max Grid Intertie system is perfect for reducing your monthly electric bill. No batteries are needed because this system utilizes a grid intertie power conditioning unit ! You'll actually become a mini power company selling power back to your utility company while the sun is shining. If your power production exceeds your power consumption, depending on the type of meter you have you will be able to actually watch your meter run backwards, what a sight !

*Peak sunshine is defined as sunshine which is available during clear sky conditions between the hours of 9 AM and 3 PM. Your system's performance may vary depending on factors such as, geographic location, the angle at which your solar panels are tilted, time of year, degree of annual cloud cover, pollutants in the air, dirt and guano (bird droppings) build up on the solar modules, time of day, obstacles to sunlight such as trees and buildings, and the direction that the solar modules are pointed at.

**(Your rebate amount may vary depending on expected system performance and will be calculated based on equipment ratings and installation factors, such as geographic location, tilt, and shading.)

***The estimated increase in home value indicated above was derived from ICF Consulting's recent study which indicated a $20 increase per $1 savings in annual electric bills and used a per kilowatt hour cost of 15 cents. Your home value increase results may vary significantly from this example. To determine the actual amount that your home might appreciate after installing this solar electric system, please consult a licensed appraiser. Information concerning ICF's findings is being presented for informational purposes only. Solatron Technologies Inc. is not in the business of accessing home values and hereby makes no claim whatsoever regarding the accuracy or validity of the ICF report.

****The $65,796.12 estimate was calculated at a 15 cent per kilowatt hour rate and 6 hours of peak sunshine per day. Please consult an appraiser to determine your home's actual increase in value.
