How do I get started?

1. Contact us, call 614-805-5776, or email: info@ecohouseohio.com  

2. A Solar Site Assessment is usually required to measure the amount of sun and shade at your location, gather information about the site, and determine the system that is best for you. Once Ecohouse has this information we will propose a system to meet your needs, and go over all relevant incentives, including federal tax credits, applicable grants, and sales of SRECs (Solar Renewable Energy Credits) that will lower the cost.

3. Ecohouse will design a system that is right for you depending upon your available space, energy production goals and budget. We use highly experienced electrical and plumbing professionals, who are NABCEP certified, and who are properly insured and bonded. We make sure your installation meets all code and safety requirements and will perform safely and optimally for years to come.
