20 AGO 2026 · In this episode of Rooftop Solar Decoded, host Jude explains why collecting multiple installer proposals often leaves homeowners confused about which system truly fits their needs. The key is matching every quote to your actual twelve months of electric bills instead of relying on price-per-watt figures or brand names that rest on mismatched assumptions. With net metering rules tightening in many states, an oversized array can leave you buying power at full retail while exporting excess at little or no credit.
Jude walks through practical steps: request monthly kilowatt-hour production estimates, compare them directly to your highest and lowest usage months, and run both loan and cash-purchase scenarios after incentives to reveal real break-even points. He also highlights the importance of true-up clauses and seasonal production breakdowns that expose hidden risks.
Key takeaways:
- Gather your full year of utility statements before reviewing any quote
- Demand month-by-month production data instead of annual averages
- Test each proposal against changing net metering policies
- Compare loan payments versus cash savings over at least ten years
- Verify whether the installer offers adjustments if output falls short

10 LUG 2026 · In this episode of Rooftop Solar Decoded, we break down the most common red flags hiding in US solar quotes. From oversized systems based on peak electric bills instead of yearly averages to shifting net metering and NEM rules that slash export credits, we cover how to evaluate real costs. You'll learn why cash purchases often beat loans once interest stacks up, plus how to counter limited-time incentives, unrealistic production estimates, and pressure tactics that push quick decisions.
Key takeaways:
- Add twelve months of bills and divide for your true average usage before comparing sizes
- Check NEM fine print for credit rate drops or wholesale pricing after specific years
- Calculate total paid under cash versus financed options including five to six percent interest
- Request the same quote priced without deadlines or at month-end to test urgency
- Adjust production numbers downward ten to fifteen percent for actual roof tilt and shading
These practical checks turn confusing proposals into clear choices based on your numbers, not sales assumptions.
