Local Solar Installations

In Tacoma, Seattle and the Puget Sound, we can produce a tremendous amount of energy using solar power. Photovoltaic solar modules can turn this energy into electricity to use in your home or business. Solar power produces electricity without producing green house gases. Solar power allows you to make your own electricity and therefore become more energy self-sufficient. It also cuts our dependence on imported energy and fossil fuel produced energy.

Most people install solar power for personal and environmental reasons, not because they can make money from it. The money you spend on solar will be returned to you over the lifetime of the solar panels. Many people view purchasing a solar power system as a way to buy clean power in advance and to lock in the cost. There are no price hikes later and no need to buy fuel to keep it going. A solar system is the only "appliance" you can purchase that will actually pay itself back. Other appliances consume power, not produce it.

Full Service Installations

As a licensed electrical contractor Sun's Eye Power Company installs complete solar electric systems on homes and businesses. Our experience in designing code compliant photovoltaic systems for grid tied or stand alone applications means that you will get a hassle free, safe, reliable solar power plant.

The solar modules we used come with a 25 year warranty and the inverters we use are UL listed for interacting with the electric utility's grid power so that you are assured of getting a quality system that will last for years.

We are one of the few renewable energy firms to be certified by the North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners (NABCEP) in best practices for photovoltaic installations.

We are committed to bringing clean energy to you in a professional manner.

Our Services

Site Assessment: We will come to your site and determine the amount of solar energy available and the best location for installing solar panels for your particular situation. We determine the viability of your electrical system and how best to connect your solar production to the grid for maximum cost benefits to you.

Design/Estimates: We design a system that fits your energy needs, your budget and meets both the electrical code and the utility's requirements. If you plan to live off the grid we can design a system that will meet all your electrical needs with enough storage of energy in batteries to be able to live a normal life. We provide you with a clear budget and estimates of the costs involved so that there are no hidden surprises later. Often we will present several options to choose from that address your energy needs and your budget. We also do a cost/benefit analysis to find out the economic return on your investment.

Install: We have skilled people to install your system in a clean professional manner. We use only UL listed components and licensed installers. We provide the electrical permits and work with the inspectors and utility to ensure a smooth installation.

Incentives: The State and Federal governments, as well as some utilities, have instituted programs to promote the use of renewable energy by providing tax breaks and other financial incentives to people who install solar power. In Washington state, where we are located, this means you pay no sales tax and are eligible for a 30% federal tax break for solar installs. Utilities have a "net metering" program that allows you to "sell" the power you make back to them for the same rate that you purchase it. We will help you complete the necessary paper work for these programs and make sure we install a system that is eligible to receive these incentive.
