Compton – Solar Installation & Cool Roof

Location: Compton, CA

Year: 2025

System: Owens Corning COOL Roof, 7.2 kW Maxeon Solar System

Homeowner Story:

This home in Compton was originally the mayor’s residence many years ago, but time had taken a toll. When we first met the homeowner, the house felt dark and unusually cold. She relied on multiple space heaters just to get through the day, yet her Edison bills were still painfully high.

The combination of an aging roof, poor insulation, and rising energy rates made the home uncomfortable and expensive to live in. She wanted a solution that would finally bring warmth, light, and stability — without worrying about every hour of electricity she used.

Her goal was simple but life-changing: create a safe, warm, efficient home where she could live comfortably without the fear of unpredictable utility bills.

UV Roofing Solution:

We began with a full Owens Corning COOL Roof installation to dramatically improve insulation, reduce heat loss, and balance interior temperatures year-round. This immediately made the home feel less drafty and more stable.

Then we installed a 7.2 kW Maxeon solar system, engineered to eliminate her dependency on Edison and offset her full energy usage. Maxeon’s high-efficiency panels were essential here — they deliver strong output even on older structures where every kilowatt matters.

The combination of a COOL Roof and Maxeon solar created a complete comfort and energy transformation built for long-term reliability and independence.

Result

Her electric bill dropped to zero. She can now heat the home, run lights throughout the house, and use appliances freely without watching the meter. The interior feels brighter, warmer, and far more livable than before.

What used to be a cold, dark, high-cost home is now a comfortable, energy- independent space with predictable expenses and long-term value. A true transformation that brings comfort, stability, and confidence every single day.

We install Maxeon solar panels, Enphase IQ8 microinverters, Tesla Powerwall 3, and Franklin A Power 2. These systems deliver strong performance, high efficiency, and reliable backup power during outages.

Yes. A battery can power essential circuits such as lighting, WiFi, refrigeration, home office equipment, and medical devices. Full home backup is also available. We design the system based on your comfort needs and lifestyle.

Savings depend on shading, roof orientation, and energy use. Many homeowners see meaningful reductions and long-term protection against rising utility rates, especially with Maxeon and Enphase systems.

Roof replacement and solar installation each take only a few days. The full timeline depends on your city and utility approvals.
