System: Maxeon Solar, 8.75 kW
Homeowner Story:
When I first met this family in La Crescenta, they had just bought their new home and were preparing to move in with their newborns. They were excited about the next chapter, but they also knew they were stepping into a house powered by Edison’s rising rates — something they wanted to get ahead of before settling in.
They shared that they planned to buy an EV as their second car, and they wanted the comfort of knowing they could charge it at home without worrying about unpredictable monthly bills. With a new home, a growing family, and a future EV in mind, they were looking for stability, savings, and a long-term plan that would protect them from rate increases.
UV Roofing Solution:
We designed a premium 8.75 kW Maxeon solar system that would give them control from day one.
Maxeon was the right choice for them — high efficiency, long-term reliability, and a clean design that aligned with the way they wanted their home to feel. The goal was simple: eliminate the electric bill, lock in predictable costs, and create a smart foundation before their family fully moved in. They also preferred a phased approach — starting with solar now and planning to add a battery when it makes the most sense for their home and usage.
Result
Today, their Edison bill is eliminated. They’ve locked their energy costs, enjoy predictable monthly expenses, and can charge their EV without thinking twice about the cost of electricity or fuel.
The next step they’re considering is adding a backup battery, especially as the La Crescenta area experiences more grid instability. With solar already in place, a battery would give them complete independence and peace of mind for their growing family.
What started as a concern about rising rates became a long-term plan for comfort, stability, and energy independence — all built into their new home from the very beginning.

Roof, solar, or full backup power, we guide you through every step personally so your home feels protected and powered the right way.
Yes. Many homeowners choose to upgrade the roof and install solar together because it prevents extra penetrations, avoids future leaks, and creates a clean, integrated system built to last. We install the solar racking while the roof is open for proper waterproofing and long-term performance.
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. We work with LADWP, Edison, PG&E, Pasadena Water and Power, Glendale Water and Power, and Burbank Water and Power. We handle all paperwork and keep you updated throughout the process.
