Monterey Park – Solar Installation & Cool Roof
Location: Monterey Park, CA
Year: 2024
System: Owens Corning COOL Roof, 8.075 kW Maxeon Solar System
Homeowner Story:
This was the second property owned by the same older couple who were upgrading their rental portfolio to be more energy-efficient and financially predictable. Each home had different needs, and this one consistently generated higher utility bills for their tenants. As Edison rates continued to rise, the couple wanted to eliminate that expense entirely and protect the long-term ROI of the property.
Their goal was to lock in their energy costs, improve comfort inside the home, and create a more modern, efficient rental without increasing rent or affecting tenant quality of life.
UV Roofing Solution:
We installed a complete Owens Corning COOL Roof system to increase efficiency, reduce heat absorption, and bring the property up to modern standards. With the roof upgraded, we added a high-performance 6.3 kW Maxeon solar system designed to offset the property's full electrical usage and eliminate dependency on Edison.
The combination of a COOL Roof and Maxeon panels ensures long-term durability, stronger energy production, and minimal maintenance — perfect for a rental property where reliability is essential.
Result
The property now generates its own clean energy every day. The homeowners no longer pay a utility bill to Edison, and their tenants enjoy full electricity usage with lower interior heat during summer months.
What was once a home with unpredictable energy costs is now a stable, efficient, and future-ready rental offering stronger ROI and long-term value.

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.
