Indicative 2026 pricing: a typical 6.6kW system often quotes around $5,000–$8,000 after the STC discount (metro installs often $5,000–$7,500; premium/regional can run higher). See our solar cost guide.
Free for homeowners. Participating installers pay MrSolar a lead fee when matched — that does not buy a higher ranking in our guides or reviews. See how we match quotes and is MrSolar legit?
Bill outcomes follow usable capacity. Demand usable figures on the quote.
Confirm which circuits are backed up and whether changeover is automatic.
Eligible batteries may receive ~$372/kWh usable under the federal program since 1 July 2025 (~$3,720 off a typical 10 kWh usable system).
Ask for chemistry, warranty throughput, monitoring app quality and VPP compatibility if relevant.
