There are a lot of great reasons to get solar panels for your first home, but as a savvy new homeowner, you’re wondering how big the payoff is going to be. You can stop crunching the numbers—we’re here to do that for you.

See how you can turn solar power into big savings on time and money without you ever having to lift a finger (yes, it’s that easy):

1. Lower energy bills

Remember when you got your first electric bill for your new home?? Yeah, yikes. Going solar can help you save big on your energy bills. Home solar plans and services like Sunrun’s BrightSave® guarantee savings and performance*, so that you don’t have to give your electric bills a second thought. And if you’re wondering how expensive solar panels are for your home, our BrightSave Monthly plan starts for little to $0 upfront. So all you have to do is pay for the power, not the panels.

2. 24/7 maintenance

You know better than anyone that it takes a lot to keep your home in working order. With BrightSave, electricity is one less thing you have to worry about. We’ll be monitoring your solar panels 24/7 to make sure they’re in top shape. And if they’re not? We’ll send someone to your home to get it repaired.

3. Solar System Transfer Guarantee

Now you’re thinking, that all sounds great, but what if I move? Well, don’t worry, we’ll handle that too. We know that chances are, you won’t be in your first home forever. That’s why we have a solar system transfer guarantee, to help you transfer your solar contract to the new owner. We’ll handle all the nitty gritty stuff for you, so all you have to do is figure out how you’re going to get the sofa out the door. You know all too well that a lot goes into owning a home. 

Thankfully, it doesn’t take much to go solar. See if we offer solar services near you and learn just how much you could be saving on your energy bills today with a free solar quote.

*Sunrun guarantees 100% of the guaranteed output during the initial term of the agreement for BrightSave Prepaid and 95% for BrightSave Monthly Lease. Please see https://www.sunrun.com/why-sunrun/your-guarantee for details.
