Clear Communication & Dedicated Project Management

From your first consultation through final inspection, a dedicated project manager coordinates site visits, permitting updates, and inspection schedules. You always know:

• What step your solar installation is in
• Who to contact with questions
• What to expect before the next visit

Our Professional Solar Installation Process

1. Site Visit & Energy Consultation

We start with a detailed, on-site evaluation that looks at:

• Roof condition, pitch, and orientation
• Shading from nearby trees, chimneys, and neighboring homes
• Existing electrical service, subpanels, and major appliances
• Your recent utility bills and projected energy usage

Using this data, we model system size, estimated production, and potential bill reduction, then walk you through options that fit your budget and long-term goals.

2. System Design & Proposal

Our design team creates a custom layout based on your roof map, including:

• Panel placement and string configuration
• Conduit routes that minimize visibility
• Inverter or microinverter selection
• Battery-ready infrastructure if you’re considering storage later

You receive a clear, itemized proposal outlining equipment, labor, projected output, and anticipated incentives or tax credits (subject to your eligibility and current programs).

3. Permitting & Utility Coordination

Infinium Solar Roofing and Electric manages all necessary paperwork with local building authorities and the utility, including:

• Structural and electrical plans
• Building and electrical permits
• Utility interconnection applications

We coordinate required inspections so your solar installation progresses without you having to track forms, deadlines, or submission portals.

4. Roof Preparation & Mounting Hardware

Before panels go up, our roofing and solar teams confirm that your roof is ready to support the system. When needed, we can:

• Replace compromised sheathing
• Address localized roof repairs in the array footprint
• Install code-compliant mounting hardware with flashing at each penetration

This integrated approach helps protect your roof from moisture intrusion and unnecessary wear over time.

5. Panel, Inverter, & Electrical Installation

Next, our licensed electricians and solar technicians:

• Mount panels according to the engineered layout
• Install inverters, disconnects, meters, and monitoring hardware
• Upgrade service panels when required to meet today’s electrical demands
• Complete all wiring and labeling to meet National Electrical Code and local standards

6. Inspection, Commissioning, & Monitoring

Once installation is complete, we:

• Coordinate building and utility inspections
• Complete final commissioning so your system begins producing power
• Set up monitoring access, so you can view real-time and historical production data

You will receive documentation for your records, including product warranties and system specifications.

Solar Installation Designed for Tri-Valley Conditions

Climate-Responsive System Design

Summers in the Tri-Valley region bring extended periods of intense sun and high temperatures, while winter storms add wind and rain. Our designs account for:

• High-efficiency panels selected for strong performance in summer heat
• Racking and attachment methods rated for local wind exposure categories
• Electrical components placed to minimize heat stress and moisture exposure

Solar-Ready Roofs & Battery Integration

Because Infinium Solar Roofing and Electric also performs roofing and electrical work, we can design your solar installation to align with:

• Future battery storage
• EV charger additions
• Service panel upgrades for added capacity

Planning these elements up front reduces future disruption and helps you build toward greater energy independence over time.

Frequently Asked Questions About Solar Installation

Do I need a permit for solar installation on my home?

Yes. Residential solar installations require permits and inspections through the local building department. Infinium Solar Roofing and Electric handles the entire permitting process, including plan preparation, submission, and inspection scheduling, so your project stays compliant with current codes.

How long does a typical residential solar installation take?

Most home installations are completed within a few days of on-site work once permits are approved and materials are ready. Total project timelines vary based on utility review times, roof complexity, and any electrical or roofing upgrades included in your scope.

Will my roof need to be replaced before installing solar?

Not always. During the initial assessment, we evaluate your roof’s age, condition, and remaining useful life. If your roof is in good shape, we can proceed with installation. If it is nearing the end of its lifespan, we may recommend roof replacement or targeted roof repairs before mounting panels to help you avoid removing and reinstalling the system later.

Can I add battery storage now or in the future?

Yes. Many homeowners choose to install solar with battery-ready infrastructure, even if the battery is added later. Infinium Solar Roofing and Electric can design your system to accommodate future storage by planning for conduit, panel capacity, and equipment space from the beginning.

What kind of maintenance does a solar system need?

Solar systems generally require minimal upkeep. Periodic panel cleaning, wiring and connection inspections, along with occasional equipment checks, are typically sufficient. During your project, we explain recommended maintenance intervals and options for ongoing support.
