Fill in what each quote shows. Leave blanks if a quote doesn't say; a missing number is often a red flag itself. Everything stays in your browser.
What we check
- True price per watt, battery excluded, compared with a fair local cash price.
- Lifetime cost per kWh, so cash, loans, leases and PPAs are compared on the same footing.
- Hidden dealer fees and the real interest rate once the fee is counted.
- Production claims against PVWatts for your location. Inflated estimates make every other number look better.
- Warranties and paperwork: workmanship coverage, specific equipment models, deposits, deadlines and license numbers.

Questions
How do I compare solar quotes fairly?
Convert each quote to price per watt (total price before incentives divided by system watts) and to cost per kWh over the system's life. Check that production estimates are realistic for your roof, that the panels and inverter are named by model, and that warranties include at least 10 years of workmanship coverage.
What is a good price per watt for solar in 2026?
Cash prices around $2.50 to $3.50 per watt before incentives are typical in most states. Loan-financed prices often run higher because of dealer fees. Your state's typical price appears when you enter your ZIP code.
Can a quote still include the 30% tax credit?
Not for a system you buy and install in 2026. The residential credit ended for installations completed after December 31, 2025. Leases and PPAs can still use a business credit, but the provider keeps it.
Is my information shared with installers?
