1. On-Site Consultation and Evaluation

We start by scheduling an on-site consultation and evaluation. During this initial visit, we determine your roof’s condition and size.

We also examine your home’s electrical panel, its wiring configuration and its capacity.

Our solar consultant develops a panel installation plan tailored to your property. We discuss your options, answer your questions and present our job proposal for your approval.

2. Obtaining Permits and Procuring Components

Once we have your go-ahead, our in-house design team develops all required permit drawings for submission to the Morgan Hill Development Services Department.

We also begin procuring the components for your project, including solar panels, racking materials and inverters.

3. Professional Solar Panel Installation

When we receive the City’s permit approval, we work with your timetable to schedule the solar energy system installation. The work typically takes several days from start to finish and includes:

  • Roof preparation and wiring configuration

  • Solar panel racking system construction

  • Solar panel attachment to support racking

  • Inverter connection to solar panel array

  • Commissioning your system for remote monitoring

4. Final Approval and Permission to Operate 

With the solar panel installation work finished, we contact the City and arrange a final on-site inspection. 

The wait typically takes from two weeks to a month for a final inspection. As soon as we receive the City’s final inspection approval, we send that along to PG&E for their final certification, called “Permission to Operate”, so our team can activate your solar panel system.

You immediately begin to enjoy increased grid independence and lower electric bills. 

You also have the peace of mind that comes from powering your home with clean, sustainable solar energy.

  • Sandbar Solar installed panels for us 8 years ago and did such a good job that we hired them again this fall to double our panel number. They provided excellent service and quality both times.

    - Donna Thomas

  • Everyone was very nice and they did an excellent job on installing the solar panels! Jarrett was very personable! I can already see a difference in my electric bill big time! I would definitely recommend Sandbar Solar to anybody that is needing or wanting solar panels!!

    - Annie Oakley

  • So glad we decided to go with Sandbar! The team is knowledgeable, efficient, and personable. Their equipment is top of the line. We couldn't be happier with our new solar system, thank you!

    - Jessamyn Tardif

  • I'm an architect and used them for my home. They were professional, communicative, and friendly. The panels work great and we will use them again on our ADU!

    - Orrin Goldsby

  • They were supportive, responsive, and highly knowledgeable through the entire process. BONUS: I got to use a local company and not get lost in the fog of Tesla or any of the other national firms.

    - Darren Cook

  • The system Sandbar installed has been up and running for about 8 months. To say that I am pleased with the resulting power bill from our utility company would be an understatement – from $600 to $50. The system is dramatically out performing my expectations. I checked the Solar Edge monitoring system frequently and get a sense of contentment each time.
