They actually communicated without any pressure. Even though I did not purchase anything. I'm a senior, im afraid of scamers. I didn't feel this with these guys.

Written by the company
Solar-Estimate.org exists to provide an easy-to-use ballpark solar estimator so that homeowners can get a rough idea of the solar potential of their home before deciding if they want to talk to a solar company.Our calculator automatically places panels on your roof and adjusts the production estimate to the tilt angle, azimuth and shading of the best location for each array of panels on your roof. At the time of writing (December 2019) no other consumer website can do this. The only other place such accurate functionality is available is in professional solar design software used by solar companies. Our solar calculator also uses EIA and Genability electric use profiling for each region of the United States to estimate what your electricity use pattern looks like over the course of a day and over the seasons of the year. It then maps that hour by hour over the generation pattern from the proposed solar array. As such it is the only free online solar panel calculator that properly accounts for the effects of time of use billing on solar savings. Most online solar panel calculators just estimate annual usage and production, ignore this complexity and give inaccurate results. This last point is particularly important in California where all residential customers are now on time of use electric billing, making the times of the day you use power and the times of day you generate power critical to your solar savings analysis.

solar cost estimate without vendors
I wanted to get an approximate idea of what solar would cost without involving individual vendors. While I got the information I wanted, I have had to deal with multiple phone calls, emails, and text messages from solar companies.

HOA looking for Solar solution to reduce electric bills
My HOA was looking for Solar solution for running our pool equipment so as to reduce electric costs. I reviewed the web and came upon Solar-Estimate.org, entered appropriate information on their site. Within 30 minutes I had received calls from two prospective companies and set up times for each to come for an onsite visit. Web search to two visits 3 days. Very responsive, and excellent in keeping me updated.

Responses were prompt. Some were more assertive than I prefer, given that I am only fact finding.
