Terms of Service
These Terms of Service govern your use of AskTheSolarExperts.com, including its educational content, provider directory, provider profiles and paid provider-participation services.
Acceptance of These Terms
By accessing or using AskTheSolarExperts.com, you agree to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy.
If you do not agree with these terms, you should not use the website or its services.
Purpose of AskTheSolarExperts.com
AskTheSolarExperts.com is an independent informational and solar-provider research website designed to help homeowners learn about solar-related considerations and discover participating solar companies that may serve their area.
AskTheSolarExperts.com is not a solar contractor, roofing contractor, utility company, lender, equipment manufacturer, engineering firm or home-improvement contractor.
We do not design, sell, finance, install, inspect, repair or warrant solar systems.
Educational Information Only
Information available on AskTheSolarExperts.com is provided for general educational and informational purposes.
Solar recommendations can depend on a homeowner's property, roof condition, electrical system, energy usage, utility rules, financing, equipment, location and many other individual factors.
Website content should not be considered engineering, legal, financial, tax, lending, roofing, electrical or professional solar-installation advice.
Solar Provider Directory
AskTheSolarExperts.com may display profiles of participating solar providers and make those profiles available through ZIP-code, service-area or other directory searches.
Provider placement does not constitute a guarantee, certification or endorsement of a provider's services, workmanship, pricing, availability or suitability for any particular project.
Homeowners are responsible for independently evaluating providers and verifying information they consider important before entering into any agreement.
Provider Profile Information
Provider profiles may contain information supplied by participating companies or gathered from company websites, public business sources, publicly available reputation information or other legitimate sources.
We attempt to present useful information, but we do not guarantee that every profile detail will always be complete, current or error-free.
Authorized representatives of solar companies may request corrections, service-area updates, profile review or removal through the Provider Information process.
Ratings, Reviews and Reputation Information
Provider profiles may reference publicly visible ratings, review counts, customer feedback or other reputation information.
Ratings and review totals can change over time. AskTheSolarExperts.com does not control third-party review platforms and does not guarantee the continued accuracy of information originating from those sources.
Homeowner Responsibility
Before selecting a solar provider, homeowners should perform their own due diligence and verify matters relevant to their particular project.
Depending on the project and location, this may include reviewing:
- Applicable licensing and registration.
- Insurance coverage.
- Company experience and references.
- Equipment and system specifications.
- Roofing and structural considerations.
- Installation and workmanship warranties.
- Manufacturer warranties.
- Financing or lease terms.
- Utility requirements and interconnection.
- Written contracts and cancellation provisions.
Direct Contact With Providers
AskTheSolarExperts.com may provide links, telephone numbers or other methods for contacting a participating solar provider.
When a homeowner contacts a provider, visits a provider website, requests information or enters into a contract, that relationship is directly between the homeowner and the provider.
AskTheSolarExperts.com is not a party to agreements between homeowners and solar companies.
Provider Participation
Solar companies may be offered paid participation, provider-profile development, service-area placement or other directory-related services.
Participation does not guarantee any particular number of website visitors, profile views, inquiries, telephone calls, leads, customers, contracts, sales, search-engine rankings or revenue.
AskTheSolarExperts.com may manage directory participation and provider availability by market, ZIP code, service area and profile-development capacity.
Custom Provider Profile Materials
Certain participating providers may receive a custom profile presentation or other provider-specific material displayed as part of their AskTheSolarExperts.com profile.
These materials may incorporate provider-supplied information, publicly available business information, reputation information and other documented company details.
AskTheSolarExperts.com may update or revise profile content when appropriate to correct information, reflect service-area changes, improve presentation or maintain directory consistency.
Payments and Paid Services
Fees for provider participation, profile development or other paid services will be presented before purchase or through the applicable checkout process.
Payment processing may be handled by an independent third-party payment processor.
Any specific payment, renewal, cancellation or refund terms shown at checkout or otherwise agreed to as part of a particular purchase are incorporated into these Terms of Service.
No Guarantee of Results
AskTheSolarExperts.com does not guarantee that a provider profile, directory placement, website listing or other service will produce leads, customers, sales, contracts, revenue, search-engine placement or any other particular business result.
Search-engine visibility, consumer demand, competition and market conditions can change and are outside our control.
