“We had an amazing experience working with Solphos for our solar battery backup installation. Trevor, Brian and their team went above and beyond, traveling a long distance to ensure everything was done perfectly. Their professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail were top-notch. The installation process was smooth, and they took the time to explain everything thoroughly. Now, we have a reliable backup system, and we couldn’t be happier! If you’re looking for high-quality solar services, this is the company to trust. Highly recommend!”

Homeowner FAQ
The questions we hear most, answered honestly.
Does solar actually work in Seattle’s cloudy climate?+
Yes, solar works on diffuse light, not just direct sunlight. In fact, Seattle averages 3.5–4.5 peak sun hours per day, and modern panels perform well under overcast skies. As a result, many of our customers offset 80–100% of their annual electricity use.
How much does a typical home solar system cost?+
Most Western Washington systems range from $18,000–$35,000, though our proposals give you an exact number for your home, no obligation. See our full cost breakdown →
What solar incentives are available in Washington?+
Washington homeowners benefit from two meaningful incentives: a 6.5% state sales tax exemption on solar equipment and installation costs, and net metering through Puget Sound Energy: excess power you send to the grid earns bill credits. For example, on a typical 10 kW system, the sales tax exemption saves $1,500–$2,000 upfront at no extra step. See how net metering works →
Installation, Value & Ownership
How long does installation take?+
Physical installation is 1–2 days, though permitting and utility interconnection add 4–8 weeks depending on your city and utility. We handle all of that, so Your job is to say yes, then flip the switch when we’re done. See our full installation process →
Will solar increase my home’s value?+
Studies consistently show solar adds 3–4% to home value. Additionally, in Washington state, solar is exempt from the property tax assessment that normally follows home improvements, so your taxes don’t go up when your home value does.
Do I need a battery with solar?+
Not necessarily. Instead, most customers use net metering, so excess power goes to the grid and you earn credits. However, batteries make sense for backup power during outages or to maximize self-sufficiency. We’ll cover both options in your proposal. See Battery Backup →
