Why Solar Panels and Why Solar Energy
Solar Fox Values
Doing the Right Thing
Doing the right thing means being a company that does business with integrity, transparency, and authenticity. We look for ways for you to pay less rather than ways to make you pay more. We’re willing to do whatever it takes to work with you because you were willing to work with us. We do these things because we believe that’s how business should be done, and because we believe it’s the right thing to do.
Solar Energy Education
Solar power in the US is still in its infancy and with that, many people are in the dark when it comes to solar power general knowledge. Our primary goal when initially sitting down with a customer is to fill in the knowledge gaps, and educate them on how they can best harness the sun for electricity, even if that means informing them that they shouldn’t install a solar system.
Exceeding Expectations
The industry is full of aggressive salesmen and greedy companies. Many solar companies lure customers in with false promises and low prices and then fail to live up to the expectations. There are no salesmen here. We will give you all the data you need to make informed decisions for your home. At Solar Fox, this is our driving force for being in business…to build relationships through honesty, transparency, and authenticity.

FAQs
Questions about Solar Panel Installation for Your Home
How much does it cost to install solar panels?
The average home in Texas uses 13,440 kilowatt-hours (kwh) of electricity per year. Based on local sunshine conditions in Texas, you could use a solar system with a capacity of around 9kW to generate this electricity output. (The exact solar size may vary depending several factors, including your home’s energy usage and needs.) The average cost for a 9kW solar system is $22,590, but after the 30% federal tax credit the system would cost be $15,813.
Do solar panels have to be installed on the roof?
No. However, ground-mounted solar systems typically cost more upfront than roof arrays but are more efficient, which can lead to higher energy production. With favorable site conditions and a low-interest financing option (if needed), you can achieve more energy savings quicker.
How long does it take to get solar panels installed?
Depending on the complexity and size of the system, the installation could take anywhere from 2 to 5 days.
How much money can I save with solar panels?
The average savings from solar panels varies based on electricity rates and other factors like sun hours, usage, and incentives. In Texas, the average annual savings with solar panels is $1,530.
What is the best brand of solar panels?
Manufactured in San Antonio, Texas, we use Mission Solar Energy solar panels. Mission Solar panels are in line with industry standards, are on the higher end of the average solar panel efficiency, and have a -0% tolerance rating which is excellent for solar system performance. Mission Solar is quickly becoming the standard in the solar panel market. Overall, these indicators show that Mission Solar has a solid, high-quality manufacturing process...which is to be expected from the America Workforce!
