When it comes to going solar in California, timing is everything. Energy rates continue to rise, the state’s net metering changes are reshaping how homeowners save, and the federal solar tax credit is only guaranteed for a limited time. If you’ve been thinking about going solar, now is the time to lock in the biggest savings—and US Power’s factory-direct partnership with Qcells is the smartest way to do it.
Solar panels are a 25+ year investment in your home. The right choice will determine how much power you produce, how much you save, and how long your system lasts. Unfortunately, many homeowners only focus on cost—and end up with lower-performance panels that degrade faster, costing more in the long run.
That’s why US Power proudly installs Qcells, a global leader in solar technology, direct from the factory to your roof. This means you get top-tier performance and durability at factory-direct pricing—without paying extra for middleman markups.
Feature | Qcells (US Power Factory-Direct) | Typical Competitors |
---|---|---|
Performance | Up to ~22% efficiency with excellent real-world output, even in high heat | ~19–20% efficiency, more affected by temperature loss |
Warranty | 25-year product + 25-year performance warranty (at least 86% output in year 25) | 10–12 year product + 25-year performance warranty (~80% output) |
Durability | Tested for extreme heat, hail, and high winds; salt-mist corrosion resistant | Varies by brand, often less rigorous |
Made For | Designed in Germany, built in the USA under strict quality control | Commonly made overseas with varying quality standards |
Cost | Factory-direct pricing—no middleman | Multiple markups, higher final price |
Service | Full-service install + lifetime support from US Power | Limited support post-installation |
Sustainability | Manufactured in facilities with advanced environmental standards | Varies, not always disclosed |
If you’re in California, you already know utility rates are some of the highest in the nation—and they’re still climbing. But that’s not the only reason homeowners are moving fast on solar:
Many solar companies sell whatever panels they can get cheapest that month. At US Power, we only install Qcells panels because we know your investment deserves proven technology and reliable warranties.
Plus, our factory-direct relationship with Qcells means you pay less for higher quality. We handle everything—from design to permits to installation—so you can start saving without the stress.
Every month you wait is another month you’re paying the utility company more than you need to. Switching to Qcells solar with US Power means:
Choosing US Power for your Qcells system is about more than just getting solar—it’s about getting the right solar solution for California’s unique climate and cost challenges. You get a panel designed for peak efficiency in high heat, a warranty that protects your investment for decades, and factory-direct savings you can’t get from a typical installer.
With incentives, net metering changes, and high demand, there has never been a better time for California homeowners to go solar. US Power can help you lock in the best panels, the best pricing, and the best service—right now.
