Before You Install Solar – The Practical Guide Every Indian Homeowner Must Read
India’s solar revolution is accelerating like never before. Homes and businesses are now turning their roofs into clean-energy generators thanks to strong government support.
Getting a rooftop solar quote often feels like navigating a maze of promises and buzzwords. One company talks about “zero-cost solar”. Another promises “pay only for generation.” Someone else throws in “free maintenance, lifetime warranty, subsidy included.”
Everything looks perfect—until you learn what’s really behind the marketing.
That’s precisely why Before You Go Solar was written—to empower buyers with truth, not taglines.
? The Solar Buyer’s Handbook India Needed
This is the first no-sales-pitch solar guide crafted for Indian buyers. Rather than convincing you to buy, it empowers you to choose wisely.
Drawing from actual solar installations, it breaks down key lessons:
• How to choose a trustworthy solar company
• What “generation guarantee” really means (and when it’s a trap)
• Why subsidies aren’t always what they seem
• How to calculate your real savings, not just the “brochure numbers”
• The difference between EMI and PPA — and how many buyers get misled by this
Whenever you’ve felt unsure about a solar offer, this handbook tells you what’s real.
?? The Smart Buyer’s Step Before Saying Yes to Solar
In a fast-growing solar industry, awareness is your greatest safeguard. A large number of buyers regret decisions made without understanding actual system performance.
It provides a step-by-step method to judge every solar deal you encounter. You’ll learn to read solar quotes like a pro, without needing engineering expertise.
Consider it your go-to guide—authored by a professional who has built, run, and analyzed real installations.
? Insights from the Ground, Not the Boardroom
Penned by someone deeply involved in the solar field, it delivers firsthand knowledge. Its lessons come directly from rooftops across cities like Delhi and Pune, where every success and mistake became a learning.
The entire book focuses on protecting your investment and peace of mind. Because once a system is installed, there’s no “undo” button — and solar is a 25-year relationship with your roof.
? Exclusive Bonus – The Vendor Comparison Tool
Selecting your installer is as crucial as selecting your panels. That’s why Before You Go Solar comes with an exclusive Bonus Checklist designed to help you compare multiple solar vendors side by side — apples to apples.
It’s not a theoretical worksheet but a proven field guide to assess:
• Whether the company’s generation promise is realistic
• If their warranty and service clauses are clearly defined
• What kind of structure, inverter, and panel quality they’re offering
• Whether they include hidden charges or misleading “zero-cost” schemes
• And most importantly, how to identify red flags before you commit
It helps you cut through glossy slides and focus on actual value. This checklist alone can save you lakhs of rupees and ensure you choose not just the lowest quote — but the right one.
