What to ask before you hire

About Artisan Electric Inc

  • Do not hire until the state shows the license as active.
  • Ask for proof of liability insurance and a current bond.

Worth asking any solar installer

  • What size system, which panels and inverter, and what will it make in a year?
  • Is my roof good for 25 more years, and what if it needs work first?
  • Who handles the permit and the utility's approval to turn it on?
