Joe Vazquez is so awesome and super knowledgeable and so so helpful! We had a million questions and Joe was so kind and patient with us. He explained everything so well and always returned our calls.

Joe and Cole were amazing. They assisted me with getting solar in my town home and the experience was seamless. I learned a lot throughout the process as well. Would recommend to anyone.

Have had solar installed by Ilum for a couple of years now and the experience has been excellent. Worked with a few companies prior to meeting Joe and his team and Ilum got it right ... I would recommend these guys 7 days a week and hope more people get to live the luxury of no more 700 dollar electric bills!
If you can check even one of these boxes... solar probably won't help you.
You plan to move within the next 6-8 months
Your electric bill is under $80 a month
Your roof material can't support solar panels
Still not sure? Hit the big green button below to contact us.
Solar MIGHT work for you if you can check off most of these boxes:
You're worried about how much you're paying for electricity and potential rate increases
You're frustrated by pesky power outages and the problems you run into when they happen
You're eager to go green and help make the world a healthier place for your kids
If any of these are a yes, it might make sense to have a conversation.

Jacob was done with solar people.
Last time he went to Home Depot, a guy jumped in front of his cart like it was a police chase.
“Who’s your energy provider?”
Jacob whispered “please no” and fake-texted his wife until the guy backed off.
Same story at Costco. And outside Target.
It always felt like if he didn’t say yes, they’d ask for his kidney.
So when he saw a Facebook ad about lowering his $618 electric bill, he almost scrolled past.
But he clicked. Cautiously.
And this time? He got Ryan.
No pitch. No pressure. No asking if his wife was home.
Just one question:
“Do you even care enough about your bill to fix it—or are there other priorities right now?”
Jacob blinked.
“Wait… I get to say no?”
Ryan laughed. “Always. I just ask questions so you can decide if this makes sense.”
No trapdoors. Just real help.
In the end, Jacob went solar. Saved a bunch.
But what stuck with him most?
“Ryan didn’t treat me like a lead.
He treated me like a grown-up.”
Turns out, the best part was not getting chased through the garden section to get there.
🚫 No pushy sales tactics.
🚫 No false promises.
✅ And you can walk away at any time.
We'll tell you straight up if solar doesn't seem like a good fit. Even then, YOU get to decide if you go solar or not.
Your neighbor doesn't have the exact same appliances and energy usage habits as you (and it would be super weird if they did).
That's why all our quotes are CUSTOM-MADE from scratch, with a real person on the other end.

This is who usually doesn't benefit from switching to solar:
People who plan to move to another home in 6-8 months
People whose electric bill is less than $80 a month
People with a roof that can't support solar panels
If any of these sound like you but there are still questions you want answered, let's chat!
This is who usually feels the most confident about going solar:
People who think it’s crazy how much they’re paying for electricity each month
People who are concerned that it will be hard to pay their bills if the electric rates get any higher
People who have to put their life and their family’s life on hold when the power goes out
Any of these sound relatable? It might make sense to talk more about whether solar could be right for you.
Carlos didn’t want solar to save the planet.
He just wanted to stop feeling like his house was eating him alive every summer.
His electric bill was over $500.
Wiping it out sounded amazing.
But money was tight.
“If solar costs what I think it costs,
it’s not even worth the conversation.”
Then he saw a post:
Someone in his neighborhood got solar + battery installed for no money down.
Carlos rolled his eyes.
“Yeah okay. Next they’ll tell me I won a cruise and just need to hand over my social.”
Still… he filled out the form.
Expecting pressure. Or silence.
Instead, he got Joe.
Carlos was blunt:
“Man, I’ve got no money for this.
If this is one of those ‘$0 down but surprise—it’s $9k later’ things, I’m out.”
Joe didn’t flinch.
“Fair. I’ll only keep talking if I can find something real. Deal?”
Carlos nodded. Cautiously.
Joe got to work—
Checked usage. Ran the numbers. Called his installer.
Even looped in a battery guy who owed him a favor.
It wasn’t easy. But he made it happen.
• Solar + battery
• No money out of pocket
• Old bill: $523.17
• New monthly payment: $298.24
Carlos kept waiting for the catch.
“I read the contract five times.
Still didn’t believe it until I saw the first bill.”
That bill? $0 balance.
And when the power went out down the street?
Carlos’s lights stayed on.
“It wasn’t magic. It was a rep who gave a damn and actually knew what he was doing.”
When we say "No money out of pocket," we mean it.
You do NOT need to blow your savings to cut down the cost of electricity.
And you shouldn't.
Bad sales reps like to sell solar to everybody.
That's a problem, because solar is usually a terrible idea if...
You're planning a move from your current home in the next 6-8 months
Your average electric bill comes out to less than $80 a month
Your roof isn't designed to support solar panels
If you still want to look into solar after reading this list, it might make sense to start a conversation.
We're in the business of helping, not harming. Our customers usually fall in one or more of these categories:
They feel like they're paying way too much for power and want to cut costs ASAP
They're dreading rate increases from power companies and don't know how they'll be able to afford it
They're fed up with the grid going down unexpectedly and putting important things on hold until the power comes back
Does any of this sound like your situation? If so, we might be able to help. But first, let's find out if solar is actually a good fit for you and your family.
