1. Savings claims and modeling assumptions
Every savings figure on this site is a modeled estimate, not a guarantee. Actual results depend on your roof orientation and shading, your household's energy usage, your utility's rates and net metering rules, your system's final size and design, and how those change over time.
"Slash your power bill by up to 90%" describes the upper end of modeled outcomes for well-suited homes: good sun exposure, a roof that fits a system sized to the home's usage, and a utility whose rate structure credits solar production. "Up to" means just that. Many homes will model below that figure, and some roofs are not a good fit for solar at all, which we will tell you. Before you sign anything, we produce a shade- and irradiance-based production model for your specific roof (built in Aurora Solar, an industry design platform) so the estimate you see is for your house, not an average.
The interactive savings slider and the 25-year cost comparison chart on our homepage use the following assumptions:
- Net system pricing of $2.025 per watt after the 25% Midas Wealth pass-through for qualifying customers (gross pricing of $2.70 per watt for non-qualifying customers)
- Missouri-typical production of 1,450 kWh per kW per year
- An effective utility rate of $0.14 per kWh
- 4% annual utility rate inflation
- 0.5% annual panel output degradation
- A 25-year analysis window and a system cap of 15 kW
The example shown in the chart ($99,953 in cumulative utility bills versus $33,550 in solar costs, a modeled difference of $66,403) applies those assumptions to a $200-per-month starting bill. Change any input and the output changes. Utility rate inflation in particular is an assumption about the future, not a known number; your utility's actual rate path may be higher or lower.
2. The 25% Midas Wealth incentive check
References on this site to a "25% back" check describe an incentive issued by Midas Wealth, a third-party program administrator, not by Solar Assure and not by any government agency. Key qualifications:
- Not every customer qualifies. Eligibility is determined by Midas Wealth under its program terms, not by us.
- Amount and timing are set by the program. The check equals 25% of the qualifying system cost for approved participants, and payment timing is governed by the program documents you receive during enrollment. We do not control or guarantee when funds are issued.
- Program terms control. If anything we say in marketing differs from the written Midas Wealth program documents, the program documents win. Ask us for them before you sign and we will provide what the program makes available.
The federal 25D residential clean energy tax credit expired for systems placed in service after December 31, 2025. The Midas Wealth program is not a tax credit and is not affiliated with the IRS. How any incentive affects your personal taxes depends on your situation; talk to a tax professional.
3. Financing, "$0 down," and payment comparisons
$0-down financing is subject to credit approval through third-party lenders. Not every applicant is approved, and approved terms (rate, length, fees) vary by lender and credit profile.
Where this site says a monthly solar payment is "typically" or "often" lower than a current electric bill, that reflects modeled outcomes for many qualifying homeowners, not a promise about yours. Whether your payment lands below your current bill depends on your system size, your usage, your utility's rates, and the loan terms you're approved for. Your proposal will show the actual comparison for your home before you commit.
Statements about "locking in" or fixing your energy cost refer to the fixed nature of a fixed-rate loan payment compared to variable utility rates. They do not mean your total energy spending is frozen: most homes remain connected to the grid, retain a utility service charge, and buy some grid power, especially in winter or as usage grows.
4. Equipment and workmanship warranty summary
The warranty references on this site are summaries of manufacturer warranties, which are issued and honored by the manufacturers under their own written terms and conditions. This summary is provided for disclosure and is not itself a warranty.
| Component | Warranty | Issued by |
|---|---|---|
| Solar panels | 25-year manufacturer product and performance warranty | Panel manufacturer (specified in your proposal) |
| Enphase microinverters | 25-year manufacturer limited warranty | Enphase Energy |
| FranklinWH aPower 2 battery | 15-year manufacturer limited warranty | FranklinWH |
| Installation workmanship | Covered by Solar Assure; term stated in your installation agreement | Solar Assure LLC |
Manufacturer warranties have conditions, exclusions, registration requirements, and claim procedures that this summary does not reproduce.
Complete written warranty terms are available before sale. Ask us at any point before signing and we will provide the full manufacturer warranty documents for every component in your proposal, at no cost and with no obligation. They are also linked in every installation agreement we issue.
Battery backup duration claims (for example, running essential loads through a multi-day outage) depend on battery capacity, the loads you choose to back up, weather, and solar recharging conditions. A whole-home, all-loads backup through an extended outage requires a system designed for it.
5. Reviews and ratings
Solar Assure does not publish self-hosted ratings or review counts on this site. Customer reviews live on platforms we don't control: our Google Business Profile and our Facebook page.

6. Better Business Bureau
