How do I know what kW size is right for my home?

A simple starting point is your monthly electricity bill and roof area. SOLARESS™ verifies your usage pattern, roof feasibility, and shading to recommend the right kW size without oversizing.

What is the typical payback period for residential rooftop solar?

Payback varies with tariff, self-consumption, expected generation, system cost, financing, maintenance and applicable policy. Use project-specific assumptions rather than a fixed residential payback number.

On-grid, hybrid, or off-grid — which one should I choose?

Grid-tied systems are primarily for bill reduction and normally shut down during grid outages. Hybrid or battery-based designs can provide selected-load backup when correctly engineered. The appropriate architecture depends on the site and backup requirement.

Do you provide after-installation support?

Yes. SOLARESS™ provides guidance for system monitoring, basic maintenance, and support coordination for service issues so your system keeps performing over time.

What details do I need to share for a fast estimate?

Share your city and approximate monthly bill. If available, a bill photo and roof type (RCC/Sheet) help us estimate faster and schedule a site assessment.

When Residential Solar Makes Sense

Residential solar feasibility depends on electricity use, usable shadow-free roof, tariff, system cost, generation and how much solar energy you can consume or export under the applicable arrangement.

Bill reduction depends on usage

Savings depend on your consumption pattern, tariff, system generation, self-consumption and applicable export or net-metering arrangement.

ROI should use stated assumptions

Compare system cost, expected generation, tariff, maintenance, equipment warranty terms and financing before relying on a payback estimate.

Roof suitability comes first

Usable roof area, shading, access, structure and electrical connection should be checked before final system design.

Choose the right type

We’ll recommend based on your usage, roof, and your reliability needs.

On-Grid

Designed primarily for bill reduction while connected to the grid. Standard grid-tied solar shuts down during a grid outage for safety.

Hybrid

Combines solar with compatible battery and inverter architecture when backup is required. Backup duration depends on battery capacity and selected loads.

Off-Grid

Can serve selected loads independently of the grid, but requires battery and load design based on the required autonomy and usage pattern.

Considering a 3 kW home solar system?

Review our indicative 3 kW on-grid rooftop solar offer at ₹1,90,000 excluding GST. No battery is included and no subsidy is deducted. Exact-site availability, equipment, installation scope, exclusions and final price are confirmed after assessment.

Home solar decisions depend on consumption, usable roof, shading, connection structure and whether backup is required. Use the ROI and local guides as supporting inputs rather than selecting capacity from bill value alone.

Home Rooftop Solar in Bengaluru: Start With Bill, Roof & Backup Need

A useful home-solar recommendation should not start with a generic 3 kW or 5 kW package. The starting point is your electricity consumption, usable shadow-free roof, sanctioned load, daytime usage and whether your priority is bill reduction, power backup or both.

Independent homes & villas

Share the latest electricity bill, roof type and approximate usable area. Final sizing is checked against consumption, shading and connection requirements.

Apartments & RWAs

Common-area solar and apartment projects can involve shared roofs, common meters, association approvals and connection structure. The applicable arrangement should be reviewed before proposing capacity.

Homes needing power backup

Standard grid-tied solar does not keep the house powered during an outage. Backup requires compatible hybrid or battery architecture sized to the selected loads and desired backup duration.

Subsidy & Net-Metering Guidance

Eligibility, documentation, subsidy and net-metering requirements can change and may depend on consumer category, project type, current government programme and the applicable electricity-supply company process. SOLARESS confirms the current requirements for the specific project instead of assuming every Bengaluru or Karnataka home qualifies for the same benefit.
