Residential Installations
We provide complete residential solar solutions using premium components including REC panels with 25-year warranties. Our systems reduce electricity bills while increasing home value through clean, renewable energy production. Installation includes APS interconnection assistance and panel-level monitoring for optimal performance tracking.
Commercial Installations
Our commercial solar systems utilize 5-year MACRS depreciation and property tax exemptions to maximize ROI. We design scalable solutions with demand charge reduction capabilities through battery integration. Services include APS net metering coordination and financing options with terms up to 25 years at 4.99% interest.
Energy Storage
We install certified energy storage solutions from Franklin, Enphase, EG4, Tesla, and Sonnen. These systems provide grid independence during outages and enable peak shaving through automated energy dispatch. Our lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries offer safety and 10,000+ cycle longevity with smartphone monitoring.

Our real-time monitoring platform provides panel-level performance data accessible via smartphone or computer. The cellular-based system requires no internet connection and includes historical production analysis. Customers receive alerts for performance anomalies and can track energy savings over time.
Solar Panel Cleaning
We recommend annual cleaning for optimal efficiency in dusty environments. Our service network handles bird droppings and particulate buildup that can reduce system output. Regular maintenance preserves warranty validity and ensures maximum energy production through properly maintained photovoltaic surfaces.

Report
Solar panels are a big expense, so I did my homework. Yuma Solar is a local, family owned business that has an A+ rating from BBB. They offer all of the services the others do including 0 down, Federal and State tax credits (if you don't qualify for the tax credits they'll work with you), long term low rate financing, even 5 year payback with 0 interest. The one thing Yuma Solar has, the others don't is Jennifer. She will generally be your first contact. Jennifer is knowledgeable on all aspects of the process. She makes the whole process understandable, even easy. She answered all my questions

Very unreliable company. Go with Sun Power, they are way better than this junk "local" company. My panels weren't working for over a month, and my electricity bill skyrocketed. And they didn't help alleviate my loss. I spoke with Sun Power, and they said I would've never had this kind of issues, and they would've been on top of their customer...... BE AWARE of Yuma Solar. They are a scam!!! Go with Sun Power.

We recently used Yuma Solar to install solar panels on our house. We have been very pleased with the top notch service and installation we received. They have been very professional, from helping us with financing, the installation process, and completion with APS. Jennifer answered all of our questions and concerns. We couldn't be more happy with our decision to go with them.
