Home owners insurance

We suggest reaching out to your homeowners insurance and adding your new system to your policy. Homeowners insurance may cover solar panels under your policy's dwelling coverage if your panels are permanently attached to the roof and damaged due to certain covered perils, often excluding wind and hail. Ground-mounted solar panels may be covered under other structures coverage. They may not be covered if improperly installed, leased, or damaged due to wear and tear.
