Questions worth asking
When evaluating any contractor installing solar in Coxsaackie, New York, the questions below are the high-leverage ones to ask — they surface the things that actually affect your 25-year economics and protect against the failure modes specific to New York's permitting and net metering rules.
1. Can you confirm your active license (a0o36000000nwwHAAQ) and provide a copy of your current certificate of insurance?
Kool-Temp Heating & Cooling Inc. appears in New York state contractor licensing records. Confirming the license is still active and asking for insurance proof should take a few minutes for any legitimate operator.
2. How do you size residential systems against my annual usage versus my peak monthly demand?
Sizing should be based on your historical bills (annual kWh) plus any expected changes (EV, heat pump, etc.). A vague answer here is a yellow flag.
3. What panel and inverter brands do you currently install, and why those?
Installers tend to favor 1–3 brands they're trained on. The answer tells you what you're signing up for in 25-year warranty terms.
4. Which battery brands do you install (Tesla Powerwall, Enphase IQ, Franklin WH, etc.), and what's the typical added cost for whole-home vs. partial-home backup?
Battery brand affects backup duration, inverter compatibility, and warranty terms. Whole-home backup typically costs 1.3–1.7× partial-home.
5. What's your typical response time when a customer calls with a service request after the install is complete?
This separates installers who treat solar as a one-shot sale from those who run a real service operation.
6. What's your workmanship warranty term, and is it transferable if I sell my home?
Strong installers offer 10+ year workmanship warranties that transfer with the property. This is what protects you against roof leaks and structural attachment failures.
7. Can you provide three references from completed residential projects in the past 12 months?
Recent references matter more than aggregate review counts; the installation team and standards can change quickly in solar.
New York requires Master Electrician + NY-Sun Participating Contractor for residential solar work. Full retail net metering (transitioning to Value of DER) is the current export compensation framework. Permitting is handled by the local AHJ — check with your municipal building department for the exact submission process.
