1. Solar system and work

Contractor shall sell, deliver, and install the residential solar photovoltaic system described in Exhibit A — Solar System and Work Specifications at the project address. The signed Exhibit identifies the modules, inverter or microinverters, mounting system, monitoring equipment, nameplate capacity, proposed array location, electrical work, roof work, drawings, and exclusions. The system and its installation are a cash purchase; this agreement grants no lease, power purchase agreement, security interest, or assignment of the system to Contractor.

Contractor shall obtain the permits and arrange the inspections assigned to it in Exhibit A, perform the agreed electrical and structural work, and submit the utility interconnection materials identified there. Utility permission to operate is a separate event: Contractor shall not energize the system for normal operation before the utility and authorities whose approval is required have authorized it. Owner shall supply reasonable access, the utility account information needed for interconnection, and the selections and approvals identified in Exhibit A.

Any change in equipment, array position, scope, price, or dates must be in a writing signed by Owner and Contractor before the changed work begins. The change order shall identify substitute equipment and any effect on estimated output, warranties, price, and completion. This signed agreement, Exhibit A, and the attached cancellation notices are the entire agreement.

2. Dates and completion

Starting date: [__/__/____]. Installation completion date: [__/__/____]. Target inspection and interconnection submission date: [__/__/____].

Contractor shall report a material delay promptly and propose a signed date change. The parties will record installation completion in a walkthrough record listing any remaining work. Installation completion does not represent utility permission to operate.

3. Price and payment

Total cash contract price: $[AMOUNT], including equipment, labor, permits and the scope in Exhibit A, subject to signed changes only. Contractor provides no loan or finance charge under this contract.

Payment total: $[TOTAL], equal to the contract price. Payment method: [METHOD]. Owner may identify disputed incomplete or defective work in writing and withhold a reasonable related amount while paying undisputed amounts. No payment waives the statutory cancellation right.

Incentives and credits: Contractor has made no guarantee of a tax credit or utility incentive. The parties allocate any application work, fee, rebate, or renewable-energy credit here: [IDENTIFY PROGRAM, APPLICANT, OWNER OF BENEFIT, AND RESPONSIBLE PARTY / NONE]. Any projected savings in Exhibit A is an estimate with stated assumptions, not a payment promise.

4. Contractor disclosures, warranties, and site conditions

Five-year related-entity disclosure: List every corporation, limited liability company, partnership, sole proprietorship or other legal entity that is or has been a Connecticut home improvement contractor or new home construction contractor and in which any owner of Contractor is or has been a shareholder, member, partner or owner during the previous five years. If none, write NONE: [ENTITY; PERSON; PERIOD / NONE].

Roof and structure: The parties' preinstallation record is [EXHIBIT B / DESCRIPTION]. Contractor's roof penetrations, flashing, weatherproofing, and repair responsibility are [SPECIFICATIONS AND WARRANTY]. Work on preexisting roof defects or structural repairs outside Exhibit A requires a signed change order.

Equipment warranties: [MANUFACTURER, PRODUCT, DURATION, TRANSFER RULE, CLAIM CONTACT]. Contractor workmanship and roof-penetration warranty: [SCOPE, DURATION, REMEDY, CLAIM CONTACT]. Contractor shall deliver the equipment manuals, warranty documents, permit closeout, as-built system diagram, and monitoring credentials at [MILESTONE].

Production estimate, if one is attached: [ANNUAL KWH, MODEL, SHADE/WEATHER ASSUMPTIONS, DEGRADATION, AND WHETHER CONTRACTOR GIVES ANY WRITTEN PERFORMANCE GUARANTEE / NONE]. Any guarantee must state its measured period, exclusions, and remedy in Exhibit A.

Removal and reinstallation for future roof work: [WHO PERFORMS AND PAYS, NOTICE, WARRANTY EFFECT]. Insurance and damage: Contractor shall maintain [CARRIER; COVERAGE; LIMITS; POLICY / NONE SPECIFIED] and repair physical damage caused by its work. The parties shall document any agreed punch-list items at completion.

No provision of this contract makes Owner request cancellation of recurring work by a future date. New work requires a signed change order or new agreement.

5. Cancellation, notices and disputes

Owner's cancellation right: Connecticut treats this home improvement contract as a home solicitation sale regardless of where it is signed. Owner may cancel until midnight of the third business day after the day Owner signs. For this purpose, do not count Saturdays, Sundays or Connecticut legal holidays. The completed, duplicate detachable notices following Exhibit A explain how to cancel. The deadline entered on both notices must be the correct calendar date. Owner may give written notice showing intent to cancel to the business address or other contact in the notices. Contractor shall orally inform Owner of this right at signing and shall honor a timely cancellation.

Contractor shall deliver Owner without charge a completed copy of this contract, Exhibit A and both detachable notices when this agreement is executed. If Contractor sends a digital copy, Contractor shall put the following statement immediately adjacent to the email or other message body in at least 12-point type (or the same size as a larger message body): PLEASE REVIEW IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHT TO CANCEL THIS AGREEMENT IN THE “NOTICE OF CANCELLATION” BEING PROVIDED TO YOU.

Ordinary written notices other than cancellation go to the parties' addresses above or to an acknowledged email address above. A party claiming breach shall describe it in writing and allow [NUMBER] days to cure if cure is possible. If an uncured material breach ends the work, the parties shall account for completed work, payments and lawful offsets. Connecticut law governs and a court with jurisdiction in [COUNTY] County, Connecticut may hear a dispute, subject to mandatory consumer protections.
