Solar & Battery Systems

Your residential solar installation starts with a free consultation that can include a site visit, remote estimate, shade assessment, system sizing, and a full proposal. Appletree Gas HVAC uses that early planning stage to match the system to your home, roof type, backup goals, and expected energy use.

Yes. Roof-mounted solar systems are the most common residential solar installation we provide, but ground-mounted, flat-roof, metal-roof, and asphalt-shingle applications are also available. The right option depends on your home layout, sun exposure, and the kind of battery backup or future expansion you want.

Yes. We install off-grid solar systems for homeowners who need independent power, including setups with generator backup. A proper off-grid system is designed around real household usage, storage needs, and reliability goals, so the design stage matters just as much as the installation itself.

A hybrid solar system combines solar generation with battery storage while staying connected to the grid. For many homeowners, hybrid solar offers better energy flexibility because it can support daily power use, store energy for later, and provide backup during outages when paired with the right setup.

Yes. Our battery storage solutions include new battery installs, battery add-ons to existing solar, critical-load backup panels, whole-home backup, and battery replacement or upgrade work. That gives homeowners flexible options whether they are starting from scratch or improving an older residential solar system.

Yes. Appletree Gas HVAC handles the required paperwork and assists homeowners with the rebate application process for qualifying projects. For a solar and battery installation, that support can save time, reduce confusion, and help keep the project moving through the approval and installation stages more smoothly.

Yes, in many cases battery storage can be added later to an existing solar setup. That depends on system design, compatibility, backup goals, and available space for equipment. During a battery storage consultation, we can review whether an add-on, replacement, or upgraded backup configuration makes the most sense.

After your residential solar installation is complete, we can help with utility interconnection support, monitoring setup, app training, troubleshooting, and equipment warranty guidance. That after-installation support is important because homeowners often need help understanding system performance, backup operation, and what to do if something changes.

Yes. Solar panel maintenance and inspections are available for homeowners who want their system checked for performance concerns, visible issues, or general peace of mind. Inspections are especially useful when you notice unexpected output changes, want a professional review, or need help troubleshooting a solar system.

Our residential solar and battery service area matches our HVAC service area: Vancouver, Surrey, Langley, New Westminster, Burnaby, Port Coquitlam, and Delta. Keeping the solar service area local helps us deliver clearer site planning, smoother communication, and practical support before, during, and after installation.
