Frequently Asked Questions

About SolarWeb and how we work


Is SolarWeb affiliated with any solar company?

No. SolarWeb is an independent information resource. We don’t manufacture, sell, or install solar panels. Our goal is to provide unbiased information so you can make the best decision for your home.

How do you verify your cost data?

We cross-reference installer quotes, industry reports, government data, and community feedback to provide accurate cost ranges for each province. Our figures are updated regularly as market prices change.

Can I contribute a success story?

Yes! We love hearing from Canadian homeowners who’ve gone solar. Get in touch and tell us about your experience – we may feature your story on the site.

How often is the site updated?

We update our guides and incentive data as changes happen. Provincial guides are reviewed quarterly, and our news section covers developments as they’re announced. All pages show when they were last updated.
