What you get with every system

Built the right way from day one

Every system we put up runs on Enphase microinverter technology, and that shifts what's achievable for safety, monitoring, and looks. Here's how that plays out on a real roof.

Lifetime revenue-grade monitoring, no guessing

Each panel reports on its own in real time inside the Enphase app. You can see exactly how much energy every panel is making, both this second and across its whole life. There's no wondering whether the system is pulling its weight, because the numbers are always on hand, always accurate, and revenue-grade precise.

No risky DC circuits, only safe AC power

Old-style string inverter setups push high-voltage DC across your roof, a fire hazard that worries firefighters and insurers alike. Our Enphase microinverter systems flip the power to standard AC right at each panel, so those dangerous DC circuits never exist. That's safer for your family, your home, and the crews who respond to emergencies.

Clean design, no wires running across your roof

We care about installs that look as sharp as they perform. Every wire is tucked away and routed neatly, with no exposed conduit snaking over your roofline. From the curb, your system reads as deliberate and professional, not something a low bidder tacked on as an afterthought.

One company, one warranty, no middlemen

With most contractors, a hiccup turns into a runaround: the installer blames the manufacturer, the manufacturer points back at the installer, and you're stuck in between. With us there's a single number to dial. We designed it, we installed it, we stand behind it, and Solar Insure backs the whole thing for 30 years no matter what happens to anyone else in the chain.

How we work

The May Way

Our contractor, May Electric Solar, has run on the same set of principles since 2006. These aren't slogans, they're why Nature Coast homeowners keep sending their neighbors our way.

No sub-contractors, ever

Everyone who shows up for your job is a trained MES employee. No temps, no subs. Our name rides on the work and we treat it that way.

Honest system sizing

We size the system around what your home actually needs, not around padding our invoice. Proposals are clear and the price is in writing before anyone starts.

Master Electrician on every job

Owner William May carries the FL Master Electrician license (EC13005353) himself under William May Inc. The electrical side gets done correctly the first time.

We test the equipment we install

At our Hudson, FL headquarters we keep the panels and microinverters we use running on live test rigs, proving out the gear in real conditions before it ever reaches your roof.

The bottom line

One company. One warranty. No middlemen.

From the very first site visit to the day you ring us 15 years on because a panel light is flickering, it's the same crew, the same warranty, and the same phone number. No finger-pointing, no endless voicemail menus, no "that's handled by another department." Just one company that stands behind its own work, backed by a 30-year Solar Insure policy that doesn't care who's still around.
