Local context

Solar in New Haven,
on United Illuminating service.

New Haven's older housing stock means a lot of roofs are due for replacement at the same time as the solar conversation — bundling roof + solar is the most common Teamsun project type here.

Our crew dispatches from our Bristol, CT office and reaches every New Haven ZIP within standard service radius — no third-party crews, no "we will hire local" handoff. 420+ New Haven homes already have a Teamsun system on the roof.

We work in Westville, East Rock, Wooster Square, and Westville Manor New Haven neighborhood — plus the surrounding West Haven, Hamden, East Haven area.

What customers say

Trusted by homeowners
who value quality.

“Teamsun was the only crew that walked the roof, named the panel brand, and answered every question without checking with someone. Same lead tech came back a year later when I added a battery.”
Robert P. Homeowner · Glastonbury, CT
“Three of my neighbors had Teamsun, so I called them. The crew was on my street five days after I signed.”
David L. Homeowner · West Hartford, CT
“They knew the historic district secretary by first name. Saved us six weeks on permitting alone.”
The Hwang family Homeowners · Glastonbury, CT
“Same lead tech who installed it came back four years later to swap an inverter under warranty. No charge, no excuses.”

New Haven FAQ

Questions New Haven homeowners ask.

How much does solar cost in New Haven?

A typical 8 – 12 kW residential install in New Haven runs $25,000 – $40,000 before incentives. Residential ITC no longer applies in New England, but with high regional energy costs and Connecticut state programs, effective residential costs still land 30 – 50% lower over the first five years. Commercial systems also stack up to 40% federal ITC. We model your specific roof in Aurora using United Illuminating rate data.

Does Teamsun install in my New Haven neighborhood?

Yes — we work across Westville, East Rock, Wooster Square, Westville Manor and surrounding New Haven ZIPs. 420+ New Haven homes already have a Teamsun system. The crew dispatches from our Bristol, CT office.

How long does the install take in New Haven?

47 days on average from signed contract to a working system, including New Haven permitting and United Illuminating interconnection. The on-roof portion is typically just one day. We file every form on your behalf.

What incentives can I claim as a New Haven homeowner?

CT ESS battery rebate from $5,000 (up to 100% of battery cost by location), RRES net metering, plus property and sales tax exemptions. Commercial systems also eligible for up to 40% federal ITC. Teamsun files every form with you — commercial federal ITC paperwork is handed to your CPA, state and utility paperwork we submit on your behalf as part of the install.

Do you use subcontractors on New Haven installs?

No. Every Teamsun install — in New Haven and across our entire CT, MA, and RI service area — is done by W-2 employees on our payroll. The lead tech who walks your roof at the site visit is the same lead tech who installs your system.

What if my New Haven home has an older roof?

If your roof is over 12 years from end-of-life, we strongly recommend our solar + roofing bundle — re-roof and install solar on the same timeline. New Haven's housing stock makes this a common scenario; we have the crew and process for it.

Can I add a battery to existing solar in New Haven?

Yes — see our battery retrofit service. CT ESS accept retrofitted batteries on existing solar. Most national installers refuse this work; we built a team around it.

Are you licensed to do work in New Haven?

Yes — Teamsun is licensed in Connecticut (and ME, NH, VT, FL for project work on request). License numbers, NABCEP certification, and BBB profile are all available on every quote and contract.
