Storm season ready
When the neighborhood goes dark, your house doesn't.
East Tennessee storms, ice and downed lines knock the power out every year. A solar + battery system stores your own energy and switches over automatically — no cords, no fuel, no trip outside in the rain.
- Critical-loads backup for the essentials, or whole-home backup for everything
- Batteries carry a 10-year warranty and recharge from your panels every day
- Prefer fuel-based backup? We install Generac standby generators too
Our process
Going solar shouldn't be hard.
Five clear steps from first visit to flipping the switch. We handle the paperwork and the utility so you don't have to.
1
Site assessment
We measure your roof or ground site, review your power bills and design a system for your real usage.
2
Permits & applications
We prepare and submit every permit and utility application for you.
3
Installation
Our own crew delivers materials, installs and wires your system.
4
Inspection
State and local utility inspections. We build to local code to pass the first time.
5
Commissioning
We connect inverters, run final checks and power up your system.
We've worked with nearly every utility board, inspector and permitting office in East Tennessee — so we know each local requirement before we start.

"I'm averaging about a hundred dollars a month off my electric bill. We've had several outages from cars hitting poles and downed lines, but the battery backup kept my house powered while the rest of the neighborhood was dark."

"From the scheduling on the phone to the successful repair they did, my experience was stress free. The young men they sent out were knowledgeable, polite, and explained everything to me clearly… And I was pleased with the price they gave me!"

"We bought a home that already had solar panels installed by [another company] and have had nothing but trouble for months trying to get anyone to come out… What was going to take 5 months, they came the next week and had everything running the same day."

About Your Home Solar
We treat your home like it's our home.
Your Home Solar was founded by Ernie Bussell — a U.S. Navy veteran who served as a missile technician and quality assurance inspector on Ohio-class submarines, then became a teacher and dean here in East Tennessee before building a career in solar operations.
That background shows up in how we work: do the job right, do what we promised, and be there when you call. We're a Knoxville crew, not a national call center, and we'll support your system for the years it's on your roof.

FAQ
Straight answers about solar in Tennessee.
Education first. Pressure has no place in decisions about your home and finances.
Ask an energy consultantHow much does a solar system cost?
It depends on your household's usage — two identical homes can use very different amounts of power. That's why we send a trained consultant to review your bills and site, then give you a quote based on your real numbers, not a guess.
Are there solar incentives in Tennessee?
Incentives change often. The 30% federal residential solar tax credit ended for home systems installed after 2025, so we'll walk you through what's currently available for your situation during your estimate. Always confirm eligibility with a qualified tax professional.
What happens when the grid goes down?
With a battery and a whole-home setup, your entire home stays powered. With a critical-loads setup, your essentials — refrigerator, lights, internet — stay on.
Can you fix a system another company installed?
Yes. We service nearly all major brands and regularly help homeowners whose original installer is unresponsive or out of business.
Does it have to go on my roof?
No. We also install ground-mount systems when your roof isn't the best fit.
What if I need a new roof later?
No problem — we remove the panels and reinstall them after the new roof is on. If an insurance claim covers the roof, it usually covers removal and reinstallation too.
Do you offer financing?
We work with multiple financing partners so you can compare monthly payment options for solar, batteries, generators and EV chargers. Financing is subject to credit approval; terms and rates are set by the lender.
