Installer disappeared or left your solar project unfinished?

Yes. We regularly take over systems originally installed by other companies — including installers that have since closed. Our licensed crews work on most major panel, inverter, and battery brands. In the intake, note the equipment brands, error codes, and what the monitoring app shows. A coordinator will arrange a secure photo or document handoff if it is needed; never send us a password.

Manufacturer warranties are separate from the installer's workmanship promise and may remain available under their own terms. Eligibility can depend on the product, registration, transfer rules, installation records, and the claimed failure. Confirm coverage with the manufacturer and do not assume the installer’s closure automatically preserves or cancels a specific claim. We can help identify the equipment and supporting records.

In most cases, yes. A Powerwall 3 stores 13.5 kWh of usable energy with 11.5 kW of continuous output, integrates with solar natively, and is managed in the Tesla app. We assess your existing array, electrical panel, and interconnection, then design a battery addition that works with the equipment you already have. We'll flag upfront if anything about the original install needs to be corrected first.

It depends on what's wrong — a tripped breaker or offline monitoring gateway is a quick fix, while a failed inverter or string fault takes more diagnosis. We give you a clear, written estimate before any paid work begins, and if a repair falls under a manufacturer warranty we'll point that out so you don't pay for parts that should be covered.

Check your monitoring app or the inverter display for any error lights, and note your panel and inverter brand. Then send us those details. Don't assume the system is dead — most 'orphaned' systems we see are mechanically fine and just need re-commissioning, a monitoring reset, or a single component repaired or warrantied.

Do not change loan, lease, or PPA payments based only on the installer’s bankruptcy. Confirm instructions with the finance company or qualified counsel, and save your contract, warranty, permit, inspection, interconnection, and monitoring records. The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware now says case 26-10522 converted from Chapter 11 to Chapter 7. That court status does not prove every individual project is abandoned, so verify your own project status while arranging independent help for repairs or unfinished work.

Freedom Forever filed for Chapter 11 on April 15, 2026, and the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware now says case 26-10522 converted to Chapter 7. Chapter 7 is a liquidation process, but the conversion alone does not establish the status of every customer contract or project. Gather your records, confirm your lender and permit status, and arrange independent service or a completion assessment if work has stopped.

We assess unfinished projects and determine whether OC Solar can take over permitting, correction work, inspection, utility interconnection, or completion. Feasibility depends on the contract and financing, equipment ownership, permit status, existing workmanship, available records, and the requirements of the city and utility. Tell us where the project stopped and which records you have; a coordinator will arrange a secure document handoff if needed before we say what is supportable.
