Frequently Asked Questions

As experts in solar and roofing, we understand that our clients may have some common questions about our services.

Do I need a roof review before installing solar?

Yes. A roof readiness review helps determine whether your roof is in good condition before solar panels are installed.

Does SunSent serve Springfield, MO?

Yes. SunSent serves Springfield and nearby southwest Missouri communities.

What areas near Springfield do you serve?

SunSent can support homeowners in Springfield, Nixa, Ozark, Republic, Battlefield, Strafford, Willard, Rogersville, and nearby areas.

Springfield has its own electric utility — how does that change the solar interconnection process?

Springfield is served by City Utilities of Springfield, a municipally owned utility — not Ameren Missouri, not Evergy. Solar customers submit a Parallel Generation Agreement directly to City Utilities rather than following the Missouri PSC’s Easy Connection Act process used by investor-owned utilities. City Utilities credits excess generation at its avoided-cost rate, which differs from retail-rate net metering. Contact City Utilities’ Energy Services team early in the planning process to understand current buyback terms and system size limits before finalizing your solar proposal.

Parts of Springfield near downtown look historic — does that affect my roofing or solar permit

It may. Springfield maintains both a National Register inventory and a local Springfield Historic Register (updated November 2021) covering residential and commercial properties — including Walnut Street, South Avenue, and adjacent neighborhoods. Homes on the local register may require review by the city’s Historic Preservation staff before exterior modifications, including roofing material changes or solar panel placement on visible roof faces. All city permits go through Building Development Services at 840 Boonville Ave. Check your address against the Historic Register before scheduling work.

Can solar be installed on an older roof?

It depends on the roof condition. If the roof is near the end of its life, roofing work may be recommended before solar installation.

Do you offer storm damage roof reviews?

Yes. SunSent can review signs of storm-related roof damage before planning a solar project.

Do you offer backup power solutions?

Yes. SunSent can help homeowners explore backup power options for added energy security.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.I had solar panels installed on my home a few years ago by SunSent Solar. I wasn't sure if it was the right choice for me and it was a big leap and not all that inexpensive. Fortunately it was the right decision as the project has greatly reduced my expense from the electric company. I now pay for electricity for just 3 or 4 months during the winter and even those bills are much less that what I had before. I am saving thousands each year and with electricity prices continuing to rise the gear will pay for itself sooner than I thought possible. I am so glad I had the solar installed and highly recommend SunSent Solar for providing the same benefit for others. The best financial move I ever made.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.I've been a Sunsent (Solar) customer for several years, and recently my system encountered an issue. The technician they sent out, Jon, came out diagnosed and addressed the issue promptly. He even offered to address an issue outside of the scope of his work (but within the scope of the company). If you get Jon as a technician, you should relax because you're in good hands!

In 90* heat after a 5 hour drive to get here, they remained professional, determined, and focused on getting everything working properly. I totally appreciate their dedication and commitment. Highly recommend them and grateful for their hard work.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Jordan and the team did a great job at installing our panels back in October. We were lucky enough to get the tax credit from the federal government last year as well for the install. With a pool and air-conditioner running the entire month plus June being a hot one our electric bill was only $41 put that into contrast at the same time as last year when it was $360. Months of May, April, and March our bill was $0 and even got a credit for some months. With not having any other electric company besides AMEREN you really have two choices... continue to pay what they bill you or produce your own power. Yes there is a quite an upfront cost but if you plan on staying in your house for 10 years it will come close to paying you back and you will have one less expense.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.I purchased solar panels for my house from sunset solar and I have zero regrets. Jordan was so helpful through the whole process and has made sure even with time to check back in. With My monthly payment and my ameren bill combined, it’s not near as much as I used to pay. One month my ameren bill was even negative. So happy I made this purchase and would recommend them to anyone! :)
