New York solar guide
Find a verified solar installer in Westchester County, NY
Westchester County mixes river towns, older suburbs, and wooded hillside neighborhoods. Start with a free satellite roof check, then talk with verified, licensed installers who can look at your specific house.
What is different about Westchester County
Westchester homes range from compact city-edge houses to large properties on wooded lots. Mature trees and hilly terrain are common, so shade often decides how well a roof works for solar more than the roof's size does.
Many Westchester homes are older, which makes roof age worth a real conversation. If a roof will need replacing soon, ask an installer or roofer whether that should happen before or alongside a solar project.
Con Edison serves much of Westchester, but not necessarily every address, so check the name on your electric bill. Ask your installer how they handle interconnection with your utility and what timeline to expect.
How Solar Entry helps in Westchester County
Solar Entry is a Connecticut company that also helps New York homeowners. We do not install solar. We offer a free satellite roof check, and we help homeowners choose verified, licensed installers. Infinity Solar, a New York and Connecticut installer, is one of our installer partners.
The roof check gives you a first look at sun exposure and usable roof area from your address. It is not an on-site inspection, so the installer you choose will confirm details in person and provide written quotes and warranties.
Other towns in the area
We do not have separate guides for every town. Other places in this area include New Rochelle, Mount Vernon, Peekskill, Scarsdale, Mamaroneck; the roof check works for any address.
Things to ask any installer
- Can I see your license and proof of insurance?
- Will you provide an itemized written quote and explain how the system size was chosen?
- Who does the work: your own employees or subcontractors?
- Who handles permits and utility interconnection, and how long does it usually take?
- What warranties do I get in writing, and who honors them?

Frequently asked questions
Does Solar Entry install solar panels in Westchester County?
No. Solar Entry does not install. We offer a free satellite roof check and help Westchester County homeowners choose verified, licensed installers, including Infinity Solar, an installer partner that works in New York and Connecticut.
Which utility serves my Westchester home?
Con Edison serves much of the county, but service areas can vary by address. Look at your electric bill, then confirm current interconnection steps with that utility.
Do tall trees on my lot rule out solar?
Not necessarily. Some roof sections may still get good sun. The roof check flags shading from above and an on-site assessment gives the final answer. Trimming is only worthwhile if it makes a real difference.
Should I replace an older roof before going solar?
It is worth asking. Panels can stay on a roof for many years, so an aging roof may need attention first. A licensed installer or roofer can assess it in person.
How do I compare installers in Westchester?
Ask each company for an itemized written quote for a comparable system, verify licensing and insurance, and compare equipment, warranties, and payment terms, not just the headline price.
Which New York incentives should I look into?
New York has had programs such as NY-Sun, tax exemptions, and financing options. Terms change, so confirm current details with the program, your locality, or a tax professional.
