Solar Installation for Lower Merion Homeowners
PECO provides electric service throughout Lower Merion, and many of the township's larger colonial and Tudor-style homes draw substantial electricity for heating and cooling. Pennsylvania's net metering rules let homeowners offset those costs by feeding excess solar production back to the grid. The township's Historic Architectural Review Board oversees certain districts, but modern low-profile panels integrate well with most approved aesthetics.
Lifestyle Solar understands that Lower Merion homeowners expect premium craftsmanship and attention to architectural detail. Our design team works closely with each client, and with local permitting authorities, to create systems that complement the character of Main Line homes while delivering maximum energy savings.

Every step of your Lower Merion solar installation
From the first visit to the day your system turns on, here is what actually happens.
1. On-site assessment
We visit your Lower Merion property, walk the roof, check the electrical panel, and review 12 months of your PECO bills. No charge, no obligation.
2. Engineered system design
Our engineers size the array to your actual usage and design panel placement around shading, roof orientation, and structural load. You see the plan before anything is ordered.
3. Permits and interconnection
We file the local building permit with Montgomery County and the interconnection application with PECO. You sign once; we handle the back-and-forth.
4. Installation
Most Lower Merion installs are completed in one day on the roof. Larger or complex systems may take additional time. Our crew is in and out the same week we start.
5. Inspection and activation
Montgomery County or city inspectors sign off, PECO swaps or reprograms your meter, and the system turns on. We are there for both steps.
6. Monitoring setup
Before we leave, your phone is connected to the production app. You can see daily kilowatt-hours, panel-level performance, and any alerts the moment they appear.
