FAQ

How does Glean work?

Glean operates like a mortgage or insurance broker. We are partnered with local solar installers that we have vetted according to our code of conduct. We provide homeowners with 3 solar quotes, an easy-to-compare quote summary (that includes a detailed financial analysis) and a quote review call to answer questions. Our service is free because we collect a fee from the installer whose quote is chosen. This fee is the same for every installer so there is never a financial incentive for us to recommend one installer over another. For more information about the Glean process click here.

What do I get with Glean?

Once you provide us with some preliminary information we start by sending you a no-obligation solar panel layout and a rough price estimate for your home based on current industry trends. If this aligns with your expectations, we can begin the work to get you 3 solar quotes from our network of installers. Once we get the quotes, we will send you a detailed quote summary PDF document comparing the most important aspects of each quote apples-to-apples.

We ensure that each solar quote includes a solar PV system design image, solar production estimate, projected utility bill savings, equipment brand and warranty, price comparison, grant/rebate amounts, and more. Glean also highlights important financial metrics you can use to evaluate each option, such as payback period.

Your Glean solar expert will then schedule a 1-on-1 quote review call (or virtual meeting) to ensure you understand the differences between each quote and that all your questions are answered. Once you choose an installer, we make a direct introduction and the work begins!

Why should I use Glean?
What If I already have quotes?

As a trusted solar broker with a database of thousands of solar quotes, Glean provides a solar panel quote review service so everyone can choose the right installer with confidence. If you already have solar quotes or would prefer to solicit quotes on your own instead of using our quote brokering service, we are still happy to help you learn how your quotes stack up against the rest of the solar industry. We have a free and paid option depending on how much detail and assistance you’d like. Click here for more information.

How does Glean choose solar installers?

At Glean, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of professionalism, integrity, and customer satisfaction. Our solar installers are expected to adhere to our Code of Conduct to ensure a positive experience for both homeowners and fellow members of the Canadian solar community. Glean installers must be local, highly experienced and have a superior reputation. Glean solar installers must use in-house labour (instead of subcontracting). In Alberta, we never work with installers that use door-to-door sales.

Who works at Glean?

Glean is a Canadian owned and operated small business. We are homeowners. We are human beings (not robots!). We care about Canada’s solar industry. We care about the planet. With Glean, you will always deal directly with one of the people listed here.

What solar panel incentives exist?

Lots! All Canadian homeowners can now access the federal Greener Homes Loan which provides up to $40,000 interest free. Currently, any grants or rebates generally come at the municipal or provincial level. Canadian businesses are currently eligible for a Federal tax credit up to 30%.
