With so many avenues to explore, we’re here to provide some guidance!

Watch below, and read below for a summary recap.
Q: Who is Solar Insure?
Solar Insure offers a monitoring and warranty solution to address the challenges faced by the solar industry. In a landscape marked by fierce competition and consumer skepticism, our monitoring and warranty coverage provides peace of mind. We understand the concerns surrounding manufacturer insolvency, and our policies safeguard your investment against such risks. Our commitment to monitoring and warranties sets us apart. With a dedicated monitoring system, we ensure the optimal performance of your solar installation. Furthermore, our impressive 30-Year Solar Warranty and 20-Year Battery Warranty demonstrate our confidence in the durability and reliability of our products.
Our coverage extends to various aspects, including parts, labor, roof penetrations, and ownership transfer. We understand the importance of monitoring and offer support in that area as well. Moreover, our Battery Warranty covers replacements for up to 30% below capacity during years 11-20. We prioritize quality and, as such, our warranties apply to select inverters and all Tier 1 solar panel brands, empowering you to shop with confidence. Notably, we proudly highlight our trusted Elite Manufacturer, QuickBOLT, whose products are included in our coverage.
Q: Who is QuickBOLT?
QuickBOLT is a specialty solar mounting supplier, and Solar Insure’s Elite Mounting Provider. QuickBOLT has been bringing innovative rooftop mounting solutions to the industry for 12 years, and is the first company to bring over-the-shingle Top Mounted solutions to the US market.
Our patented QuickBOLT has been installed over 4 million times, and has ZERO reported leaks. That number is made possible by the innovative over-the-shingle installation. It’s a quicker, easier installation that improves installers’ profits on the front-end in terms of costs, and provides further security on the back-end with long-term reliability.
QuickBOLT offers mounts for the most common roofing materials. Our solutions are all designed to improve ease of install and minimize impact to the roof. New products like our Butyl Deck Mounts, our Stone Coated Steel roof hooks, and many others all serve to improve the affordability of the solar system for homeowners. With our patented solutions, shining track record, and top tier quality service QuickBOLT is a no-brainer as Solar Insure’s partner in solar installations.
Q: As an installer, what are the benefits to QuickBOLT being on the Solar Insure AVL?
Confidence, assurance, and choice. Solar Insure vets their approved vendors thoroughly, and through that process installers can find confidence in the companies they choose to work with. QuickBOLT offers a 25-year manufacturing warranty on parts, and they have ZERO claims against their patented QuickBOLT mount under that warranty. With labor being half the cost of your average job, installers can protect their labor investment with Solar Insure’s 30 year Warranty and Monitoring product.
Finally, QuickBOLT has mounts for every type of residential roof. That sort of variety comes with expertise. While you could rely only on their mounting expertise, with Solar Insure’s vetting you get an extra layer of protection.
