Common Questions
Energy Upgrade FAQ
What energy upgrades qualify for the 30% federal tax credit?
The Inflation Reduction Act provides a 30% federal tax credit (up to $2,000 per year for heat pumps and $1,200 for insulation/windows, no cap for solar) for qualified energy-efficient improvements. Solar, battery storage, heat pumps, heat pump water heaters, EV chargers, insulation, and qualifying windows and doors are all eligible. KM Builders provides itemized invoices for tax filing.
How long does solar panel installation take in Los Angeles?
Solar installations in LA typically take 1–3 days for the physical install. The full timeline, including LADWP interconnection approval and city permit sign-off, is usually 6–12 weeks. KM Builders manages the entire process - system design, permit filing, installation, and utility approval.
What LADWP rebates are available right now?
LADWP currently offers up to $500 for Level 2 EV charger installation and various rebates for smart thermostats and qualifying energy-efficient appliances. Solar incentives are available through the Net Energy Metering (NEM) program. Rebate programs change frequently - KM Builders confirms available programs at the time of your estimate.
What is PACE financing and how does it work?
PACE (Property Assessed Clean Energy) financing lets you fund energy-efficient improvements with no money down. The loan is repaid as an assessment on your property tax bill over 5–25 years. PACE is available for solar, HVAC, insulation, windows, roofing, and EV chargers. KM Builders helps you determine if PACE is the right option for your project.
Do I need permits for solar or EV charger installation in LA?
Yes. Both solar installations and Level 2 EV charger installations require permits from the City of Los Angeles (LADBS) and utility interconnection approval from LADWP or SCE. KM Builders handles all permit applications, inspections, and utility approvals as part of the installation process.
