🔎 All the Reasons You Can Cancel Your Solar Contract

Know Your Rights. Void the Lies.

At VOID MY SOLAR, we help homeowners cancel solar contracts that were deceptive, incomplete, or outright illegal. If any of the following apply to you, you may be eligible for full contract cancellation — even after the rescission period has passed.

🚨 Common Misrepresentations & Lies (Grounds for Cancellation)

  1. "You'll never pay another energy bill."
    – Your solar rep promised bill elimination, but you still pay your utility.

  2. "Your solar panels will be free."
    – You were told you’d pay nothing, but now you’re locked into a loan or lease.

  3. "Tax credits will cover the entire cost."
    – Promised incentives that never came through, or were misrepresented.

  4. "This won’t affect your credit."
    – Your credit was checked or impacted, even though you were told it wouldn’t be.

  5. "You can cancel anytime."
    – Verbal promises that contradict the written contract terms.

  6. Solar rep forged your signature or submitted documents without your full understanding.

  7. Salesperson signed you up on an iPad without showing you a full copy of the agreement.

  8. You were rushed or pressured into signing without reviewing the fine print.

  9. Contracts tied to 25–30 year terms
    – Often not fully explained or framed as short-term when sold.

  10. Balloon payments or escalator clauses
    – Typically not disclosed upfront; clients misled on true long-term cost.

  11. Vague or misleading production guarantees
    – Promised energy savings or performance that never materialized.

⚠️ Predatory Sales Practices

  1. Door-to-door sales posing as utility companies or government agents.
    – You were told this was a government program or utility-sponsored audit.

  2. False claims that solar is “required” or “mandated” in your area.

  3. Misleading claims about increasing home value
    – Promised equity gains that turned out to be false.

  4. Salespeople provided fake, inflated, or forged income documents to qualify you for loans.

  5. Aggressive door-to-door sales tactics
    – Falls under deceptive or high-pressure selling methods.

  6. Third-party contractors hired for installation with no direct customer support
    – Sales teams disappear after the deal is done, often leaving clients stranded.

📃 Contract Deficiencies (Legal Triggers for Cancellation)

  1. Blank or missing material terms
    – If your contract had key fields left blank (like price, term length, or financing terms).

  2. Font size smaller than 10-point (in states like Arizona)
    – Contracts must meet legal formatting standards to be valid.

  3. Missing legally required disclosures
    – Such as system performance estimates, maintenance costs, and tax implications.

  4. No copy of contract provided at signing
    – If you didn’t receive a physical or digital copy of what you signed.

  5. Contract doesn’t include required state-specific statutory language.

  6. Failure to disclose total installation cost, maintenance fees, or loan interest.

  7. No mention of removal or maintenance costs
     – Critical terms omitted — violates contract disclosure laws.

  8. The contract was only in English and you didn’t fully understand it.
    – You were not provided a Spanish version or a clear explanation of the terms before signing.

💳 Financing & Lender Issues

  1. You were not made aware you were taking out a loan.

  2. You financed through Mosaic, Sunlight Financial, GoodLeap, etc., without clear explanation of terms.

  3. Loan or lease was presented as a “free upgrade” with no long-term obligation.

🏠 Post-Sale Issues

  1. System underperforms or never worked as promised.

  2. Inability to sell or refinance your home due to a solar lien or UCC filing.

  3. Your monthly payment is higher than your pre-solar utility bill.

  4. You’ve experienced harassment, threats, or collections after trying to cancel.

⚖️ Legal Terms That May Apply

  • Voidable Contracts: If key material terms are blank, misleading, or omitted — you may cancel without penalty.

  • Unconscionable Terms: Overly one-sided contracts that violate consumer protection laws can be invalidated.

  • Lack of Full Disclosure: Failing to disclose critical obligations (tax liability, removal costs, etc.) may render contracts unenforceable.
