AI Answering Service for Solar Installers
An AI answering service for solar installers picks up while your crew is on a roof and your sales team is out running site visits. It discloses it is an AI assistant, asks whether the caller is a new lead wanting a quote or an existing customer with a system issue, and whether any error light or shutdown message is showing, then books the site visit or service call onto your real calendar. The homeowner comparing three installers does not sit on hold while your team finishes today's install.
The calls solar installers miss
- The homeowner requesting quotes from three installers who books with whichever one answers first
- The existing customer whose system stopped producing power who wants an answer before the next bill arrives
- The referral call from a neighbor who saw a finished install and now wants a quote, left on hold until it goes to the next installer
What the agent does on every call
- 01Asks whether the caller is a new lead or an existing customer, and captures roof type, shading, and monthly bill range for new leads
- 02For existing systems, asks what the app or inverter display is showing before booking a service visit
- 03Books site visits and service calls onto your real calendar, spacing them the way your installers already route between jobs
You define what counts as urgent, for example a system that stopped producing entirely or a fault code you flag as safety related. Matching calls transfer live to whoever you designate instead of waiting for the next open service slot. Everything else, new quote requests and routine system questions, books normally with the details your team needs before the visit.
Callers are always told they are speaking with an AI assistant, on every call, in every industry.
Questions solar installers ask us
Can it tell a system outage from a routine billing question?
It applies the rules you set. During setup you define what counts as urgent, for example a full production stop or a specific fault code. Matching calls transfer live to your on-call number. The agent never diagnoses the system itself; it triages by your checklist and routes accordingly.
What if the caller asks what a system costs?
The agent says only what you approve, for example that pricing depends on roof size and energy usage, so a site visit or remote assessment is booked instead. It never invents a price or a payback estimate.
Does it handle new quote calls and existing customer service calls differently?
Yes, you tell it how to ask about each. A new lead gets qualifying questions about the property and usage; an existing customer gets asked about their system and any error indications, so both end up on your calendar as the right kind of appointment.
