BC Solar Makes Solar Installation More Accessible and Affordable for Columbus Homeowners

Columbus, OH – BC Solar, a Columbus-based leader in clean energy solutions, announced today the expansion of its solar installation services to meet growing demand for affordable and reliable home solar systems in Central Ohio. The company is increasing capacity, simplifying pricing, and working closely with homeowners to help them take full advantage of Ohio solar incentives and reduce their energy bills through sustainable, long-term solutions.

“We’ve seen a sharp rise in homeowners asking about solar in the last year,” said Brian Zaayer, founder and owner of BC Solar. “But what’s still missing in the market is an honest, local company that’s upfront about the real solar installation cost, guides people through their options, and sticks with them after the job is done. That’s where we come in.”

Local, Transparent Solar Panel Installation — No Pressure. No Surprises.

BC Solar stands apart from national chains and aggressive sales tactics. Every system is custom-built based on a full energy analysis of the home. There are no “cookie-cutter” kits, no outsourced labor, and no misleading financing offers.

Instead, BC Solar provides:

• Custom solar panel system design, engineered for each roof

• Transparent pricing with clear payback timelines

• Complete assistance with Ohio solar incentives and federal tax credits

• High-quality, professionally installed equipment

• Post-installation support and monitoring

“We believe in doing the right thing because it’s the right thing. That’s how we run our business,” said Zaayer. “We don’t promise free energy or magic savings. We give you the real numbers, the real impact, and the confidence that your system will perform for decades.”

Ohio Solar Incentives Make 2025 a Smart Year to Switch

Thanks to a combination of state and federal programs, homeowners in Columbus and throughout Ohio can now dramatically reduce the cost of going solar. The solar panel installation cost is now lower than ever, especially when paired with the federal Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which allows homeowners to deduct 30% of the total system cost from their federal taxes.

In addition, Ohio’s net metering rules mean that homeowners can send excess energy back to the grid for credit, further speeding up their return on investment.

As of 2025, most BC Solar residential customers are seeing average system paybacks in 7 to 10 years, with decades of free solar energy to follow.

Helping Homeowners Understand Solar Energy for Homes

While interest in solar energy for homes continues to rise, many homeowners still have questions:

• Will solar work on my roof?

• What’s the actual cost and savings?

• How do I get the tax credit?

• Who do I call if something breaks?

BC Solar provides answers, not sales pitches.

“Our first visit is always about education,” said Zaayer. “We walk you through everything, from your roof condition to your electrical usage to how the utility bill changes once you go solar. We’ll also model out different system sizes and payback timelines so you can decide what’s best for your budget and long-term goals.”
