SolarFax vs LongArm Assistant

SolarFax allows utility customers who also have solar to see how their energy usage habits and solar energy production combine to impact their utility charges. The software program also has a solar production monitoring component, which notifies the SolarFax monitoring team when a solar system has not pushed any power to the grid within a 24 hour period. Utility customers are notified when a potential solar production problem is detected. NOTE: This app is intended for existing SolarFax customers only.
