THE HOMETREE PROCESS
One contract. One number to call. One home that works.
Off-grid living fails in the details. Our entire process is built around the details nobody else is watching.
WHY TURNKEY
Every decision has already been made.
When we quote you a package price, that number is the whole story. Here is why we can say that.
The home and the energy system are designed together
Our homes are manufactured to order through our partnership with a local reputable home builder. They build to our specification, so every appliance is matched to the solar, battery, and inverter system it will run on. The conversation where most off-grid builds go wrong is finished before your foundation is poured.
The trades are already coordinated
​Our contractors work as one team on one schedule. We install the energy system first, so when your home arrives, it ties into electrical infrastructure that already exists. No one waits on anyone. No one improvises around anyone.
The liability is ours, not yours
Most solar companies avoid off-grid work entirely. If they undersize a grid-tied system, your bill runs a little high. If they undersize an off-grid system, you have no power. We take that responsibility on because we have the experience.
Choosing your home comes down to budget and which floor plan you love. Sizing, appliances, load calculations, contractor sequencing — all of it is turnkey. That is the product.
THE MICRO-DECISIONS
The hundred small choices you never have to get right
Turnkey is not a slogan. It is the sum of decisions like these, each one already made and built into every package.
Heating runs on gas, not electric resistance
Electric heat strips can quietly double or triple a home's energy demand. We heat with gas and size the propane system accordingly, which keeps your battery bank and solar array at a sane, affordable scale.
ALREADY DECIDED
Inverter capacity is sized for real households
People do laundry while the dishwasher runs and the AC fights an August afternoon. We size inverter output for simultaneous loads, so normal life never trips your whole house offline.
ALREADY DECIDED
Every appliance is chosen to fit the system
Because our homes are built to order, no appliance arrives that the energy system was not designed for. Nothing gets ripped out. Nothing gets replaced. Nothing surprises you after move-in.
ALREADY DECIDED
Batteries are sized with margin, not to the minimum
We calculate what your home needs, then build in excess. Off-grid systems fail at the edges: the cold snap, the houseguests, the door left open with the heat running. Margin is what absorbs the edges.
ALREADY DECIDED
A whole-home generator stands behind everything
Solar is your first tier. Batteries are your second. A whole-home propane generator, AC-coupled into your inverters, is your third. If your batteries ever drop below 20 percent, the system starts the generator on its own and rapid-charges the bank back to full in about an hour.
TIER ONE
Solar
TIER TWO
Battery
TIER THREE
Generator
You could make a mistake that would strand another off-grid family in a winter storm, and the only evidence would be a notification on your phone.
ALREADY DECIDED
The system talks to you
Our monitoring apps tell you when solar production dips, when batteries discharge, and when the generator kicks on. "Why did the generator run last night?" is a question you investigate from your couch, not an emergency you discover in the dark.
ALREADY DECIDED
Even the land is a design decision
Undeveloped land in East Texas runs around $3,000 an acre. The same beauty with utilities already run to it costs closer to $15,000. Since your home makes its own power, you get to shop where everyone else cannot. Our realtor partner helps you find acreage suited for off-grid development, and we take no cut of that transaction.
ALREADY DECIDED
BUILT FOR PEACE OF MIND
One partner from first question to first quiet morning.
We remove the friction of calling separate contractors, suppliers, lenders, appliance consultants, and energy providers.
