Sun Into Savings for Chatham
Chatham Solar Pros is a solar PV specialist serving Ontario's top solar-irradiance county, fulfilled by The Hayter Group, with a track record across Southwestern Ontario's rooftops, barns, and rural ground-mount arrays.
We focus on what makes solar pay: a system sized to your real electricity usage, placed where it produces most, and net-metered so the credits from sunny hours offset your bills all year. For Chatham farm properties, that often means a ground-mount array on open land in one of the sunniest corners of the province.

Common Questions, Straight Answers
Costs, timing, warranties, and emergencies: we answer the questions we hear most often.
How does solar net metering work in Ontario?
With net metering, your solar panels send excess electricity to the grid during sunny hours and you receive a credit at your retail electricity rate. Those credits offset the power you pull from the grid at night or in winter. Over a year, a properly sized system can offset most or all of your electricity use.
Is Chatham a good area for solar?
Yes. Chatham co-leads Ontario in solar irradiance, so a panel here produces more than almost anywhere else in the province. Combine that sun with vast agricultural land suited to ground-mount arrays and you get one of the strongest solar markets in Ontario.
Should I choose a rooftop or a ground-mount solar array?
A rooftop array uses your existing roof and stays out of the way, while a ground-mount sits on your land and can be angled and oriented perfectly for maximum production, with easier snow clearing and maintenance. Chatham farm properties with open land are often ideal for a ground-mount.
How big a solar system do I need?
We size the system to your annual electricity usage, measured from a year of hydro bills, so that net-metered production offsets your consumption over the year. A free assessment looks at your usage, roof or land, shading, and goals to recommend the right size.
Can solar power my home or farm during an outage?
A standard grid-tied solar system shuts off when the grid goes down for safety. To keep running through an outage you add battery storage with an islanding inverter, which keeps your essentials powered. This is especially useful across Chatham's rural, outage-prone areas.
Can solar work for farms and rural properties?
Yes. Chatham farms are some of the best solar candidates in Ontario because of the open land for ground-mount arrays, large barn roofs, and meaningful electricity loads like grain drying, ventilation, and outbuildings that net metering can offset.
Does a solar system need much maintenance?
Very little. Solar panels have no moving parts, so maintenance is mostly occasional cleaning and an inverter check. We set up monitoring so you can see production at a glance and catch any issue early.
Do you serve areas outside of Chatham?
Yes. We serve Chatham and the surrounding Chatham communities including Wallaceburg, Ridgetown, Tilbury, Dresden, Blenheim, and Bothwell.
