Icon Power designs and installs home solar and battery storage for Fountain Hills homeowners, from our headquarters in Tempe.
One accountable team handles your design, permits, installation and service.
Solar in Fountain Hills
For most Fountain Hills homeowners, yes. Long cooling seasons mean high summer bills, and Arizona still offers a state tax credit plus property and sales tax exemptions on solar. Because utilities now pay less for exported power, the best systems are sized to your own use and often paired with a battery.
Tax treatment varies. Consult a tax professional.
Your utility
Whether your home is on APS or SRP depends on the address, and each one credits exported solar differently.
APS credits exported solar at an export rate the Arizona Corporation Commission approves each year. The rate in place when you apply to connect is locked for 10 years. Most APS solar homes use a time-of-use plan, where a battery can cover the evening peak.
SRP credits energy you export at a rate it resets each May. For new solar customers on its E-16 and E-28 plans, that's 1.87 cents per kWh as of May 2026, well below what you pay for power. Solar you use at home, or store in a battery, is where the savings come from.
The logo on your electric bill tells you which utility you have. We confirm it, and the current export rate, before we design your system.
Export rates as published in October 2026. Rates change, so we confirm the current rate for your home in your quote.
Incentives
Fountain Hills homeowners get Arizona's state solar incentives. Here's what's still available in 2026.
Tax treatment varies. Consult a tax professional.
Claim 25% of the cost of a solar energy device on your home, up to $1,000, with Arizona Form 310. Unused credit can carry forward for up to five years.
Under A.R.S. §42-11054, solar on your home adds no value for property tax purposes, so your Maricopa County assessment doesn't go up.
Qualifying solar equipment and installation are exempt from Arizona's transaction privilege tax (A.R.S. §42-5061 and §42-5075).
The federal residential solar credit (Section 25D) ended for homeowner-purchased systems on December 31, 2025. If you'd rather not pay upfront, ask about our no-upfront-cost monthly battery program.
Battery storage
With lower export rates, the solar you store and use yourself is worth more than the solar you send back to the grid.
Run your home on stored solar during evening hours, when time-of-use rates are highest.
Keep essentials running during summer monsoon outages.
If your home is on SRP, the SRP Battery Partner program pays $55 per average kW in bill credits each summer and winter season for letting SRP draw on your battery during peak events.
How it works
We review your APS or SRP bills, roof and goals, then design a system sized to how your home actually uses power.
We handle Town of Fountain Hills permits, HOA architectural review and your utility interconnection application.
One accountable team installs your system and supports it after turn-on, working out of our Tempe headquarters.
After the inspection, your utility grants permission to operate (PTO), and we help you set up monitoring.
Service area
We work out of our Tempe headquarters and install across Fountain Hills and nearby communities.

See what our customers are saying
"I have to say that The Hydra Crew from Icon Power did an absolutely amazing job with our solar installation. They are very friendly and extremely hard workers with attention to detail... they made the magic happen. It's like artwork. They were very clean throughout the process and the product and service they provided is top notch."
"Jordan and his team made the process super easy. They reconfigured some of our existing solar and they added a Tesla battery so we could maximize our utility savings. They handled all the permits... If you are on the fence about solar or a battery — schedule a meeting and they will show you the numbers. You won't regret it."
"Icon showed up within a week with two technicians who were absolutely incredibly awesome!... Icon customer service were top notch and efficient in getting back to me within 24 hours... I am so impressed with Icon Solar that I cannot even express my gratitude... They get 10 stars!"
"This is the 4th solar system I have installed over the years, and Icon Power (Jordan especially) has been Excellent. They were fast, well communicated, instant to respond to any question... I have never experienced such a great install that was very quick, and their lease-to-own option was a great deal reducing the cost."
"Polite, Professional, Proficient. From the initial sales contact, complete with full explanation of time line/benefits/cost options to professional, rapid install to frequent timeline updates and onsite checkups, Icon Power provides you, the customer, with the care and attention that truly makes you a part of the entire project."
"It's unusual these days to work with someone who does great work, for a fair price and in a timely manner, but Icon Power does that and more. We needed them to install an EV charging station and couldn't be happier with the results."
"I have done many solar and other home projects in my life time, this by all means was clear, professional, swift and DONE. Definitely a five stars performance... Awesome work. Strongly recommended."
"Cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Ramone and the Hydra crew. Extremely conscientious, knowledgeable and dedicated. Making sure everything was done safely and accurately... We are much safer now than we were before they showed up. Again highly recommended. You will not go wrong."
"Icon Power was great to work with. Shawn and his crew were fabulous for the install. They ensured we had an install done right, the first time, and didn't have ugly silver conduit running across our roof... they worked with me and around my schedule and had us connected and ready for inspections and the PTO quickly!"
Answers on utilities, HOA approvals, batteries and incentives in Fountain Hills.
For most homeowners, yes. High summer cooling bills make solar a strong fit, and Arizona still offers a 25% state tax credit up to $1,000 plus property and sales tax exemptions. The best value comes from a system sized to your own use, often with a battery.
It depends on your address. Check the logo on your electric bill, and we'll confirm your utility and its current export rate before we design your system.
Arizona law doesn't let HOAs prohibit solar energy devices, though they can adopt reasonable rules on placement and appearance. We prepare and submit the architectural review paperwork for you.
You don't need one, but many homes benefit. A battery stores daytime solar for the evening peak, keeps essentials running during outages, and lets SRP customers earn bill credits through SRP Battery Partner.
Not for a system you buy. The federal residential solar credit (Section 25D) ended for homeowner-purchased systems on December 31, 2025. If your system was installed and operating by then, you claim it for the tax year it was placed in service. Arizona's 25% state credit, up to $1,000, still applies. Tax treatment varies. Consult a tax professional.
No. Arizona law exempts residential solar from property tax assessments, so adding solar doesn't raise your home's assessed value for tax purposes.
