What that looks like in Pasadena.
A PWP page does the work. It explains the utility’s current program terms, the interconnection steps at the city, and what a battery does for a PWP customer, and it names the Pasadena permit center as the permit office. The same page says how the landmark districts treat visible panel placement, because Bungalow Heaven owners will ask.
Shade is the Pasadena honesty test. A page that explains how you model shade from the city’s protected trees, when a smaller system on the one clear face beats a bigger one under canopy, and when a battery matters more than more panels, reads as expertise to owners who have been quoted fantasy numbers.
Hastings Ranch and Linda Vista are the easier roofs. Fifties ranch houses in the Ranch have broad, low-pitch comp roofs with open sky, and the hillside houses in Linda Vista and San Rafael have big south faces. A page for those neighborhoods, with a finished system pictured, reaches owners whose roofs were made for this.
