Solar Installation in Downey, CA

Downey sits at the heart of the Gateway Cities region — a community with deep roots in innovation. As the birthplace of the Apollo space program, where NASA's Space Shuttle orbiters were built at the former Downey Studios, this city has always looked toward the future. Today, Downey homeowners are embracing that same pioneering spirit by switching to solar energy and taking control of their electricity costs.

With 286 sunny days per year and Southern California Edison's steadily rising rates, Downey is one of the best cities in the Gateway Cities for solar investment. Solar Center by Dura-Foam brings decades of California solar expertise to every neighborhood — from the classic mid-century ranch homes of North Downey to the diverse residential streets of South Downey and surrounding communities.

Downey's housing stock is ideal for solar. The city's signature ranch-style homes feature large, unobstructed rooftops that maximize panel placement and energy production. Combined with the flat terrain and open skies of the Gateway Cities corridor, Downey homeowners consistently see some of the strongest solar returns in the greater Los Angeles area.
