⚠ SOLAR CONTRACT TRAP — DALLAS, TX

CANCEL YOUR SOLAR CONTRACT
IN DALLAS, TX

Dallas is one of the fastest-growing solar markets in Texas — and one of the most complained-about. The DFW metro attracted dozens of solar sales companies between 2019 and 2023, many using aggressive door-to-door tactics and optimistic savings projections. Thousands of Dallas homeowners are now paying more for solar than they paid for electricity, with no clear way out. Texas law gives you more options than you think.

TX STATE LAW IS ON YOUR SIDE

Dallas homeowners are protected by the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA), one of the strongest consumer protection statutes in the country. The DTPA allows consumers to sue for false, misleading, or deceptive acts in any consumer transaction. Remedies include actual damages, up to three times actual damages for knowing violations, and attorney's fees. The FTC Cooling-Off Rule provides an additional layer of protection for contracts signed at your home. Texas courts have consistently applied these protections to solar contract disputes.

WHY SO MANY TX SOLAR CONTRACTS GO WRONG

Dallas's rapid suburban growth created ideal conditions for solar sales: new homeowners, high summer utility bills, and neighborhoods where one solar installation prompted neighbors to sign up. Sales companies capitalized on this by deploying large door-to-door teams with high-pressure closing tactics. The financing complexity — dealer fees, tax credit assumptions, escalator clauses — was rarely explained in full. By the time homeowners understood what they had signed, the 3-day cancellation window had long passed.

FTC 3-day right of rescission not honored at signing
Misrepresentation of projected energy savings
