Manchester homeowners were targeted by solar dealers during New Hampshire's clean energy push, with Sunrun and Freedom Forever running active door-to-door campaigns throughout Hillsborough County. New Hampshire's Consumer Protection Act and the FTC Cooling-Off Rule provide legal remedies for homeowners who were misled about savings, system performance, or financing terms.
Thousands of homeowners across Manchester signed solar contracts after being promised dramatic savings — only to find themselves locked into agreements with escalating payments, underperforming systems, and no clear exit. If you are one of them, you have legal options.
New Hampshire's Consumer Protection Act (RSA 358-A) prohibits unfair or deceptive acts in trade or commerce, including misrepresentation of solar savings, government incentives, and system performance. The FTC's 3-day Cooling-Off Rule applies to all door-to-door solar sales. New Hampshire's AG has received solar fraud complaints from the Manchester area, particularly regarding production misrepresentation during the winter months.
Manchester's high Eversource NH rates and New Hampshire's clean energy incentives made solar an attractive proposition. Dealers frequently failed to disclose the significant production losses that occur during New Hampshire's long winters, leading to savings projections that were wildly optimistic.
Most people have their solar canceled and still get to keep their equipment.
