Use our Contract Document Generator to sign the Home Improvement Contract (HIC) with homeowners.
Shade Reports (Installers Only)
We recommend that installers maintain a dedicated Aurora company account to ensure that the shade reports uploaded to LightReach for approval accurately reflect the installed system.
Follow these steps:
Create Accurate Installed Design: Create a design in Aurora that reflects the installed system as shown in the install photos.
Export Necessary Reports: Export the shading report, irradiance, simulation settings, and monthly production numbers to upload to LightReach.
It's crucial that your install photos match this new Aurora design and its reports for successful approval for funding.
Important Notes
We only provide the Aurora Production Guarantee on the design request. Shade reports must be done by the company and its project manager to reflect the actual system installed.
