Detailed Profile

Halco has been a trusted home energy company in the Syracuse area for 42 years, and their solar division has become one of the most respected in upstate New York. Based in Liverpool, they bring an unusually broad perspective to solar installation, having spent decades working on HVAC, insulation, and building performance before adding solar to their services.

What earned Halco the top ranking in New York was their 4.9-star rating from 938 reviews, a volume that reflects genuine market dominance in the Central New York region. Their 42-year track record provides a level of brand recognition and trust that newer solar companies spend years trying to build.

The company is NABCEP certified and helps homeowners take full advantage of New York's strong solar incentive package, including the 25% state tax credit (up to $5,000), sales tax exemption, 15-year property tax exemption, and net metering. Their team is well-versed in the NY-Sun incentive program and walks customers through the full economic picture.

Halco's home performance background means they often identify energy efficiency improvements that complement a solar installation. By reducing overall electricity consumption first, they can right-size the solar array, which saves the homeowner money and produces a system that covers a larger percentage of their needs.

With a composite score of 73.8, Halco of Syracuse is our top-ranked solar company in New York for 2026.
