Episode 26 | Solar, Service & Second Chances Featuring Carrie Cappello of Marcor Solar

Описание: Solar isn’t “set it and forget it.” And in 2026, a lot of Long Island homeowners are learning that the hard way.

In this episode, I sit down with Carrie Cappello, Vice President of Solar Services at Marcor Solar, to break down the real-world side of solar ownership that nobody talks about enough: orphan systems, service gaps, and what happens when the company that installed your panels disappears. Carrie explains why Marcor has become the “foster mom” of solar on Long Island, stepping in to handle 30 to 50 service calls every week for homeowners who don’t know where to turn. 🎙️☀️

We get into the most common issues we see with second-generation solar homeowners, why a system designed for the previous owner may not match your family’s usage today, and how small lifestyle changes like adding an EV, a hot tub, dehumidifiers, or work-from-home habits can quietly spike your bill. Carrie also walks through the biggest risks homeowners face when the wrong contractor touches a system, including licensing and insurance exposure, warranty problems, and lease or loan consequences if the proper steps aren’t followed. We also cover PSEG time-of-use, why there’s no one-size-fits-all answer, and the simple weekly habit that can save you months of lost production.

Welcome to Episode 26 of Marcor Studios.
Because solar works best when it’s understood, monitored, and serviced the right way.
