How to Cancel a Solar Contract in Arizona (2026 Guide)
Arizona's sunshine made it a top market for door-to-door solar, and a top source of complaints. In 2026 the state added new disclosure rules for solar contracts.
Your right to cancel in Arizona
- Arizona's home solicitation law generally gives you 3 business days to cancel a sale made at your home.
- The seller must tell you about your right to cancel in writing. Keep any cancellation notice you received with your contract.
Arizona solar rules to know
- Under SB 1419, effective June 19, 2026, solar and battery contracts must show warranties, pricing and payment schedules in bold type, initialed by the homeowner.
- Savings estimates must explain how they were calculated, including utility rates, assumed rate increases, expected production and export credits, with a warning that rates and incentives can change.
- Installers must assess whether your roof can support the system and get your written acknowledgment that roof work may require removing the panels. Contracts that don't comply can be invalidated.
- In 2025 the Arizona Attorney General reached a consent agreement with Sunrun and Vivint Solar over solar marketing and leasing practices, including $600,000 in consumer restitution. Sunrun did not admit wrongdoing.
Missed the deadline?
