Step 1: Deposit  

Place a $500 deposit to get started. Tesla will contact you to learn more about your home energy needs and determine the right Powerwall system for you. 

Step 2: Home Energy Assessment

After you place your deposit, we will assess the best location for Powerwall and determine the appropriate supporting hardware. This can either be done over the phone, where we will guide you to take specific photos of your home energy equipment, or we can send an electrician to conduct an in-person site visit. 

Step 3: Review Powerwall Agreement

Your agreement, sent by email, includes your final hardware and installation pricing for your Powerwall system. A Tesla product specialist will call you to review the agreement and answer any questions. An email approval is all we need to move forward with your installation. 

Step 4: Schedule Installation

After you approve your agreement, a specialist will contact you to determine the best time to deliver and install your system. Installation and setup is performed by Tesla or by a Tesla Certified Installer.

Step 5: Installation

It takes less than a day to install Powerwall. You will need to be home to let the installation crew in and be available throughout the day. Your home will lose power for a minimum of four hours during the installation process. This should be one of the last times you have a power outage. 

Step 6: Download the App

Once the system is installed, you can download the Tesla mobile app to monitor your Powerwall and home energy use in real-time, anywhere.
