FAQs

Common Questions from Solar Installers Businesses

Do solar installers need commercial auto for crew vans?

Yes. Crew vans and trucks used to transport solar panels, equipment, and installation teams require commercial auto insurance.

Does commercial auto cover damage to solar panels in transit?

Solar panels being transported in your vehicles are typically covered by inland marine, not commercial auto. Commercial auto covers the vehicle and liability from accidents.

Can't I just use my personal auto policy for a work vehicle?

If a vehicle is primarily used for business, most personal auto policies will deny claims that arise from business use. Even vehicles that are also used personally should be covered under a commercial policy if they're regularly used for work. A licensed agent can help clarify where the line is.

What is hired and non-owned auto liability?

If your employees rent vehicles while traveling for work, or drive their personal cars for business errands, your business could be liable if an accident occurs. Hired and non-owned auto (HNOA) coverage fills that gap.
