Turn website visitors into qualified solar leads. Hayyat Apps Solar Lead Calculator adds a beautiful, multi-step solar estimator to any page. Visitors enter their address and energy usage; the tool analyzes their roof with Google’s Solar API and instantly shows a personalized recommendation — recommended system size, peak sun hours, annual production, roof suitability and a 30-year savings projection — capturing their name, email and phone as an encrypted lead along the way.
Built for solar companies, installers and lead-gen agencies who want more booked consultations without paying per lead.
Add it anywhere with one shortcode:
[hayyat-solar-calc]
Two result formats — you choose
Not every solar business wants to show pricing up front. This plugin ships with two results templates, switchable in one click:
- Feasibility only — shows the recommended system size, peak sun hours, annual production and roof suitability, with no pricing — perfect if you’d rather have prospects contact you for a quote.
- Size + savings — everything above plus the full financial story: estimated cost, federal tax credit, cash vs. financing, ROI/payback and an interactive 30-year „cost of energy over time” chart.
Why installers love it
- More leads, less friction — a guided, mobile-friendly wizard that feels effortless and converts.
- Real roof data — Google Solar API sun-hour analysis, with a safe fallback when satellite data isn’t available.
- Address autocomplete — fast Google Places search, proxied so your keys never appear in your page source.
- Encrypted leads — every lead’s email & phone are stored AES-256 encrypted at rest.
- Your leads, your data — browse leads in the dashboard, see every input and estimate, and export to CSV.
- Fully brandable — customize colors, fonts, layout, every label, error messages and even the image on each step.
- Show only what you want — hide or require any input (address, usage, rate, shading, battery, contact fields).
- Tune the numbers — edit cost per watt, tax credit, finance rate/term, utility rates and escalation to match your market.
- Theme-safe CSS — fully scoped so it never clashes with Astra, Divi, Elementor or any theme.
- CRM ready — request a done-for-you CRM integration right from the dashboard.
Privacy & security first
The plugin holds no Google API keys in its code. All Google Solar/Places work is proxied server-to-server, so keys are never exposed in the browser. Add your own Google Solar & Places keys on the API Settings page (stored encrypted) to run entirely on your own account with no daily limit — the built-in Setup Guide walks you through it, or email support@hayyatapps.com and we’ll set it up for you.
Free vs. Pro
The Free plan includes the full calculator, encrypted lead capture (first 5 leads fully visible), currency selection and the result-template choice. Pro unlocks colors/fonts/layout, custom step images, editable labels & error messages, show/hide & required controls for every input, editable savings assumptions, full lead visibility, CSV export, and removes the „Powered by” link.

GYIK
-
Do I need my own Google API keys?
-
You can try the calculator immediately using our shared keys, limited to 10 address and 10 solar lookups per day. For unlimited use, add your own free Google Solar & Places keys on the API Settings page — the built-in Setup Guide walks you through it.
-
Can I hide the pricing/savings?
-
Yes. Set the result template to Feasibility only and visitors see the recommended system size, sun hours, production and suitability — but no pricing — so they contact you for a quote.
-
Are my visitors’ details safe?
-
Yes. Email and phone are AES-256 encrypted at rest and only decrypted for the admin Leads screen. Your API keys are used server-side only and never exposed in your page source.
-
Can I choose which questions the calculator asks?
-
Yes. On the Inputs tab you can show/hide and require each field — address, energy usage, electricity rate, shading, battery and the contact fields.
-
How accurate are the estimates?
-
They use Google’s Solar API where available and a configurable sizing/savings model otherwise. They’re designed to set expectations and generate leads, not replace a professional assessment. Every financial assumption is adjustable (Pro).
-
Does it work with caching plugins?
-
Yes. All Google/calculation work runs via WordPress AJAX, so it works on cached pages.
