Dayton sits in the Miami Valley with older city lots, street trees, and a mix of bungalows, two-stories, and mid-century houses. AES Ohio is the usual electric utility on the bill.
Victorian, Craftsman, and 1940s–60s bungalows on tighter lots than the suburbs. Mostly asphalt shingles; some historic blocks still carry slate or tile that need a different conversation than a standard rack. Ice storms and freeze–thaw cycles wear flashing and shingles; snow sitting on a low plane changes winter production.
A consult leads with TPO / $0-down when a Dayton roof and AES Ohio bill qualify, and still covers a purchase path if you want to own the system.
Consult requests go to a professional solar consultant at owner@ateamcontractings.com.

Dayton solar basics: utility, net metering, permits
Electric utility: AES Ohio
AES Ohio publishes its own net metering and interconnection pages. Interconnection is approved before net metering starts.

Ohio net metering
Ohio net metering is set by Ohio Administrative Code 4901:1-10-28. PUCO says the generator must be on your own premises, interconnected to your electric utility, and intended primarily to offset part or all of your own use (up to 120%). Excess generation becomes a bill credit. You apply for interconnection with your utility first, then request its net metering tariff. Under the rule, a homeowner who hosts or leases third-party-owned equipment still counts as a customer-generator.
