HOAs and Solar in Texas: Know Your Rights
Texas law protects homeowners' right to install solar — within reasonable limits.
Texas Property Code Section 202.010 prohibits HOAs from banning solar panels outright. HOAs can impose reasonable aesthetic requirements but cannot effectively prevent installation.
In practice, most DFW HOAs approve modern solar designs without issue. Pure Solar DFW prepares HOA-ready packets that include panel layouts, equipment specifications, and elevation drawings.
