Best Businesses in Arizona

Working with Semper Solaris was a pleasure. Dennis walked us through all our options for the system. He made everything very understandable and let us know what to expect every step of the way. The rest of the Semper Solaris team also communicated very well and kept us updated on the project. They handled all the paperwork and made the entire process very simple.Thank you Dennis and the Semper Solaris team!

As a techie who is HVAC savvy, I was impressed when Dave the sales representative arrived at my house to do his estimate. He spent 3 hours taking measurements, crawling in the attic, and running tests. He was the only Rep out of the 3 estimates I received to take this much time and effort. Then he took all his data back to the office and crunched the numbers before returning with his estimate which was significantly higher than his competition. He recommended higher end equipment with a 10 year warranty on parts and labor.  We set an appointment for the following week and when the installers arrived, they went right to work putting down heavy runners to protect my carpet, and got straight to work removing my old equipment. The house was just beginning to cool down as my wife returned from work. The installers were both friendly and knowledgeable, and it was a joy having them in my house. Dave also made sure that I got the forms for the rebates from my electric company. They were terrific!

I was having trouble with pigeons nesting under my solar panels, really glad I eventually found this company. Tyler was very professional to deal with, carefully explained the different services he provided and their prices, and did excellent work getting rid of the birds, setting up barriers to prevent them from returning, and cleaning the panels. Would definitely recommend.

UPDATE:  Since my review I was contacted by Don and Nate.  They worked hard to get the breakers replaced and to get the system running. Our system was turned on 10/29/18 and they have had someone come out to pressure wash the paint off the pavers and reseal them.  They also contacted a company to replace the boards on the gate.  Alex at Nergy has gotten approval to have our first 2 solar loan payments reimbursed and Nate gave us a gift card for our troubles.   The install process went poorly but they picked it up and got it taken care of like a company should so I have raised their rating to 3 stars.

Cheetah's people were all courteous, friendly, helpful and patient with an old lady who had dumb questions. Although the process seemed to take forever, waiting for permits and inspections, etc., if I had any concerns, I was soon reassured. I have not had solar long enough to know of any savings, but I'm confident I will. I spoke to 3 solar companies and this one was the most informative and helpful which is why I chose them.

I talked to Shane on the phone and he got me set up with an appointment within 5 mins! Next thing you know they were at my house. This company has been helping save money and time, and i value both of those things!

I would love to give a minus but not able to.  If you are looking to get a solar system don't buy from this company.  They are a joke.  Their website says they have been in business for over 40 years yet they can't afford to do a job unless you put up 80% of the cost before they start.  There is something wrong with that picture.  Their salesman was very professional and represents the company very well but when the contract arrives that is another story.  Thankfully we did enough research to have another company to fall back on.  So by all means shop around and don't let this company rip you off.

Recently I had a solar energy system installed on my home in Scottsdale AZ.  I had debated whether to proceed with this investment for a number of years.  As I was planned to purchase my system, my greatest concern was whether the payback period justified the upfront cash outlay.  Over the years, I interviewed a number of solar contractors as to the optimum size and costs to satisfy my needs.  Over this  period,  I kept going back to Southface Solar Electric Company because I felt that they had an interest in me and were not just trying to sell me a solar system, .  They patiently answered all my questions and developed any number of different options based on various Kwh output and projected my return on investment. Southface offered the highest quality equipment available at a very competitive price .  Once I had finally decided to pull the trigger, they designed the entire system, submitted all of the needed documentation, worked closely with me to insure that my installation was completed on time and followed to insure it was operating to my sanctification.  .All of their personnel that I came in contact with were extremely professional.   I have no hesitation in recommending Southface to anyone interested in having a quality organization,, capable of providing first rate service, install your solar system.

Actually would not even give this business a star at all.  We wanted to install a solar system on our RV and starting in Nov. 2013 we consulted with Ron.  He was very informative, but opinionated, with his knowledge of solar installation.  He noted that he was an Interstate battery distributor and was not pleased that we wanted to order Crown batteries.  After multiple discussions, we came to an agreement with Ron in which he agreed to install our preferred components and set a date for the install for 18 Feb 2014.  This was not an easy decision due to the logistics of us living in San Diego, CA and Ron being located near Phoenix, AZ and the fact that we would have to bring the RV to his shop for the install.  After we had decided to hire him, planned the solar install, and even received a parts and labor estimate (essentially an online handshake),  we made one final phone call to finalize two of the parts that Ron did not normally use but that were a better price and had excellent reviews. Following the phone call this is the email we received from Ron:

"After our conversation yesterday I realized that you have been researching alot of information from people that think they know everything but just want to sell you equipment that you have no knowlege of how to use. And for that reason I cannot be the one to install a system on your RV.I have done over 8000 systems in 24 years and have never turned down anyone till now. Let whoever has been feeding you this information be the one to install it."

We tried to reach out to Ron via email asking him to reconsider and take our business but we have not received a reply back. Since we now know that he is not a man of his word, we would not give him our business or recommend him to any of our friends or family.

One final note.  We have been researching a quality RV solar install now for months and the people that had been advising us are experts in RV and off-grid solar and were NOT trying to sell us anything - they don't sell items or do installs anymore, just give advice.

I was expecting my electric bill to be cut in half and that has NOT been happening. My electric bills have not changed much since they installed the glass on my roof. I have reached out to technicians and they came and made some update and adjustments but still no change. I compare my monthly bills to what i was paying last year and it is not much different. I have reached out to see what else we can do to fix the issue and no one has contacted me since. Last year in July I paid roughly $496 in electric with no solar, this year with not much change in our lifestyle we pay $126 per month to pay off solar plus an additional $324 for going over what my solar is producing, how does this make any sense. I literally saved $46 with solar!!!! That's insane. Till this day I have not heard anything back from anyone else regarding my concern. I highly recommend not getting solar at this point. I mean for what???

Asked for a battery and was told I had to have an inspection to get one. I coordinated the inspection, and had to email twice for the report. No one explained it to me. No one answered my questions. I have emailed, called - nothing. Moving on to a better solution for me.

We were installing a new metal roof but before we could out solar panels for the pool needed to be removed. That is the only part of the project that went good.
Excuse after Excuse and than four months of no contact they finally finished in November.  I with held final payment just like they withheld communication and install for four months. Plan was to make them wait as long as I had to. They called, emailed and texted me daily, sometimes all three. My only downside was the first payment was on file so they just charged the final payment to the same card.
Do Not have anything to do with this company.
When you are only after the Greenbacks  you will lie, cheat and destroy,  it's a pity for their employees who just have a job to do. An attorney cost money which I do not have so I am using my right to free speech.

Nothing but a nightmare! We had our roof replaced and the solar panels removed and replaced by one of their approved contractors. Then the approved electrician came and hooked everything back up again. BUT NOTHING IS WORKING NOW! Is it Sunrun's fault, the contractor, the electrician? And probably the worst thing about Sunrun is that in customer service, NO ONE SPEAKS ENGLISH. Even that chat is by someone with extremely limited English skills.

Run from this company, they will lie, cheat and steal your money, that's what they're great at nothing else. Run Run Run and fast from them for your mental well being !!
