Best Solar Panels in United States

My wife and I recently selected AZ Sun Services to install solar panels on our house. We also needed a new asphalt roof and an upgraded solar-ready 200 amp main electrical panel.

We had received quotes from 3 competing solar companies and 3 roofers. AZ Sun Services was able to meet all of our needs at a very affordable price. Their service is impeccable as well. AZ Sun Services is a small family owned business that has been in solar since 2012 (prior to that they were - and still are - an electrical service contractor). Their solar installers are NABCEP certified. AZ Sun Services uses the latest technology power inverters from SolarEdge, which includes online, real-time panel monitoring.

Best of all, 100% of the work - including a new roof, new electrical main, permitting, solar installation, and final APS meter installation - was completed in 4 weeks! An added bonus is a free aerial photo of the installed system via a drone mounted camera.

After sale service has also been excellent. John, Jason, Charlie, Joe, Mark and Terry treated us very well.

I have worked with Rich (sales person) in the past and had a great experience and came back to him again.  The installers did good, clean work and the system is up and running well.  Mike, the manager of customer support, does a nice walkthrough at the end and explains a lot of the ins and outs of the system and the monitoring.  Overall the company was good to work with and no major complaints.  I would recommend them for your solar needs.

After numerous phone calls and no show appointments to other roofing companies I was lucky to call Caliber.  From the initial phone call to the final tile nailed in place we have been more than pleased.  The communication, THE PRICE, the detail to make our roof 100 percent.   Thank you.

Out of all the solar contractors I interviewed, Aneva stood out as a honest, no pressure company that was up front on the sale and installation of our 8.8 kWh system.  They were easy to work with, on time and no surprises.  When I had questions about my system after the install, they were quick to get back to me with answers.  With a year of solar production, the system over produced more than projected.  A solid value and a good company to deal with.  Highly recommended.

Amazing customer service and technicians! Will definitely call for all electrical jobs!! Professional, respectful and honest!! Thank you, Firefly Electric :)

Extremely impressed with Dustin who installed my first set of lights in a windowless room. After seeing the difference they made, I called back and had 2 more installed and Devyn was just as professional. The photo in the room is only showing the light from 2-14" tubes. It was DARK - Zero Natural light! I highly recommend Arizona Home Daylight!

As an Architect I know the most important decision for any project is choosing the right contractor.  For our family home we choose Black Platinum Solar & Electric.

John & John & Toni Black, father and son & family, and their whole crew have been a pleasure to work with from first meeting on the roof - to our solar power activation. We designed the system based upon the economics: ROI.  Everything was on time and on budget, professionally done with direct personal attention to all details.  "On time" means actually working on your roof the minute they said - not just showing up to get ready. Answering my email at 4:30 AM - sure. Refreshingly there was never a sales pitch, no up-sell, and only 1 extra - at my request. Get what you pay for: no nonsense straight forward quality installation, not marketing, layers of administration, overhead etc.

While completely unnecessary, I was on our roof often observing the work just to learn. Pride of Workmanship personifies their business. They work with finesse, these guys love their work. They have an extensive construction background, so care was taken not to mess up other elements of the building.  And built to last - the old fashion way, earning their reputation every day on each job. There are many technical details in a solar installation from assuring roof penetrations are waterproof to the specs of the micro-circuitry and automated trouble shooting. In our case the software found issues with APS electric servicing the neighborhood and they got APS to fix it. With their reputation and connections they obtained the latest technology prior to anyone else. Their objective is to give you the best trouble free solar installation with the minimum disruption to your life, and delivering more than promised. On a Friday afternoon John finished the paperwork and submitted City inspection approval to APS and by the next Wednesday morning our system was up and live. I'm told this was a record for APS, but it wouldn't have happened if Black Platinum wasn't totally on top of all the details. There is considerable permitting and inspections in this process, and substantial (under appreciated)  value in getting this done right and expeditiously.

The Enphase micro-inverter system they use provide realtime internet monitoring of each solar panel as well as your whole system, shown as it is actually configured on your roof, with energy production and consumption over time so you alway know every day, month and year how your system is performing. So far we are producing more than we are consuming. For telling testimonials look for those reviews a year or later after installation.  I'll post one in a year to verify the ROI calculations.  

I've read so many of their 5-Star reviews online and can now vouch that they are not only credible but represent the standard of work of Black Platinum Solar.

Had 21 panels put on our roof a year ago.  Out of pocket costs = $15k.
Saved $1600 over the previous year APS bill, and we didn't own electric cars in 2013 (But bought 2 in 2014, as there was so much excess production during the day that we now don't have to pay for fuel for our daily driving).  The system will pay for itself in about 9 years (assuming power rates don't go up ((HA!)), and not even counting the fuel savings), and it will continue to produce power for more than 20 years.  Plus, because the solar panels are raised off the roof, the attic doesn't get nearly as hot, making the indoor temps much cooler in the summer.

I don't know what a ton of carbon dioxide looks like, but I know EXACTLY what $1600 looks like (and what I can do with the savings every year).

We discovered "Mr. Sunshine" (Michael) through several recommendations within our community. Before the Verrado Coffee shop closed he would give free seminars, which we attended, concerning the advantages of solar power. We had already spoken with a number of other popular providers, only to discover that they didn't "really" know all that they spoke of. Michael challenged many things that were told to us by the others & through additional research through Google and other resources, we found him to be the ONLY one that had ALL of the correct, up to date information that we needed to make our decision to go solar.

He promised us that it would be a "very casual, NO pressure" process, & that he wouldn't even ask us for our business at the end. He's a man of his word. We had to ask him "What do we need to do to get this started."

The recommendations he made have worked out as he said they would. The installation was as  clean & professional as we could hope for. The process took some time. (about 3 or 4 months) But that's what we were told to expect. We're VERY happy with our decision. Once you sit down with him, you'll quickly notice the extreme difference in what & how he "educates" you vs. the others "selling" to you.

I recently paid our July APS bill for a grand total of $22.63. Previous bills this year were always a credit.    

Would I recommend "Mr. Sunshine" to my friend & neighbors? ...Without hesitation! I already have!

I have an antifreeze (closed) solar water heater that was having some issues.  General solar came out and resolved my issue quicker and easier than I expected.  Turns out all I needed was a system recharge. Perhaps best of all, the cost was very reasonable.  
They did a good job of checking thoroughly for other possible issues, but also didn't make me feel like they were trying to push any unnecessary repairs on me.  They were attentive to making sure the job was done right.  Customer service was great and they explained in great detail what was going on, and were friendly but professional and knowledgeable.   Considering that my biggest complaint was that they were about 15 minutes late, it was a great visit.

Have worked with these guys to get solar for my home. Very professional and very knowledgeable. They also gave me a lower price than the other company that came and showed me what they had. They gave me a low 2.99 interest rate on my solar. I will recommend them to any and all my friends and family.

JUST IGNORED.  Went through their sales pitch, inspection, cutting holes in two places in my ceilings, patching ceiling holes, changing my APS plan from a savings plan to a regular plan---and months later, no installation, no calls, only several ENORMOUS BILLS from APS,

Thought I was kissing hugh electric bills goodby...not with Harmon.  Received the largest fall electric bills ever!  So much for following their instructions to drop my savings plan.

Called, asked what happened to my installation.  After employee looked around on her computer, she apologized and promised someone would call me shortly with an update on my installation.  No call.

Called back the next day, couldn't reach the person handling my account.  Well, it was 10 to noon, guess she sneaked out early for lunch.

Avoid these folks.

It's been a year since AEP installed our system. I'm sure glad they did because I'm paying only $35 on my APS bill for JUNE!!! Russ, the owner, conservatively estimated that my summer bill would be about $75 bucks with solar, which I was very excited about a year ago. Come to find out that he was way off. Paying $35 in June was a delightful surprise. Even my wife, who was skeptical, is glad that we invested in Solar. Since I financed this system, I decided to pay exactly what I would be paying without solar, but in 8 years, my loan will be paid off, and I will get to enjoy a much cheaper APS bill. If you live in AZ, I would highly recommend anyone to invest in solar panels because APS or SRP is only going to raise their rates. Solar is a great way to hedge against rising energy cost. There are may reputable solar companies in the valley. I would highly recommend giving Russ an opportunity to quote your system. He uses state-of-the-art solar panels that other competitors didn't use. Installation was very professional as well. They do not hire out their installers. They have their own dedicated installers who even painted the conduit tubes to match my house. Finally, please beware of using the solar companies that knock on your door to gain your business. Many of them are rip-offs. Go with a trust worthy company that has been around for a while.

I read the other reviews on yelp about Apollo Electric and Matt - decided to try them out. The other reviews are all spot on! I emailed Matt some photos of an electric car charger I had on Monday - when they are listed as closed. He responded very quickly same day and they came out the Tuesday afternoon and installed the required run back to the panel. It is rare to find true professionals these days. I will be using these guys again. Highly recommend.

Thanks a bunch Matt.

The most AWFUL EXPERIENCE..
They are there to sell you the system but after that your screwed... I had an issue with install that fried all my appliances now I cant cook nor do laundry and after over a week of exhausted phone calls and messages that were left unreturned they try and come back with $2700 to "patch" my appliances... I am asking for replacement as all of them were new and they would gladly take the money for the system but when you have an issue with the install your up shit creek..... DONT DO IT!!!! There are much better companies

Don't waste your time!  Choosing Titan solar is like playing Russian roulette. Your call, your risk!  If I could give them negative 10, I would.

I began communication with Titan solar on October 3rd. I learned very quickly that they cannot be reached by telephone.  I began the alternative, email communication.

1st email, "Hello. My inquiry is about my current solar panels, 17 of them. I'm having a new roof put on.  I need a company that works with Solar Edge. Is Solar Edge in your installing profile? If not, could you please recommend a company?"

The 5th email, "I'm not sure how it would work if we were not the original installers. Let me check with someone and get back to you about how we go about that."

7th email, "
I might be misunderstanding your question. Do you have an existing system already installed? Or are you inquiring about adding on to the existing system?"

11th email, Please see information below and let me know what you think.

It is not uncommon for us to assist customers in a situation like this.  Most commonly their original installer is no longer in business and they need the system removed so roof work can be completed and then we return afterward to reinstall the system.

This type of project is quoted at $quoted price per panel and this includes both the removal and reinstall in this price.  I saw it mentioned the homeowners system is 17 panels so this project would be a total of $quoted price.  If HO is interested in moving forward I can provide her an official written quote and work with her on scheduling the dates for the work.

12th and final email, "Yes, if you would, I would like a written proposal quote.

Thank you so much,"

October 10th and no further communication from them. No quote!!

NO means NO - not maybe! I cannot begin to tell you how frustrating and simply maddening my contact has been with this company. I called them to get a quote about going solar simply out of curiosity and to get some information about exploring the available options. Within minutes, I was strong-armed into signing a contract for a site visit. (I was told by the salesperson, Ken, not to even open or read the email until I had him on the phone, and then he pushed me to sign it. Thank god it included a cancellation clause!) Once I spoke to my husband about this, my husband wanted to cancel immediately. He did not want people on our roof without our being sure about our desire to go solar. Well, here is where the headache begins.....I sent three separate email to the salesperson to cancel the contract and the site visit. I needed to send three separate emails because the guy simply would not listen to me!! Finally, on the third email, sent on Friday morning, he agreed to my demands. You would think that it ends there, but it does not! On Monday afternoon, I get a call from a technician saying that he wants to do the site visit today, and then I called him back, and I sent him a text stating my request to cancel. Then, about 3 hours later, I receive an email from them saying that they will be out to my house soon, and then I respond to the email in writing, stating my request to cancel for a fifth time. Then, I get an automated response back with a number. (At this point, I have five separate requests to cancel - all in writing.) Then, I call, and for the SIXTH time, request that my site visit be cancelled. I think it may be cancelled now, or at least I hope so! But should it be that hard to cancel something? I don't think so.....

Please be forewarned about this company and its tactics. As an environmentalist and a person who support renewable energy solutions, it is sad that there is a company out there like this that pretends to be doing the right thing with such unethical business practices. I feel like the salesperson lied to me several times such as when he said he did not see my first email to cancel and when he told me I had to be on the phone with him before opening up the email that contained the contract. Then, after such duplicity, I could not get him to listen to me. Shame on you, Solar City! After this experience, I  would never want a long term relationship with this company as one needs with solar.
