  My husband was very interested in obtaining solar for our house in Louisville. I was very hesitant given the arrangements/permits/pricing that comes along with solar. Shelby helped ease us through the process. The initial call does seem scripted but it it to get to know you, your family and your wants and needs. The presentation was through zoom. Once we committed Shelby took care of our homeowners paperwork, zoning, electric company documents and stayed in contact with us the entire way. The guys who placed the panels and wiring were extremely respectful and helpful. Would absolutely recommend this company and Shelby to anyone who will listenshow more

  The sales team walked us through the process, answered all our questions and made sure we understood the pros and cons of a solar system (and its limits). They checked in with us every week till the installation was done (government permit process gets an F but not their fault). The install team was on time, and went right to work. They answered all our questions and were very friendly. They did not leave till it was all done and tested. They also cleaned up very nicelyshow more

  From the first call the experienced and helpful staff guided us through the process taking time to answer all of our questions. We never felt pressured to commit to anything. They kept us up to date through the entire process and were always easy to get ahold of if we had any further questions. I can't recommend this company highly enough! Andrew was super helpful. Solar is freedom really came through for usshow more

  Highly recommend! I thought getting solar panels would be expensive, but it's not! They're actually SAVING me money. If I could afford it, you can too! Quick, painless installation. Paper signing was over Zoom (it's 2020). My representative, Andrew gave me his phone number so I can call with questions or help any timeshow more

  They were fabulous. They analyzed the system, got it working and even got it set up for online monitoring. They were fabulous, easy to work worth. If you are thinking of installing solar they are great.

  If solar installation were an event in the 2016 Olympics, the team from SunWind Power Systems of Floyds Knobs, Ind., would win the gold medal. Granted, I’m not a real judge in the world’s biggest sports spectacle. To be honest, I have only a dim grasp of athletics. But I am very discriminating when it comes to hiring people to work on my home, and I know good work when I see it. Several months ago, after 10 years of dreaming about adding rooftop solar, I finally decided to go for it. A work colleague recommended Jeremy Coxon at SunWind, so I contacted Coxon to see if he would design and install a solar PV system for my 1,300-square foot, all-electric home. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Coxon and his associate, Trent Winlock, are exceptionally good at what they do. Coxon, an engineer, is a seasoned project manager who knows solar PV systems and out. Winlock is a talented, versatile craftsman and problem-solver. Both are hard workers who take professional standards to heart and who share a commitment to sustainable living. Unlike some companies that slap solar panels on the roof, collect their money and drive away, SunWind approached my project thoughtfully and strategically. They reviewed my annual power usage. They searched every nook and cranny of my house for air leaks, showing me where work was needed and prompting me to seal a crawlspace that had sucked out air for years. They used scientific data to determine where my panels would get maximum sun exposure. They even considered where to mount my inverter so it wouldn’t be an architectural eyesore. Then, and only then, they created a written plan for my approval, climbed atop my house themselves and made things happen. My 5,000 kW system began generating power in early May, and Duke Energy signed off on my net metering agreement soon after. Everything is working flawlessly. My most recent Duke bill (for usage May 17-June 16) was $3.45 compared to $92.95 for the same period last year. Hard to believe, but true. What’s more, SunWind made it possible for me to do something on an individual level to chip away at the problem of climate change. Every kilowatt hour I generate from the sun equals one less kilowatt hour generated by fossil fuels. That’s no small thing, and it gives me a wonderful feeling. If you’re thinking about adding solar, now or later, you’ll be hard-pressed to find anyone better than SunWind. Coxon and Winlock may not be actual Olympic athletes, but believe me when I say they will go the distance on your project, and you and the environment will be the winnersshow more

  We've been very pleased with the products and we were very pleased with the person who did the work. He was not a hard-sell person. He was not trying to sell us. He could have put up additional panels although I could not have afforded much more but he was honest about the fact that he felt like because of some shade that we had on a part of our roof that we would not get our money for it. He was very honest about things and pretty much has been accurate as far as how much it would be able to generate. He worked when the weather was not exactly at its best and I felt like he pretty much did everything by the book and was careful about not doing things that would be detrimental to our health in the process. There were times when he couldn't get out here when we wanted to but there were times he would get out here before we even expected him. We have encouraged people to use his servicesshow more

  Karim Kimble was our guy. He helped us as best he could. We are 27 panels installed. And yes our electric bill has gone down.

  When the salesman arrived, we determined that our house could actually utilize solar panels. So, we sat down to discuss the costs involved and potential return on investment. Or, so we thought. The salesman ended up giving us a long, drawn out presentation showing the history of the company and solar panel technology. He said that in some cases, electric bills can be taken down to zero or even go negative (meaning you are actually creating power). However, he was also clear that this is only the case with a certain number of panels and in certain situations. He also had us complete a questionnaire as to why we are interested in solar technology, which I can only now assume was his way of determining how best to bully us into buying them. At the end of this presentation, we finally were given an estimate of cost for the panels. (Around $30,000 for six panels). It has been long enough since we met with him that I cannot remember exactly, but I believe the time for return on investment given to us for 6 panels was between 15 and 20 years. (The electrical savings was minimal). We told him that was too much money to spend on our home for such a long time to return. He changed the amount of panels and added supposed "credits" to make it cheaper, but it was never something that was feasible for us. At this point, this man had been in our home for 3 hours. After being mentally drained from this long exchange, we felt pressured to buy something they were selling. So, we ended up purchasing the e-shield attic wrap, programmable thermostat, "custom" water heater blanket, and energy auditing system. I say "custom" because he described this water heater blanket as custom fit on site to our water heater and not "just a wrap like those other guys." Ends up, it's just a wrap taped down the front. The programmable thermostat and water heater blanket could have been bought just as easily at a home improvement store. The energy audit system is interesting to see how much energy you are using on a minute by minute basis, but the software is really useless unless you have solar panels. The e-shield was not very aesthetically installed, and I'm not exactly sure how we will determine if it is helping with heat control. We take sole responsibility for not being able to say no to this salesman. We were worn out during this process, and we are newer home owners, so we consider it a lesson learned. However, for anyone who is considering inviting this company into their home, they should be prepared to sacrifice their time as well as money. Start to finish, this person was in my home for 4 hours. I could have been educated about solar panels and given an estimate in less than 1 hour. I can only assume that their sales tactic is to wear you down until you finally buy something to get them to leave. It worked for this sucker; I wish everyone else better luck. *Also, for anyone who has had trouble with Gutter Magic, they are the same company. This was the first warning sign that I ignored as I had trouble with Gutter Magic in the pastshow more
