Get matched with top solar panel pros in Castaic, CA

"Extremely Happy!! I live in Northern CA. I obtained 4 bids from local solar installers and 7 from the EnergySage website. I had done extensive research regarding the ratings for solar panels, inverters, monitoring, etc. SunLux was the first to respond from EnergySage. Their bid was an unbelievably low price for the top of the line Panasonic 320 solar panels, Optimizer inverter and SolarEdge monitoring system. The price was 2/3 ($11K less) than what I had been quoted from 3 of the local companies. When those 3 companies contacted me to see if I wanted to sign a contract with them, they asked why my answer was no. When I told them the price and equipment included, they each said something was wrong and I wasnâ t getting what SunLux quotedâ ¦ it wasnâ t possible. SunLux also beat every other company from the EnergySage website. Because the price was so good, I increased the amount of panels I purchased from 25 to 27. I researched SunLuxâ s reviews and stability and felt comfortable to proceed. They traveled a very long way to install my system; Iâ m the furthest north they have ever been. The crew was great. All were very hard workers and got the job done. I just went online with my energy company towards the end of May 2019. Each of my June and July 2019 energy bills were only $23, which is mostly for the natural gas for the hot water heater. My heating/air is all electric. I am producing more than I using at this time. June and July of 2018 bills were $253 and $435 respectively, including the natural gas. My winter energy bills are very high also. I canâ t wait to see what the net result will be after a year."

"I was overall unimpressed with Payless but they did have some redeeming qualities, though it took a bit of work to get there.
When I first called, I was quoted a price over the phone of just under $1000 for the base cost of the until + installation, but was told that I should allow for a couple hundred dollars cushion for all the unforeseen circumstances of my particular home, which I was totally fine with.
The technician arrived on Saturday, Jan 9 and saw my setup.  He noted that he would have to replace the unit itself, the connections as there was corrosion, install an expansion tank so it would be up to code, etc.  When all was said and done, the price was nearly double at over $1800 for a complete install.  I know they work on commission, but I definitely felt like this was a bit of a bait and switch scenario.
This was much more than I expected to pay, especially based off the (under)bid I got on the phone.  However, when you haven't had hot water for a couple of days with small children int house, you don't have the time and convenience to comparison shop, so I opted to move forward since Payless had gotten decent reviews on Angies List.
When the work was done, I examined it and it looked okay and we did have hot water, but I did question the way he set up the connections.  And there was something else that seemed off, but not being a plumber, I couldn't put my finger on it.
The next day I called in a friend who is a plumber to take a look and within a second he saw the issue.  Even though my entire house was copper piping, the tech used galvanized pipe on the install.  
Considering how much money I had spent, I was upset that I got a technician who decides to maximize his profit by installing galvanized piping, knowing that it corrodes over time and really should only be used for gas.  
When I called the company to complain, I spoke with a person who said the manager would call me on Monday.  After not hearing from anyone, I called back myself and was directed to Chris who was less than friendly.  He told me that galvanized was up-to-code and I should have requested brass or copper fittings if that's what I wanted.  I felt like that was an unprofessional answer, as I was not a plumber and was paying for their expertise in this area.  And when I complained about the gap in price from the phone call to install, I was told "Well, you signed the contract.  Maybe next time read it before you sign." which was infuriating and unprofessional to say the least.
He finally agreed to swap out the fittings for me but said the same technician had to come back and do it.  I scheduled my appt for the next Saturday morning.
By that Saturday afternoon, he had still not shown up.  I called throughout the day to get a status and on this last call was told "He hasn't shown up for work today and we can't get a hold of him so we'll have to reschedule."
I had been home ALL DAY waiting for this tech, so I explained that wouldn't be acceptable as I just rearranged my entire Saturday and had I not been persistent in calling,  likely wouldn't have heard from anyone.  They called me back and told me another tech would come by today.
That tech came by and was clearly more experienced and knew what he was doing much more than the first tech.  He was pretty taken back that the other tech had used galvanized and not only swapped out the fittings, but redid the setup to be much cleaner.
So at the end of the day, I got a great heater and correct installation, but it took some time, effort and persistence to get there.  Normally, I would have been much more easy affable about the situation, but the way Chris spoke to me on a couple of occasions really made me feel unvalued as a customer, especially when trying to right a wrong that should have never been the case.
