I had solar panels installed by Stella Solar over 5 years ago. I am very happy with my purchase and they did an amazing job. They were professional and the install was quick. I’ve had no problems with the system and would highly recommend Stella Solar to anyone who is looking to install solar panels or solar products. (866) 787-6527.

Getting solar was the best investment EVER! It has already saved us so much money, and the entire process couldn’t have been smoother. Stellar Solar made everything super easy to understand, from start to finish. Erin was incredibly informative—she explained everything clearly and was always available to answer our questions. The installation process was quick and seamless, and we were constantly kept in the loop with updates, which we really appreciated. Plus, the tax credit is a huge bonus. We’re so glad that we made the switch—HIGHLY recommend Stellar Solar to anyone who is thinking about going solar!

It went exceptionally well from start to finish. Stellar Solar made the entire process easy and stress-free. They provided a detailed proposal, walked me through all my options, and answered every question I had with patience and clarity. No high-pressure sales tactics—just straightforward information and solid advice. Once I decided to move forward, the project stayed right on schedule. The crew was prompt, professional, and respectful of my property. They completed the installation quickly and left everything clean and tidy. All the permitting and inspections were handled without me having to lift a finger. Now that the system is running, it’s performing beautifully and already cutting down my utility costs. I really appreciate the follow-up from their team to make sure everything is running smoothly. Stellar Solar truly lives up to their name. Great service, great team, and great results. I highly recommend them to anyone thinking about going solar.

I was very pleased with the experience I had with Stellar Solar. They were extremely professional and managed the process every step of the way. Their pricing was competitive and their service was exceptional. I highly recommend Stellar Solar if you are considering solar for your home. I have seen huge savings already and look forward to the 30% tax credit I will receive this tax season.

I had a fantastic experience with Stellar Solar. Their entire team was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. The installation process was smooth, and my energy bills have significantly decreased. Erin was my representative and she was very communicative and made the whole process seamless. We recently moved and definitely will go with them again when we're ready for another system. I highly recommend Stella Solar for their excellent service and quality products!

I most highly recommend Stellar Solar! If you are going to go solar, then you should without a doubt go with Stellar Solar! Approximately 8 years ago, I decided on the wise move to have solar installed on my house (roof mount). My dad had gone with Stellar Solar a few years earlier (his was a raised ground mount) and my dad told me that I should go with Stellar Solar because they are the best. My dad's Stellar Solar system is still going strong 12 years out. However, I always want to do my own due diligence. I researched many, many different solar companies and I came to the same conclusion as my dad; Stellar Solar would be the best company to go with. Steller Solar was very responsive, got back to me quickly with all my questions, patiently explained the process to me, efficiently and seamlessly installed my solar system and did it at an extremely competitive price. You won't find a better solar company than Stellar Solar. Choose them and you will be very happy that you did. They are the best. Both my dad and I worked with Zac Dowell. He is fantastic. He's friendly, informative, professional and dedicated. You can reach Zac at 619.800.1786 or [email protected]

I highly recommend Stellar Solar. I met with representatives from five companies...and there are plenty more out there...and though most did a good job with their proposal, Zac Dowell of Stellar Solar did the best. He addressed my questions with his presentation, recommended the best panels in the market, a great roof layout, and the best price. Most importantly, Zac, Ismael, and the rest of the team answered the phone and returned calls/texts/emails within minutes before and after the sale, throughout installation, and all the way to final inspection. Their dedication to customer service is rare these days - most companies stop returning calls after they make the sale - not Stellar Solar. The purchase was financed over 10 years at a very low rate and the panels will produce way more electricity for the same monthly amount I have been paying SDG&E. The installation was seamless and aesthetically pleasing with low profile panels, non-visible pipes, sub-panel and monitoring equipment. The installation crew was very professional and friendly. They went out of their way to address all of my concerns. Like I said, there many solar companies out there, but Stellar Solar should be at the top of the list of companies to consider.

I started solar company research 4 years ago. I quickly canceled my research because all the companies ****** me off. It seemed like a complete scam/hustle. Then this year I started my research again. Solar power is too important, so I got back into the ring to, this time, pull the trigger and get it done. I have issues with getting the best quality at the best price. I got three quotes and then went full on into third party solar panel comparisons, all available for free online. I plugged in the exact panels each company was quoting me. SunPower was off ALL the charts in quality, production and warranty/lasting production. Absolutely, by far the best product. But that’s not my only criteria, I expect very good customer care. My salesman Marc got me dialed in and permits acquired with very little effort on my part. I had an old roof, and asked a roofing friend to quote me replacing prior to solar install. Except I prefer all warranty work under the same company, so I contacted Marc to see what Stellar could do. He matched the roofing cost AND upgraded the singles to “Cooling Series” for no additional cost. Sorry for such a long review, but the best is yet to come. The installation crew. Luis, Ken, Robert and Matt. So way above and beyond in every task. Painted all my vents to match the brand new metal trim they installed. Replaced dry rot wood panels, took care of my dog Bowser, cleaned up better than when they arrived, and were the most friendly, accommodating, efficient and fun crew I could ask for. Complete 24 panel system, with brand new roof, installed to perfection AND cleaned up in 5 days!! I’ve done your research for you. This company is your best option! Feel free to hit me up with any questions. This company is worth it!

I am very happy with my solar panels and my solar set-up. Dave Gersz and Mario and his crew were all very courtesy and professional. I interviewed several different solar companies and I was most impressed with the Stellar Solar Sunpower system and pleasantly surprised that they were on the low end of the estimates I received. Great team, great outcome.

Met with Dave Gersz at my home to learn about SunPower Panels. no pressure, just facts and how it would all progress should i move forward with Stellar Solar. of course after he left, i went down my own rabbit hole of internet research which only confirmed what he told me earlier in the day. Dave was there every step of the way, (before and after signing the contract) checking in and answering any questions i had. the install team: everyone was professional and friendly. it was obvious that aesthetics and the quality of the install were important to them...i particularly appreciated having the crew respect my home and have a sense of responsibility to get it right. we've been nonstop at this house since we moved in so i've been dealing with plenty of contractors, tradesmen etc, and these guys have been top notch...and quite frankly a breath of fresh air. once the panels were up, they scheduled the inspection and even though they told me it could be up to a week for SDGE to give us our Permission to Operate green light, i got mine the day after the inspection. everything was handled by them and i just had to field emails or phone calls to set up times i would be home, which was simple because i work from home. the onsite tech walked me through how to login/use the monitoring app and how to flip the breakers on once we received PTO. seamless, professional and simple. there's a lot of solar installers out there, which, if you're reading this review, you know. Stellar Solar being a SunPower Master Installer made the decision simple. i suppose it's a personal decision whether you want SunPower or Panasonic or LG or whatever panels. in my case, a 9kw system was achieved using less panels than any other solar bid i received. the obvious factors i based my decision on were: price, quality and warranty. efficiency was sort of important to me, but not a limiting factor. a 9kw system will produce the target numbers regardless if it's 26 panels or 30 that gets you there. quality and especially their warranty, easily brought SunPower to the top...which unfortunately also puts their price point into the 'premium' category. if you've come this far, my final suggestions is to really look into the specifics of the warranties on your bids: who will be answering the phone on the other end, and who will be responsible for fixing any issues you have with your system.

I had a fantastic experience with Stellar Solar. Connor always answered my calls and emails promptly and the on-site crew was terrific. I would definitely recommend Stellar Solar to anyone considering the installation of a solar system.

Stellar Solar replaced the communication module. It worked fine for a couple of months and now seems like it is not working. Called Jose and he said a tech would call the same day. I keep sending emails and leaving messages on his voicemail without any response. They just abandon their customer.

Smoothly. My sales rep was patient and not pushy, but willing to provide as much additional information as I needed. The installation team was friendly and efficient. The inspection rep was effective at working with the city inspector. All in all, good experience so far. Sunpower panels are not the cheapest, but they are reputed to be among the best, so expect to pay a bit more than elsewhere. I ended up paying about 6% more than the best deal I got for LG panels from a different reputable installer.

Beware. This is an updated review. The coordination and installation of my solar panels by Stellar was great. However, upon completion of the installation I was notified by SunPower and their finance division, Mosaic, that my loan had closed with a rate and term higher than Stellar represented to me. I was promised by Stellar that I would receive financing for 10 years at 2.99%. This was in writing and I have numerous correspondences with Stellar confirming the rate. All proposals and projections were done using this term and rate. Notwithstanding, once the installation was complete I received a statement from Mosaic that my financing was closed and that the rate was 3.99 at 20 years. I immediately contacted both SunPower and Mosaic and they presented an agreement from Docusign which they claimed I signed showing the higher rate. I showed them all of the documentation and emails about financing and while Stellar agreed that we had agreed to the lower term they could not figure out why documents issued by Mosaic were issued with different terms. Since Mosaic presented documentation with electronic signatures from DocuSign, which I do not remember signing, I was bound by the terms of the document. Seems like a classic bait and switch. Stellar has tried to work with me but Mosaic will have no part of it so I am stuck with a lawsuite. My recommendation is to find a dealer that will honor their word and also to stay away from SunPower and Mosaic Financing. They are simply the type of company that would rather play the legal card rather than honor the representations of their installers.

Answered a million email and phone messages we left promptly. Never bad mouthed other companies. The crew was professional. No foul language, respectful of our property. cleaned up everyday. Job was done in time frame quoted. Would recommend Stellar to anyone and would use again if needed. No roof leaks!

Everyone at Stellar Solar was professional, courteous and responsive. It initially seemed odd that you don't actually meet with someone during the sales process - but that turned out just fine - phone and e-mail conversations were adequate. Their information was the most thorough of the 4 contractors I interviewed and options were clearly lined out. The most important thing was their willingness to work with our demand that they coordinate with out roofer (new roof was installed 2013) to insure that our existing warranty was not compromised. That was no easy chore. Roofer specified certain stanchions and their staff to be onsite at the time of installation. Stellar had the most productive panels available which meant less roof space required. Mario on the install team was the most kind, patient and professional team leader I had ever met - and I have been working in property management for over 30 years. They also have the best financing option out there. My payments will be less than our monthly electrical portion of current bills. I'll be saving money from the start and avoiding SDG&E future rate hikes. Looking forward to running my A/C next summer to my heart's content.

From start to finish the process went smoothly.

Zac and his team did an exemplary job, from beginning to end. I heard of Stellar from a previous customer who I knew had very high standards, and her experience was warranted. I only received one other estimate, and Stellar's was comparable, with virtually no difference in cost. From beginning to end, Zac and his team spelled out every step that would take place in the process, how long it would take, if I needed to do something, and next steps. It was all done in easy to understand language. The team was professional, and the actual install only took a day. When it was time to show me the monitoring with SDG& E and the production of electricity, the gentleman went through it very detailed and clearly. I appreciate the time, attention, and professionalism from Zac and the entire Stellar Solar team. I would enthusiastically recommend them to anyone. 

I got five different estimates and Stellar's and one other were the best in terms of price and product.  Of the two companies, Stellar had the best financing package.  From start to finish, Connor Smith with Stellar was there every step in the process.  I signed the contract in 2015  and was told the installation could not take place for several weeks due to SDGE's backlog.  I also needed a new roof and I had my own roofing contractor so there was some coordination (and waiting on the weather to cooperate) that needed to be done. Stellar was professional and accommodating throughout the process.  Once they got approval from SDGE, the installation took no time at all and the Permission To Operate was received the day after the installation was completed.  The whole process was quick and painless.  So happy to be using solar power!

I could go on and on about what a great job they did, but suffice it to say this is one of the best companies I have ever dealt with. I was kept fully informed of the process by Mr. Mihelich, the salesperson, the various crews coming to our house were on time, polite, clean, and efficient.  In general, the project went way better than I would have ever expected.  I just can't say enough good things about Stellar Solar and Mark Mihelich who was not just a salesman, but stuck with us throughout the project.  In summation: Wow!  I wish I could use them again.
