"I initially had reservations about the concept of installing solar panels, but I was keen on getting an estimate and seeking professional advice. That's when I met Arvin. He provided me with a comprehensive walkthrough, clearly outlining the advantages of having solar panels. The entire process was straightforward, with each step being well-explained, leaving no room for surprises or unexpected outcomes. Now, a little over 5 months since the installation, I'm enjoying the benefits as expected. I want to extend my gratitude to Arvin for his professionalism and responsiveness. He was always there to address any questions I had, both during and after the installation process. Thank you, Arvin!"

"I live "off the grid" so 100% of my electricity is from solar panels and battery storage. Recently my 21 year old system was starting to fail forcing me to continually run my generator. After researching and spending a large amount of time reading reviews online I contacted TARGET ELECTRIC & SOLAR for a quote. The next day they sent out an ELECTRICIAN to assess my needs and requirements. The following day I had a formal written quote. I had a few minor changes so they revised the quote. I told them I had an upcoming surgery scheduled so the timing was critical. I had just gone to Costco and loaded my freezer with over $300 in frozen food and that was going to melt down. The owner of Target Electric offered to let me put my food in his church/community centers freezers. I used my own church's freezers. Who does that? Target Electric laid out a three tier payment schedule and we got the project started. The components were shipped directly to my home and within a day or two the cre"

"Semper Solaris Battery Installation Review I hired Semper Solaris to design and install a battery system tailored to my home?s needs, and I provided them with all necessary data upfront. Unfortunately, their proposed solution was not engineered appropriately and failed to meet expectations (I found out afterwards, since I am a Radio/Radar engineer, not a solar power engineer). The installation designers wanted to place the batteries in an unsuitable/ridiculous location and used a system that unnecessarily rewired my power panels, creating significant electrical complications. (As an electrical engineer, I recognized these choices as poor practice). After installation, I had to resolve account and software issues directly with Tesla, only to learn that the system had been improperly sized. Semper Solaris did not deliver the professional expertise I relied on."

"Roberto Sanchez Solar System, I interviewed 4 solar panel companies and I chose NRG because Will was able to explain everything well. He answered all my questions to my complete satisfaction. Friendly and honest, Will made the sales process very smooth and personable. Tiffany helped and coordinated the project to make sure everything goes well. She always got back to my emails and phone calls promptly. Installers completed the solar panels when I was at work. Came home and he solar panels were on the roof. Definitely a nice install and quality work was delivered. Lisa helped out with the financing on the HVAC. She was patient and I believe got me a lower amount that before. Solar edge app is great to use and straight forward. Highly recommended company thanks NRG. I am excited to use my new solar system!"

"I started solar company research 4 years ago. I quickly canceled my research because all the companies pissed 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 is 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 have 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 could not be happier with OC Solar, they deserve all of the hype! i have worked with vinnie and the oc solar team for over 5 years and done many projects with their team. they are always on time, priced well, easy to work with, and the communication is excellent. itâ s hard to find good contractors, so when you find one, you have to tell people, and OC Solar is worth putting my name on the line for. we have had them install Tesla power walls for us, specifically the tesla power wall 3. they have installed panasonic and q cell panels for us and the installation quality is top of the line. highly recommend, 10/10. choose ur installer wisely, los angeles is not easy to work with, so i recommend a proven company like OC Solar"

"Workers came prepared with gloves and face masks. Very knowledgeable and quick workers. Fixed both solar and hot water heaters and pressure reducing valve. Pablo even went on roof to inspect my panels and noted missing flashing over roof penetration, assisting me to visually inspect the issue. Would highly recommend."

"I’m so excited today. Baker Electric is completing the installation of my Tesla battery which will connect to my solar system. The entire process has been seamless. From the very beginning I received informative emails from the office keeping me up to date about required permits, process needs and what to expect next. As luck would have it, I also received a call that the workers could come to my home a day earlier than I was promised and they asked if I wanted them to start early! I knew when to anticipate their arrival and what they would need to get started on the project. Before the workers began the installation of my battery, they reviewed what the two-day process would look like and when to expect my electricity to be turned off. As they worked, they kept the work area clean, reminding me where they were in the process, and when the electricity would be off. No matter how many questions I asked, they acted like responding to me was a priority and didn’t walk away unti"

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

Solar water heating systems are not one-size-fits-all. You'll likely work with a team of experts to get the job done—including solar panel installers, plumbers, and water heater installers. A specialist will help you decide if a passive or active system is best for your local weather, home layout, roof stability, and your budget.

Solar roofing shingles may qualify for significant federal tax incentives through programs like the Residential Clean Energy Credit, which offers up to 30% of installation costs through 2032. State and local governments often provide additional credits, and utility companies may offer further rebates or net metering programs, depending on the state. Just look into the qualification requirements beforehand because installation, documentation, and technical standards can impact eligibility. Consult the current guidelines and a tax professional to maximize available benefits.

Yes, a solar panel can power a TV without a battery, but only if the sun is shining and the panel is generating enough energy. Your solar panel and TV must have the same voltage, and you should install a charge controller and inverter between them so power surges don’t destroy your TV. To watch TV at night, in the early morning and late afternoon, and on cloudy days, your home must be tied to the power grid.

No, you cannot turn on a new solar system before inspection. The inspector checks that the system is correctly connected to the grid and that safety components and features are in place. This process prevents problems on the electrical grid and offers protection against fire in your home. 

Your local utility company may also require inspection documentation before you can connect to the grid. An inspection can ensure solar power efficiency and determine how you might increase it.

On average, a typical fridge uses 115 kWh per month. With eight hours of sunlight per day, a 100-watt solar panel can produce 30 kWh per month. This means you’ll need at least four dedicated panels to power the refrigerator with solar energy. Consult with a solar power specialist to get a more accurate estimate.
