"I had Soltari install my solar panels and I’m really happy with how everything turned out. I was a little nervous going into it since I didn’t know much about the process, but they made it super easy to understand and handled everything. The team was professional, respectful, and just really easy to work with. They showed up when they said they would and made sure everything was done right. Now that it’s all up and running, I’m honestly so glad I decided to go with them. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking into solar 😊"

"I got multi quotes before choosing a company I was going to go with to install my solar I was worried about putting it on my roof and wanted to make sure I wouldn t have one of those large bills At the end of the year I ve heard the horror stories. Tyler and Mr. Sunshine Solar answered all my questions and always made themselves available I would definitely recommend working with them Their customer service is top notch and they stay apprised Of emerging solar technology. Their bid was significantly lower than the others and they were able to cover 100% of my utilities usage they explained Why people have those end of year bills and how they avoid that Though ensuring 100% Coverage It s been 13 months and I ve had no end-of-the-year bill Their system is awesome even though some of the brown outs I have had power because of my solar Which was a unforeseen benefit I would highly recommend Solar and Mr. sunshine."

"This company was a refreshing change from the high pressure salesmen who never visit your house and demand a deposit before they even do a survey.    The Poco salesman, Vern, came to our house and was the ONLY person (of 15 quotes) who actually went up on our roof to do a survey.   There were no high pressure sales pitches, just good old honest and comprehensive advice. 
Furthermore, we were having our roof replaced immediately prior to the installation of the solar panels.  None of the other providers were willing to work with our roofer but Poco suggested that they install the mounts on the roof before the tiles were laid without being prompted.  They were happy to work with our roofers and then to come back and do the solar installation once our roof was complete.
The installation went very well, they came when they said they would and the standard of work was excellent.   Their work was neat and tidy and they were only too willing to answer my numerous questions.
The only downside of this company is that the office is rather disorganised.   Phone calls to the office disappeared into a big black hole.  My advice is to get the cell number of your installer and work directly with him.   They are also very responsive to Emails. 
It is now 2 years on and my electricity bill for usage has gone from $250 per month to an average of $10.  We have had no issues with the system.

Solar Panels FAQs, answered by experts

In almost every case, solar panels need to be removed to replace roof shingles. In some cases, such as solar installations where the panels are on raised platforms above the roof surface, installers may be able to install new shingles without removing the solar installation. However, to get a quality roofing installation, panels need to come off. Most roofing contractors won’t remove or reinstall solar panels as part of a roofing project, so you’ll need to contact your solar provider.

There are a few great questions to ask a solar contractor or inspector when you speak to them. You’ll probably want to find out about the energy yield and efficiency of your array, ensuring the actual output matches the amount you calculated when installing the array in the first place. It’s also a good idea to find out about any damage or wear and tear on the array and to inquire about how soon you need to make repairs or replacements to essential components.

Ideally, you want to place them facing true south. This is different from what a compass shows, which is called the magnetic south. You can find true south by using an online calculator as long as you know the longitude and latitude of your property. Solar panel placement is key to maximizing the energy you generate, so this is an important step.

While you can minimally overshoot the number of solar panels you need for your home, it's not smart to go too far. Not only is the extra cost unnecessary, but your state may put caps on how much energy your home can produce and send back to the grid. It is always best to work with a solar energy professional to determine the best system size for you.

Solar panels can protect your roof from hail, as they can withstand hail up to 1 inch in diameter that falls up to 50 mph. Your solar panels may experience damage if the hailstones are bigger and travel faster. Your roof can still suffer hail damage, and it’s essential to look for signs and repair issues right away. Roof damage can lead to leaks and water damage inside your home.
