The Solar Guys was founded by John & Marilyn Teel in 2001 in response to the rapid demand for quality, innovative natural day lighting products, and Solatube was the obvious choice. Since 2001 The Solar Guys has grown from a small home based company to largest Solatube dealer in the United States. Our territory originally included Alachua, Marion, Citrus, Lake and Sumter counties. In 2010 The Solar Guys acquired the Orlando market as part of our service area. This included Volusia, Flagler, Seminole, Orange and Osceola counties. In 2012, The Solar Guys acquired exclusive marketing rights for the sale and installation of Huper Optik window film in Marion, Lake, and Sumter counties. In 2014 The Solar Guys started our insulation division initially offering water heater wraps and garage door insulation. This quickly grew to whole house radiant barrier and blown-in attic insulation. In 2015 Chris Teel acquired minority ownership once again reaffirming our belief of keeping the “family” in family business. Chris currently qualifies The Solar Guys with a Florida Certified Building Contractor License (CBC1260615), Certified Roofing Contractor License (CCC1330841), & Certified Solar License (CVC57042).

"I used Truly Nolan for my Termite Inspection when I purchased the home. They gave it the all clear. I hired them to do the pest control on my home and paid for the entire year. After that, I found drywood termites in the window seat and this year I found siginificant past termite damage in the walls of the master bath during a renovation. the walls and insulation had to be rebuilt. DON'T trust them with your most expensive investment! Since I had already paid for the whole year, I asked them to credit my account for the charge, and they refused. During the year, it routinely took 10 days for an in person treatment response, when pests were found, and they never eliminated silver fish, nor ghost ants (which became an infestation after 6 months, in spite of many calls for service on that front), nor Australian cockroaches. I have no pets and live alone, and keep an impressively cared-for home - which cars & walkers will regularly stop by to ask me & my visitors where I found the landscape accents, lighting, rocks, drain correction remedies, driveway treatment, walkway treatment, etc."

"Formal Complaint Against: Beacon Services and Appliance Heat & Air To Whom It May Concern, I am submitting this formal complaint regarding Beacon Services and Appliance Heat & Air, whom I hired to install a new air conditioning system, including a condenser and air handler, at my residence. Following the installation, I experienced cooling issues almost immediately—beginning the day after the system was put in. The company also collected approximately $500 in advance for two years of preventative maintenance service, which they repeatedly failed to deliver. Despite multiple requests, they rarely—if ever—performed the promised maintenance, apparently relying on me to initiate each contact and hoping I would eventually stop calling. Each time the system failed to cool properly, a technician was dispatched and performed the same temporary fix: they would adjust the drain line slightly (by lifting a PVC pipe roughly half an inch), which would re-engage the drain floats and the fan and temporarily restore cooling. For this, I was charged a $79 service fee each time, despite the fact that the underlying installation issue was never properly addressed. In September 2024, a technician visited and left the drain line completely disconnected, citing that he had to leave abruptly due to a personal emergency. He left tools behind at my property and did not complete the job. When I called the company to report this, a person identifying himself as “Dan” (possibly the owner) instructed me over the phone on how to reconnect the drain myself. Despite working out of my element in potentially unsafe conditions and following the instructions, the system continued to function improperly. Cooler weather came and the drain was not needed. Most recently, on May 8, 2025, I again contacted the company as the system was not cooling. A young technician arrived but appeared inexperienced and attempted the same drain line "adjustment trick." I witnessed this tactic firsthand and confronted him about it. I refused to pay the $79 service fee until the drain was properly repaired and the system restored to full function—an entirely reasonable request given the history and the amount I’ve already paid. In response, a representative named Chris (who claimed to be the owner or lead technician) informed me the next morning that because I had refused the payment and challenged the technician, they were terminating all service and would no longer respond to my calls or emails. Since then, I have been completely blocked from any further contact with the company. I have invested thousands of dollars into this HVAC system and was repeatedly misled, overcharged, and ultimately abandoned without a functioning unit or fulfillment of the prepaid maintenance agreement. In my view, this behavior demonstrates negligence, poor workmanship, and a pattern of deceptive business practices. I am requesting a full investigation into this company’s conduct and whether they remain in compliance with Florida HVAC installation standards and licensure requirements. I also ask that you determine whether disciplinary action is warranted and whether restitution should be pursued on my behalf. If you are thinking of having BEACON APPLIANCES HEATING AND AIR supply your air conditioning or appliance needs, I would suggest being very aware and watch them every second. Sincerely, KM"

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Insulating windows without plastic is usually the better method. Outside of simply replacing your windows, you could buy cellular shades, which trap air between the window and the home, add a window film that blocks UV rays and traps heat, or cover your windows with a low-emissivity coating called “low-E.”

The easiest way to cover your HVAC ducts during construction is to use painter’s tape to affix plastic sheets over your vents and air returns in the area of your home where construction will take place. Keep in mind that closing off a portion of your system can put strain on your blower motor and air handler, so either shut the zone off or shut your system off while construction is underway. If you shut the zone, you can also hang plastic sheets over doorways to separate the construction area and keep dust contained.

While carpet over carpet may provide some additional insulation and soundproofing benefits, it's not as effective as other methods. Layering carpets can add a modest buffer against noise and temperature fluctuations, but it's limited compared to installing thicker carpet padding or using specialized soundproofing materials. For optimal floor insulation and soundproofing, consider alternative solutions tailored to your specific needs and budget, such as adding additional padding or soundproofing underlayments beneath the carpet.

Yes. Proper, complete insulation will ensure that you trap the most cool or warm air inside your home, preventing high energy bills. In addition, insulation tends to settle and compress, leaving gaps over time; the more you insulate completely during the initial installation, the less you’ll need to do down the line.

Cellular shades, especially double- or triple-cell varieties, are the most insulating window treatments. Their honeycomb structure traps air in layered pockets, creating a thermal barrier that reduces heat loss in the winter and blocks heat gain in the summer. For even more insulation, look for side-tracked cellular shades that seal the edges to minimize air leaks.
