"[Member Name Removed] its my understanding that you owe $140 from when we were there in December and have not paid. You have been asked to pay this and you have not. After we replaced the Micro inverter in November ,you have not paid for In December it was found You also had a bad panel. Both Sue and Rico have responded to you about the defective panel and that the manufacture has to replace it; they have been informed of the defective module. Furthermore no one "Quit". Chris ( your new side job buddy) was let go for steeling and doing side jobs on the company clock and with company materials ( we have him on video and several clients are witnesses about the side jobs/theft). It sound like you utilized his illegal services as well. Other employees have not shown up for reason related to Covid in one way or the other. no one "Quit". First remove this negative posting and we will consider doing more free work for you. We are short handed because of this thing called a "pandemic". I guess your not aware of it or don't care. I personally have been to your house on Sundays during the pandemic in November. Whats the deal [Member Name Removed]? Your warranty repair has been in f process since December. it is also false that you just spent $65,000 for work "completed 2/1/21". you were installed a good 15 years ago and we have consistently serviced you during this time; even during the pandemic only months ago.. How much illegal side work has Chris done for you? Maybe we she start posting on you Real Estate web site about your use of illegal contractors. You also have my personal email and have had it it for years. I have not heard a single one for you in many months certainly nothing about the panel replacement... Why?? because Rico has already responded. Whats the Deal? Pay your $140 you owe; remove this Bogus post and we can move forward once the manufacture sends use another module. You were also offered a used one and from what I was told you declined. Does Chris have anything to do with this crap?"
Adam Prokop did not show or call during appointment time. Got email next day that he had forgot. I understand that Mercury was busy. This indicated to me that Mercury is not able to meet the market demand. I passed on offer of rescheduling estimate and went with another provider
I invited other Solar companies to visit me besides Mercury, but being that what I really wanted (an off-grid system for some independence, preparedness issues for emergencies and by-pass HECO in a way), Mercury Solar seemed to have the substantial experience and certain personnel well trained in an off-grid system that I was looking for.
The salesperson that responded to my invitation to visit me, Adam P. is also one of Mercury's Out Back trained battery backed solar system personnel, which was helpful. I wanted to learn as much as I reasonably could about off-grid systems before I accepted Mercury's services and Adam helped me achieve that. Pictures, charts, diagrams, etc., as well as the verbal explanation of their off-grid (or grid tied) system is important to a potential consumer who is not aware of the jargon of the solar industry.
I put down a "good" rating for Responsiveness, Punctually and Professionalism, primarily due to the reality that in a tough economical environment (partly due to issues with HECO), that solar companies such as Mercury Solar may not have all the work force desired, and as such are forced to juggle their work force in a manner that does not always allow total focus on my (your) project. I was willing to work with this juggling, as long as my project reasonably moved along (which it did), then I would say the contractor did their due diligence on my project.
The work crews did well on their work and worked well with me to give me what and the quality I desired. I consider myself to be a somewhat picky customer being a (retired) designer/builder, who designed and built my own home. I was a former CSI, CCCA (Construction Specification Institute, Certified Construction Contract Administrator).
I would now say that the only future issues are warranties and service. So far both of these issues have been well handled.
I will add to these details in the future if needed.
I'm very satisfied with the whole experience with them. They explained how everything works and how the payoff happens.
Overall, I would definitely recommend Mercury solar to anyone that might be interested in solar panel installation
our provider Scott did a wonderful job briefing my wife and I on the many options and advantages of having solar. We had talked with others but we felt more comfortable with his presentation plus he was not pushy if we took a few days to think it over. He provided all the different solar configurations that would fit us better financially. We took a few days to think about it and when we had more questions Scott was always readily available. After 2 weeks we still were not sure so we called Scott again for questions and another visit to explain everything again, with out hesitation he gladly came back and went over the entire presentation until we were both satisfied. Within a couple of weeks Scott returned with the installation crew to install solar panels on our home which took only a few hours. We are now awaiting for HECO to give us the final go head to connect to the grid and start saving on our monthly bill, the cool thing is that if it takes too long for that to happen the solar company will pay us the amount we would be saving for up to 6 months. I am especially glad that it doesn't take us 20 years to pay off the installation, a year ago we installed solar for our hot water heater with the same company and we had great savings on our monthly bill. We are soo excited to see how this will work for us.
