"Needed a sub panel and my entire garage wired(7 120 outlets, 2 240 outlets, and a floodlight put in). They showed up gave a quick run threw and they knocked it out Whole process was quick and easy. Great work at a great price! Would definitely recommend!"
"While I was very pleased with the design and installation process, the post-installation service is not responsive. One day after going live, the new Franklin WH battery system that was recommended started causing issues with production. They have been out twice to work on it, but only after multiple contacts and pleading. Currently, I have a $24K battery system I had to power down just to keep the solar system going. Unfortunately, they recommended (and I agreed) to install this cutting edge solution based on faulty manufacturer advice. Supposedly it is compatible with Enphase but in reality it is not, so it is not not their fault. I just wish there was as much energy put into getting the system operational as there seems to be with getting the system installed."

"We called Martin's Plumbing to put a new faucet on our kitchen sink. They showed up when they said they would and put it on, even though they were trying to catch up on work because of cold weather. We had a small leak under the sink for quite some time. Other plumbers said it was just the valve leaking and basically ignored it. When the Martin's were under the sink putting in the faucet they saw it and said the valve could be the problem and that it might be a crack in the plastic pipe leading up to the faucet. They replaced the valve and the pipe, no more leak. They had to spend more time than they had planned to install the kitchen faucet because of the other issues under the sink. Their plumbing skills, friendly attitude and effort to communicate and describe what they are doing and any potential problem areas is extremely refreshing. We certainly intend to call them first for any additional services we might need and would highly recommend them to anyone needing a plumber.

Solar panels have a life span between 10 and 40 years, depending on the type of panel. For example, monocrystalline panels can last up to 40 years, while thin-film ones only last between 10 and 20 years. The longevity also comes down to keeping up with solar panel repairs and their related costs .
You’ll need to make sure you have a big enough solar panel to meet your well pump’s power demands, but you can use solar power to fully operate your well pump. It’s also a good idea to have battery storage to hold the solar power so you can still use your well pump after dark.
The morning sun can be better for solar panels because it’s often brighter and clearer than the afternoon sun. The brighter the sun, the more energy solar panels produce. The strongest rays occur during midday, which tends to be prime time for solar energy generation. Most homes get a mix of morning and afternoon sunlight.
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.
