"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 just as he promised. 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!"

"The manager came out and did an energy audit and recommended a couple of different insulating alternatives.  They made an appointment to do the job about two weeks later, over a three day period.  They arrived on time and worked continuously all three days.  They were good (although not perfect) at keeping the house clean as they worked and the house seems to be very well insulated now.

"Brian was great and educated us on the existing solar we had and put together a plan for adding solar and giving us maximum solar production. He did all the leg work and had it done in record time. With the installation, we qualified for the tax credit. He even checks in to see how things a going after 2 years. Most importantly, you can trust him!!"

"Very well. The system produces slightly more electricity than promised by the contractor. The contractor is the cheapest in town, but they have most customer satisfaction according to my research and findings in Yelp. I bargained with the sales manager Dan, such that I get 25 years warranty for labor and materials on solar panels, inverter and racks. Dan also promised me that after you bargained them to the lowest price, then if you mention my name, Dr. Tien Cheng, he will also give you 25 year transferable warranty on labor, in addition to the 25 year transferable manufacturer warranty on all materials (solar panels, inverter(s) and roof racks. They are located at 4305 Dean Martin Dr., Las Vegas, NV 89103. Phone:702-586-9800. The address shown on Angie's list is good if you live in CA."

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

The best solar panels to withstand hail are those rated UL 61730. These solar panels are certified to withstand hailstones up to 3 inches in diameter and travel at speeds up to 88 mph. IP68 solar panels are the next most resilient solar panel. Solar panels without these ratings can handle hail up to 1 inch in diameter that travels up to 50 miles per hour. If you live in an area with frequent or severe hailstorms, purchasing UL 61730 solar panels is often worth the investment.

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.

Insurance companies aren’t against solar panels, but they may have concerns about the risks and costs of insuring solar. The type of policy, where you live, and the insurance company itself matter. Extreme weather can damage solar panels, and faulty installation or electrical malfunctions pose a fire risk—this, in turn, can increase insurance company liability and payouts. However, you’re likely to keep coverage as long as you have a pro install the solar system, keep it maintained, can pass a solar panel inspection, and update your homeowners policy to include solar.

Solar shingles and solar panels are not the same. While solar shingles use the same technology as traditional solar panels, they integrate with your existing roof. That means they are used to build your roof instead of simply resting on top of it. When comparing solar shingles and solar panels, it's helpful to know that solar shingles are more aesthetically pleasing than solar roof panels. They also do better in harsh weather due to limited uplift from strong winds.

In most states, solar installers need to be licensed and insured as solar professionals, although some states don’t have specific requirements for installers. You can use our state licensing tool to check if an installer you’re considering hiring holds the proper licensing. No matter where you live, a member of your solar panel installation company must be a certified electrician to connect your panels to your home and the electric grid.
