ION Solar Reviews

Ion solar is a peace of mind because plus their free maintenance

Everything from the sales process to the design process to the installation process was done in a timely and professional manner! Ion communicated with us every step of the way as to what to expect and when! Could not be happier with how smoothly everything went! They also helped me to get our state and federal credits which helped reduce the total cost of the project! Also the solar unit has operated with absolutely no issues! HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company if you want things done right!

⸻ This company is fantastic—everything about the process was smooth and easy. They took their time at every step to ensure I was completely satisfied. I did extensive research and spoke with over four companies, and this team stood out. From the sales manager Kiel to the installation crew, everyone was top-notch. Kiel was especially impressive—easy to talk to, trustworthy, and genuinely helpful. And Troy made sure I understood the value, including the tax write-off, which really sealed the deal for me. Without him, I might not have moved forward

I recently had a solar system installed by IONSolar, and I'm thoroughly impressed with their service. From start to finish, the team demonstrated professionalism and efficiency. The customer service was top-notch, with quick responses and proactive updates that kept me well-informed throughout the process. They were always on top of tasks, ensuring that everything was handled smoothly. What really stands out is their attention to detail. They provided all the necessary information upfront, making the entire process transparent and easy to understand. Additionally, the mobile app is excellent – user-friendly and a great tool for monitoring the system’s performance. I highly recommend IONSolar for anyone looking to transition to solar energy. Their timely installation and outstanding support have made the entire experience exceptional. Kudos to the team for their hard work and dedication!

Ion contractors explained everything regarding solar, the science, and the financial benefits specific to my home in a simple way that we could understand. He wasn’t pushy or combative, was very understanding of my concerns and answered all of our questions in detail, and made us feel extremely comfortable. ION was excellent at handling all the permitting and back-end paperwork. It indeed was a turn-key process, and we were installed in about four weeks from the day we had our site survey. We’ve recommended ION to a few of our friends, and they are enjoying the same experience so far. Fantastic company in our experience.

The experience was great. It's a little quiet at first while the design part is happening but once it's done things start happening real quick. The installation was the biggest shocker. I have a two story steep pitched multi faceted roof with 16 panels they had to install. Start work by 8 and they left shortly after 12 noon. I couldn't believe they were done so fast. I didn't even have a disruption to my power even though they had to put in a new panel. Their installation is the cleanest looking installs you'll see. If you drive by and the solar panels look like they were part of the house design it's probably because it was done by them. The panels are some of the best you can get right now made in America and are almost 21% efficient. Those Chinese made solar panels have that ugly gray metal bands around the panel and throughout and it looks terrible. These are jet black and they look so good. I feel like I got my money worth which lately you just don't hear yourself saying anymore. Seriously if your thinking about Solar call these guys up they'll come to you give you all the details and info right on your couch and in a non pushy way. I guarantee after you understand the process you'll be asking like I did "where do I sign?"

Having worked for a company that makes solar and wind power equipment, I knew the many benefits to society and the environment that solar played. But it wasn't until I met up with ION Solar that I saw how beneficial solar power could be to me and my home. It was eye opening. I can't speak highly enough of the ION Solar team, they were friendly and professional all the way; they explained specifically how a solar system based on net metering could make my home a safe, energy-producing facility and increase the value of my home. ION was with me every step of the way and provided the resources to get approvals from our homeowners association, the City and State, and Duke Energy (our utility) as well as the installation of the system itself. I can now say I've gone solar, and I look forward to seeing the cost savings and benefits that come from the ION Solar system.

Just finished the process with ION Solar. It went well and no major hiccups occurred at all. It took a little longer than I initially expected but I am satisfied with the care and attention we received. It was very easy to work with Daniel B., our initial salesman and he was very upfront about how things work and did not feel like a salesman. He was polite and considerate of our time as we had at the moment of first meeting him gone through a very trying car accident. I definitely would recommend working with them if you have considered getting Solar and Dan will definitely get you taken care of.

When I agreed to meet with Ion Solar representative Robert A., I had no intent to purchase anytime soon and prepared for a pushy sales person. To my surprise Robert was very personable, knowledgeable and willing to answer any questions I had and provide any additional information needed. Robert spent close to three hours with me to which I admit had flown by and at the end had a signed contract and a new customer. In no time at all Ion Solar sent out people to draw up the design for my home and inspect that it would work correctly. After signing off on the design Ion Solar began the process of getting all the approvals and licenses needed to install and run the system. Before I knew it the install team was at my residence and getting the job done. The install took about four hours and looked perfect after they finished. The solar panels were all laid flush and the equipment all matched so there wasn't anything to really draw the eye to the roof. No wires were left showing and everything was tidy and sealed properly. The crew cleaned the area to leave it better than they found it and vacuumed the area were they made access into the attic. I downloaded the recommended app on my phone and was able to track everything going on during the process along with track my solar system after the installation. Anytime I called I was given prompt answers and Ion Solar kept me up to date on everything going on.

Thus far, I have been totally impressed with the professionalism of the ION staff. Communications between myself and ION have been timely and complete. As a mechanically inclined individual, I can tell whether or not a project is being installed properly (in my eyes). This installation is extremely "neat" and appears proper in every way. When the County inspector called me to schedule an appointment, he stated that he doubted that there would be any problems since it was an ION installation. He also stated that he has never found a single issues with an ION installation. That statement helps me sleep well at night as we have a very strict County Inspector's office here. I highly recommend ION and have already done so within my community. Neighbors have stopped in their cars and on foot to ask about ION. I tell them all I know and that ION is an impressive company to deal with.

From the first person who knocked on my door to the last call and text I recd this is by far the most organized company I've ever dealt with! They walked me thru every step PRIOR to me signing any contracts and once I signed they have been in touch every step in process. Now I'm all hooked up to dominion grid and doing good for planet and my electric bill plus added value to my home! So many in our Ocean Lakes neighborhood here in VA Beach are adding solar to their roof via ION Solar! Btw, if you decide to call them please say I sent you and I'll get a referral credit! I'm not getting paid to write this review I just want to spread the word this is def a company I'd do business with again!!

I’m a little confused about the”Questionable Marketing Practice”, I was offered a complimentary energy report to see if my home would qualify. When the Energy Consultant came to my home to go over and explain my report, I could not have been more impressed by the professionalism. At no time was I pressured in to doing anything. After seeing the potential savings, it only made sense for me to start the process. My Energy Consultant (Dean) stayed in touch with me and kept me up to date with the process before I asked the questions. I could not have had a better experience. Thanks Dean, and thank you ION!!

When I 1st heard about ION, someone visited my home which I typically consider a nuisance but I was already intrigued by going solar, they (a gentleman named Justin...sorry I do not know his last name...and Tyler P.) were extremely knowledgeable and you could tell ION cared enough to give them top notch education regarding Solar energy as well as their company. They were happy in their job with strong company values. I did my Solar research and found ION to be top notch and as impressive as they said within their industry so I chose them. My sales representative Eric F. was fabulous and also very knowledgeable, the entire team at ION stayed on top of my job consistently, I received emails and text messages keeping me posted on each step and even in between waiting periods they kept updating me on where we were at with permits, preparations, installation, electrician, and electric company approvals their permits. It really was an easy streamlined experience and I am up and running fabulously!

Like a lot of these sales experiences it did begin with a canvasser but he was a good kid and wasn't pushy. Frankly, nobody likes these but I'm not sure I would have gone through the process otherwise so it's hard to argue with the tactic especially in a new subdivision like ours. Brian met us and was prepared, thorough, and experienced. I'm a techy guy and he was able to explain the system and the process without fluffy sales tactics. The decision to go with solar is almost a separate decision from the integrator, that folks need to determine on their own but having trustworthy information from Brian helped me know whether the reality of owning a system was right for us. I determined we would be close enough to break even that being prepared for the inevitable power rate hikes made the timing right. Both Brian and Lorrente have a great grasp of the company's processes and used that knowledge to make everything smooth for me including things like getting HOA approval. It really required very little action from me overall and they were a pleasure to go through the process with. While it can take longer than some might expect it all makes perfect sense as you are dealing with the power provider, installation, certification, and inspection to ensure functionality, reliability, and safety. Installation team was effective, respectful and worked hard without complaint. We will certainly monitor the performance compared to the expectations that were set for us and update this review as appropriate but this team deserves a positive review for their performance thus far!

If you are looking into getting solar, look no further. I came to Ion after I was referred to them by my family and a neighbor who had just worked with them. I had already been doing my research into different companies around the Denver Metro and had my questions ready when I sat down with Clay P, their sale representative. Clay was knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. He walked us through the process, the specs, the satellite images, artistic renders and the pricing. We were not hard to convince and signed that day. The “wait period” was fast. From sign to install we were getting panels up in about 30 days. The install team was great. Arrived during their scheduled window and were very respectful of our property and time. Each step of the way the corporate office was calling and ensuring we were satisfied and informed. I would recommend Ion to anybody!

I would like to thank ION Solar for a great experience with our solar panel system installation. When we ran into a few issues everyone was responsive and helpful in fixing the problem. I would especially like to thank Nathaniel M for correcting our data uplink issue. He called us to let us know when he was coming out to our house, was on time, and followed up to be sure everything remained working. He answered my calls right away even after working hours and was patient with an “old guy” explaining how to go thru the the process of connecting to the APP via the WIFI etc. I would like to thank all of the ION Team for a job well done.

When told about ION, I was unsure about going Solar. Especially with so many scams. Carefully doing some research, I was going in with my eyes wide open. After carefully looking at my past electrical bills, I decided to sit down Jessica Gilden. Jessica G is a exceptional salesperson. I went into my meeting with them throwing fastballs, and they hit every ball. They hit a homerun. I'm glad that I've gone Solar. Every process was professional and well though threw. All questions and concerns has been dealt with right up to the end. Again, I just want to say, thank you for your patients and time. Larry and Diane C.

My experience with Ion Solar has been nothing but positive so far. The sales person I am dealing with (Jessica G) is very professional, knowledgeable, and very courteous. All applications and permits were submitted by Ion with little to no involvement by me. The installation of the panels and equipment was installed as scheduled, despite rain during the last part of the installation. The installers were all very polite and cleaned up after themselves. The city inspection was completed yesterday so I am currently waiting on the power company to come change my meter (final step). I look forward to having my panels up and running in a week or so.

We avoided solar salesmen for years because we didn't want to get pushed into something we'd regret. No regrets with ION Solar! They answered all of our (many) questions and walked us through what to expect at every step of installation, permitting, and activation. The ION service people were always on-time to scheduled appointments (no 'between the hours of 8am and 2pm' garbage) and very polite. They even vacuumed the inside of the house after getting in the attic and making a little mess with the insulation. I'm very pleased with how we are making energy now and I love watching our production on the ION App on my phone.

Great company and great experience all around. Our solar is up and running and harnessing the power of the sun to make our lives easier. The company was easy to work with, timely in their scheduled appointments, and communicated regularly with us to make sure the installation process went smoothly. The installation of the panels was done in a timely manner, however, the electric company took a long time installing the meter, but I will not fault Ion Solar for this, as that process was out of their hands. The quality of the product and their outstanding customer service would be two of their best qualities as a company. I would highly recommend going with Ion Solar if you are in the market for clean energy!

I held off for many years on having solar panels installed on my roof. Many solar panel salesmen came to my door but none of them had the kind of system that I was looking for. I wanted solar panels that are wired in parallel so that if one solar panel had an issue causing it to not provide energy properly, then the rest of the system will still produce energy. ION Solar had that system. The solar panels also report their energy production so that I can see it on line. I wanted a solar panel installation that looked good. I did not like seeing the silver conduit that went down from the solar panels and around the house to a large inverter, control box and a cut-off switch. ION Solar has an inverter attached to each solar panel and the output of the inverters is sent into the attic so that I cannot see the silver conduit. From the attic ION Solar sends the electricity through conduit under the eves of the house and under the eves of my garage so that it is less noticeable. Then ION Solar painted the conduit so that it matches the color of my house. On the side of my garage I have a solar controller box and an emergency cut-off box. That is it. That was appealing to me. Some solar companies offer ‘free solar panels’ and they will indeed install them for free but then there is a catch. There is either a lease, a loan or you pay for the power that the solar panels produce, called Power Purchase Agreement. Either way you look at it, these other schemes are more expensive in the long run than just purchasing them outright and with ION Solar I can get an interest rate of 3.99% do to that. The Federal Government is offering an Investment Tax Credit (ITC) that you can claim on your federal income taxes, which currently amounts to 26% of the total cost. DATE INVESTMENT TAX CREDIT 31 DEC 2019 30% January 2020 26% January 2021 22% 0% Should I decide to sell my house, the solar panels will increase the value of the house 3% to 4%, and the big plus is that the amount remaining on the installation loan can be transferred to the new owner of my house. Here in Nevada there is “Net Metering”. You can google that to understand it. DATE PURCHASE BACK RATE 15 June 2017 95% August 2018 88% 28 Jun 2019 81% Unknown Date 75% I went for ION Solar and I am proud of the solar panels that I own and the installation looks good. Paying back the cost is like purchasing a car. I don’t think that it is going to be that difficult.

I had often thought about going solar for some time but was hesitant to take the leap. A very persistent Jordan H made repeated visits until I was able to meet him based on my work schedule, he was great. He answered every question I threw at him and convinced me, showing me the location of my house, how much energy the solar panels would absorb and showed me the savings I would have compared to what I was currently paying my utility company. It was a real eye opener when he said, “Why should you pay to rent electricity? Why not own it?” Which if you think of it made sense. I own my home and would never lease a vehicle. He made sure I knew everything down to the smallest detail before any final decisions were made. There were many incentives that I qualified for which was also great. The friendliness of the staff and efficiency of the company has me informing co-workers and family members. Installation went smoothly and they were very professional. I had someone to answer questions every step of the way. ION so has been the best and very reliable. If you're debating it, don't wait any longer! I would highly recommend ION Solar if you are considering Solar for your home. Thank you ION Solar!

What a great job by ION SOLAR from the Energy Adviser Ivan V, he explained very well the product and the cost and allowing me to freeze my electrical production to a set price, for the next 20 years. As the energy production companies will keep raising their cost to produce power, but now my solar panels are making my energy and it is the same low price for 20 years or lease if I pay off early then my cost is $ nickel and dime. The system covers about 90% of the power I need, I am paying only 10%. My bill at $306 a month will be about $30.60 approximately. My Project Manager Ashlynn Reese keep in touch almost daily and walked me through each step. The installation team, was in and out, arrived at 8:30am and was completed by 5:30pm was very polite and professional and explained everything and a big plus the team cleaned up everything on the job site. The ION system looks great on my house and almost all the wires are inside the attic and the 5% that is outside was painted to match the house color. Very, Very impressed with ION employees a great team, and very happy with the ION Solar system great product.

My initial meetings with ION put them on the top. They went through the whole process showing the material used witch was great to research the products. Derin was the project manager and was in complete contact thru the whole process they also have an app for your mobile device to track the process, referrals etc. They did all the legwork with my city for permitting and meet with them on the inspection quick and simple turn on procedure when we received permission to operate. Once operating you get the Emphase software to monitor your system, its exciting to see it in action. Thank you ION

I just got my system turned on about a week ago. The whole process was very smooth and seamless. My advisor, Tom T, was very polite and patient for the initial consultation and provided answers to the many questions I had about solar and the company in general. My project manager, Cole T, was very helpful in keeping me up to date on the progress of my install. He made sure everything was completed as scheduled and followed up with me to make sure that I was happy with the work. I am very pleased with the installation and the time it took to complete. Total time was 2 months from consultation to system turn on.

I just activated my new Ion Solar system. I have been monitoring the system on my app for two days now. Everything is running perfectly and producing higher than estimated. The installation guys did a great job. Anything that that had to be installed on the outside of the House blends in well. Adam S was my project manager. He did a great job of explaining everything and keeping me informed of progress being made. The only negative thing I have to say is that it took almost 6 months from start to finish. Most of the reason being that I was informed half way through the process that they could fit more panels on my roof than originally forecast. I wanted all the panels I could fit so everything started over. I think it would have helped if they had sent the man who actually measured my roof out first instead of estimating from a satellite photo.

Just made decision to go with Ion Solar. Compared Ion with three other top companies. Quality hardware across all four and included other incentives. I'm buying system outright, so key points in my decision were quality of product, price, and technical knowledge of sales rep. In addition to being punctual, professional, and low pressure; had very strong technical knowledge of products and add-ons that set him apart from rest. Specific info on setting up emergency power system and alternative data transmission technology bypassing my internet service. He went above-and-beyond to research how inverter transmits data. Key selling point.

I would rate my experience with ION as excellent. From the beginning to the end process went very smoothly. My Team from salesperson Seth was very convincing about the value and benefits of going Solar with ION. My PM Cathie support was excellent and she ensure the whole process from Site survey to installation went smoothly and I experience no issues. She always responded to my emails or voice messages very promptly. She resolved my inquiries in a timely manner. The installation Team arrive on time like I was told which was a very important issue for me. The Installation ION Team were professional and very courteous. I would highly recommend the ION Team who did my installation, (Tyler , Travis , Ross, and Joseph ) to any of ION’s future customers. They deserve all the credit, very easy to communicate with and fast response. I appreciated the way the project was handled. I had full confidence in the Team and the work was spectacular. I would highly recommend ION solar to anyone seeking an American owned and operated company. Majority of the products used are made in the USA proudly. Thank you, ION, for everything and I will continue to get the word out!

I loved my Ion Solar experience. I am a full time student, work in a hospital part time and have another part time job. I am a very busy person and Ion solar understood that. They handle everything! I didn't have to call to find out about zoning or permits. I really didn't have to do anything at all after we first met and signed papers. I didn't even have to be the one home when they did everything, which would have been close to impossible. Everyone I did meet or email was so nice and every understanding. Not to mention they all worked very fast. I thought installation was going to take all day and those guys were in and out in like 2 hours and friendly the entire time. I would highly recommend them to everyone and have. Got a lot of my friends and family about to call them up.

We have completed the process through the engineering design phase, and have been happy with the results so far. Our sales person has been available at all times to return calls and bring prompt responses when he couldn't answer some of our questions, much more so than the other national solar company that pitched us. As with any contractor, the only measure you have of a company is the sales and installation team that works on your own project. After reading some of the negative reviews here it is apparent that those owners had some problems with specific people directly related to their specific project. Here in Denver, I have not experienced those issues. It would be good if ION directly responded to those with problems on these sites, as the old maxim is usually correct: "it's not the problem, but the solution, that defines a company's performance".

I've had my system for months and it's awesome to be making the world a little better everyday. I had a great experience with ION. They were great through the entire process. I see some reviews that are reporting that there are a few customers who feel that they are "double" paying for solar panels AND their electric bills. That's simply misleading and a misunderstanding. I receive a small bill for the solar system and a REALLY small electric bill. However, the amount that I actually pay out for electricity every month is actually much less now. I'm saving money AND I'm buying a CLEAN ENERGY power plant for my home. I've been a home repair and remodeler for years, and in my opinion, solar panels are about the best investment you can make in your home. Literally, your family gets a clean and safe power plant on the roof of your home that pays for itself. The Colorado "Net Metering" laws essentially mean that every watt of solar created by my system is sold back to my power company which eliminates my electric bill. It all evens out to be a basically free power system that will eventually be completely paid for in it's entirety by the power company through bill credits, not to mention the government's tax incentives. Other than the profitable aspects of solar, I feel like I'm making a real difference for my children and for our planet. Solar is the ONLY home system that can provide enough return on your investment to not only pay for itself, but eventually will make a monthly contribution to your budget by completely eliminating a power bill. Also, Keep in mind that electricity costs go UP over time so the watts that my system sells back to the power company become more and more valuable. Solar systems by ION are a no-brainer and electric power is going to continue to be a human need. In my humble opinion, Coloradans shouldn't let this opportunity pass us by. Make a difference to our world while still greatly raising the value of your home. Most of all. Let the power company pay for it through bill credits. We are ALL going to need solar eventually. Fossil fuels are going away.... There's only so much oil on Earth and we have already found most of it. Seriously. Look into it! Net metering is Colorado state law, so the utility companies have no choice but to comply. This means BIG rebates and incentives for us customers who are willing to make the switch to solar NOW. I found ION Solar to be a great place to get started with a great system. I'm enjoying these benefits myself every month, and I feel like a hero because I'm doing my part for our planet. This is one of those rare occasions when saving the planet is the profitable thing to do as WELL as the RIGHT thing to do.
