Solar Optimum

They did a great job with my solar system. I had been in touch with Solar Optimum about a year ago to get a solar system, but due to some unexpected challenges on a personal level I had to put that on hold. When I reached out to them again three months ago, they remembered me and were ready to pick right up where we left. Everything went beautifully and without hiccups and my panels are performing perfectly.

Representative came was all sales. Didn’t even look at roof for any potential issues. Only looked at panel at my urging. We have an older electrical panel and I was concerned about any last minute costs and was told it would be only $1500, however, I noted I was concerned it would be much more expensive and didn’t want to sign until they told me all costs. Although I asked to be sent the proposal and financing options, I never received anything. I called office aft 4 days and they had the representative call me. When he did, he said I had to contact Edison for them to spot new panel location so they could tell me full price. I expected a turnkey process.

Solar Optimum is an incredible team of professionals and just overall good people! Everything single promise they had given us, they kept. They gave us genuine recommendations and advice no matter how many questions we had or how long we needed to think about decisions, and their installers did a fantastic job. every step of the way was timely and a good experience and our new solar system feels like a fresh start. We are beyond thrilled and highly recommend Solar optimum!

Great on responsiveness, time to completion, equipment and communication

I was hesitant on going solar for a while due to the cost since I knew I had some upgrades to complete at my home. I quickly found out that much of the cost had rebates and credits and that I could get to help lesson the cost. After meeting with some reps I was happy to pick Solar Optimum for the job. Their presentation was very professional and their rep was able to answer my questions without a pause. I felt he was well informed and that what I look for with any company I go with.

They provide the best service, equipment, and price

Hi Kristen, thank you so much for choosing Solar Optimum!

I wanted to write my review to relate my story to all the people asking me about my experience. I told everyone about the research I did when finding my solar company. I went through many finding out if they even covered my area. Once I found companies who did I looked at their products, Financing, options, warranties as well as their licencing. I sent out my info to about 4 companies who all sent in similar bids. In the end due to both materials and pricing I felt I got the best price and service from Solar Optimum.

Thank you for choosing us at Solar Optimum, Chris. Our service and prices are highly competitive-- two of many reasons why so many homeowners like you have selected us for your energy efficiency needs!

I spent so much time researching solar companies in Southern California. I looked at the big companies and the small ones, and I tried to compare them to each other based on price and warranties and of course reviews, and I wish I had found Solar Optimum sooner. I liked Sean and his attitude. He is true people- person, and I didn't feel like it was pure business for him, when we sat down to talk about which solution would be best for my home. When it came to the installation, the crew that came to set it up were all very polite and efficient. No harm was done to my property, the panels look great, and I am very pleased with how the project turned out.

We'll be sure to pass along the rave reviews you gave Sean and the rest of the crew, Brad. Thank you for your business!

It's been a few years since I got my solar system through Solar Optimum. I am now considering adding more panels, and I didn't have to think twice about who to call. Solar Optimum is the best there is! My system is perfectly, and I haven't had any problems in the 3+ years they've been on my house. When I called Solar Optimum to discuss adding more panels because my usage has gone up lately, they remembered me, which shows that they actually care about their customers. They gave me very fair quote, and just like last time, the process was quick and problem-free. I may even consider adding the Tesla battery soon too.

When you're ready for the Powerwall, Adena let us know. We have it in stock! Thank you for the review and choosing us.

I originally gave a three star review to Solar Optimum for not providing a personal visit to us to discuss our solar options. I received a call from Rainier from Solar Optimum to talk about our negative experience. I feel the customer service response warrants another positive star. Even though we did not go with them the reaching out to find out why really helped show they do care about their customers.

In connection to remodel project of our home, we contacted Solar Optimum to see if it would be possible (and that it would make financial sense) to add a solar system to the roof since we were already going to be doing construction. Mark was very helpful and walked us through everything we could expect with solar system and gave us recommendations based on what we wanted out of it. We definitely got the sense that Solar Optimum does NOT operate on a "one-size-fits-all" philosophy because they took our needs and wishes seriously when putting together our design and offer. Great company!!

Hi Maya, we agree that Mark incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about helping homeowners with their questions about solar. We appreciate your kind words and congrats on going solar!

Solar Optimum installed a complete solar system on our house. They did a great job, and we are very pleased with the outcome. Our contact person was very open and honest with us from the beginning about everything we could expect in terms of results, and they delivered a complete design and all our approvals very quickly. One of the main reasons why we chose Solar Optimum was because they only sell high- quality solar panels and work with the best manufactures. The installation went according to schedule. We love our system and service.

So happy to hear you were happy with the end results, Brad. And you're right about our equipment. We ONLY offer top-tier and high quality solar panels and inverters. Appreciate you choosing Solar Optimum.

My family recently grew and my bills grew along with them. That is why I started to try and cut my bills down. When I listed all my bills I found to try electrical was one of the highest. I tried changing lights but nothing seemed to help much. I then thought about getting solar as an option. I sent in my property information along with my usage to a few solar companies before deciding to meet with Solar Optimum. I was very pleased with the results and soon signed my contract with them. They started to install soon after checking my roof and soon had my solar turned on. I'm using the solar now and I have not had any serious issues.

Thank you for your review, German. And we appreciate you choosing Solar Optimum.

I was extremely happy with their workmanship, customer support and on time performance

I have just decided to go solar with Solar Optimum, so I have no experience yet with the installation process or results. I can offer my highest recommendation for the salesman who made the presentation, and the professionalism shown by Solar Optimum. The products are top flight, and are at competitive rates for both the product and the financing. We are excited to go solar with Solar Optimum!

Overall we were really happy with our experience with Solar Optimum. When I called them after finding them on Google, I was booked an appointment with one of their solar experts. Sean's presentation was educational and I felt very comfortable with him but I still wanted to meet with other solar contractors-- which I did. In the end, we called Sean back and moved forward. From the beginning, it has been a positive experience. He kept us up to date at all times. the installation was done in record speed and was turned on in no time. I have nothing but great things to say about Sean and the staff at Solar Optimum.

Responsive, dependable, friendly customer service and install teams

They were really straight forward and professional from start to finish.

Sales staff answered all my questions and very well informed of the product.

Awesome. Had panels installed last month, very happy. Our initial contact with Mark , response to questions and concerns quick. Staff respectful, honest, truthful. I feel that I can contact them even after installation. At one point we were off line on enphase monitoring, staff was helpful to get us back online in a timely manner. Its great that I have to ability to contact for issues.

Solar Optimum was great to work with when we first came across them four years ago. Back then, they installed our panels, and they have been working super great since then, saving us a lot money pear month. They were very helpful and remembered working with us. I recommended this company if you need a solar.

The reason I contacted Solar Optimum was because my coworker used them when he had solar installed on his home. He told me so many great things about them and his solar system, and I generally trust his opinion. It turns out he was right. I had the exact same experience he did: Nice, honest people who know everything there is to know about solar, and who helps you with everything you need. My panels look great, and they worked from day one. If you are looking for reliable, knowledgeable and honest solar company - go for Solar Optimum!

The entire experience with Solar Optimum was excellent. My Husband and I talked to a lot of companies, and they all gave us a proposal for our project. Our sales rep was extremely knowledgeable and made sure to focus on educating and informing us about solar. When the installers finally came on install day, they did a fantastic job cleaning up after themselves. I am more than happy with the results!.

Solar Optimum is THE BEST! And Sean deserves to get all the credit in the world for handling my case like a true pro. Something I experienced with everyone I came across at Solar Optimum. just a team of stand up people. Sean was the one helping me get my solar system. He's very knowledgeable and offered great prices. I highly recommended him if you want to get solar yourself. NO doubt I am calling Solar optimum if when I need the Tesla battery.

GEORGE IS GREAT SO FAR!!!! STILL IN THE PROCESS OF THE SITE-SURVEY-INSTALLTION.SO FAR SO GOOD.

I honestly feel like it was such a blessing to come across Solar Optimum. The whole process was seamless, and our agent was only a text or call away if we ever had any questions or concerns. He made sure we got all the permits we needed ( I wouldn't even know where to start ), and everything he promised - he over delivered. I can't say enough great things about Solar Optimum! I'm so happy with my choice! Ask for Marc (with C)!

After researching solar companies for more than 8 months, we finally landed on Solar Optimum, and we could not be happier. They are nothing but professional and always on time for appointments and are very good at answering all questions. We thought it was going to be a difficult experience because it is a big thing to invest in solar system and there are a lot of practical things that needs to be done, but Solar Optimum made it so easy for us. Now that our solar system has been installed we already see some savings on our bill.

Ivan P our sales rep was very helpful and attentive throughout the process from beginning to end. The installation technicians worked quickly and cleaned up after themselves. They made sure we were up and running. We are very pleased with the warranties. I have recommended Solar Optimum to many friends and family already.

I spoke to a rep over a week ago & she was going to email me some information by the following week. Still have not recieved it. Cant compare. In the mean time I have received 2 other quotes. Still interested in what they have to offer

I went straight to my laptop the second my solar system was turned on, because I wanted to make sure I wrote a review. I wanted to wait until the whole thing was done to make sure what I wrote was accurate, and now I can confidently say that Solar Optimum are AMAZING! From the very first phone call, Silva as been extremely patient and informative, and I never felt like all my questions was a burden. The process was great - no complaints. And while doing my research, I didn't find any other solar companies with the same warranties and great prices as Solar Optimum. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants solar on their home. Ask for Silva or Ivan, the energy sales rep.

Was always able to reach someone if I had a question, from quote all the way through installation and inspection.

Great panels and Even Better service. Least expensive in LA County

good service and follow up from start to finish of the project

The panels are working as we were told, which is great, but that is largely out-of-sight/out-of-mind, however, the service that we received was excellent and very noticeable!

Workmanship was fine; establishing the project had several major problems. I never had an estimator come out before the bid, so the proposed system was too big for my electrical. I ended up with fewer panels with less output for the same amount of money. Additionally, the information that I have a huge shade tree planted on one end of the house was not communicated, so now I will have to spend $1000 to move the tree if I want my panels to continue to run at full power.

My brother and his family had solar on their house for about 2 years now. I thought long and hard and decided Solar was a great idea since it had been saving him tons of money every month. I decided to look into the same company he used. I met with Mark at home and we discussed my options. He told me he had solar installed at his home and we discussed the perks. It was good to get an industry view but getting a solar owners view helped lock me in at the end. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

The Reason I decided to go solar was because in my rush to save gas by going electric I never considered the bills for charging my car at home. After a few months I looked into ways to help ease this burden. Solar was a great answer as it not only helped charge by EV cars but also provided the energy needed for my home. I am now twice efficient and currently saving more money than I thought was possible.

I started to look into solar because I was tired of using little of my appliances. I bought my AC so I can use it. So I found a way to make that possible. I met with some companies who offered similar system and similar pitches. I finally decided to go with Solar Optimum because I recognized the brands that were used, I felt comfortable with them and they answered a lot of my questions in great detail.

Honesty, integrity, quality service, and unparalleled roof-penetration warranty.

I had Solar Optimum install panels in my home. The team has been extremely helpful in getting my solar system, providing maintenance , and follow-up through the whole process. I feel safe and secure with my decision to go with them, especially with their 25 years warranty. I don't think anyone else can beat it.

After I began repairs to my house I discovered my roof was in bad need of a change. I learned through my friend who just purchased solar that it would be good idea to look into both since I could stand to gain some money back. I met with few companies before choosing Solar Optimum for the job. They had great service reviews and the thoroughness of their consultation left me feeling like I was in good hands. The install was smooth and completed within 2 months of my signing.

Professional and helpful Very friendly and honest

Price and engineering were great. Drawings and permitting a bit less so, but still fine.

We had a wonderful experience with them and our installation was complex given we had an older house that was not had up to code. They handled everything and were very professional.

Excellent service, project management and execution

I met with 3 or 4 other solar companies in the years before meeting with Solar Optimum. The previous companies's representatives all lied to me or tried to distort the benefits. Solar Optimum told me the truth. The system was installed properly, works as specified and my property was treated respectively. What more can anyone ask for?

Solar seemed more and more like a better idea living in California. I decided to see what it would cost to make the switch. In the end it cost me less per month to pay for having solar than paying my actual bills. The decision was made for me after meeting with Sean and finding out just how easy this would make my life. This system allow me to live comfortably without sacrificing my life style.

From my first contact with sales to my latest with maintenance and operations, the people have been exceptional. They all all polite, extremely knowledegeable and have a rare "can do" attitude.
