SunPower Dealer

As one of the leading residential SunPower dealers in California, SolarTech is able to deliver a high standard of service backed by the industry’s leading solar product manufacturer. All SolarTech systems are powered by SunPower’s high-efficiency solar panels, which consistently rank as the most energy-efficient on the market.

Also, because SolarTech operates under the SunPower name, all solar panel systems installed by the company come with SunPower’s 25-year Complete Confidence Guarantee, which covers the system’s physical components, power product, and labor for the first 25 years of operation. This means that if any aspect of the system is underperforming, defective, or damaged, SolarTech will work with you to correct the problem to your satisfaction.

Solar Energy Storage Solutions

In addition to industry-leading solar cells from SunPower and micro inverters from Enphase, SolarTech also provides a broad inventory of solar batteries and energy storage solutions as a way to further upgrade your system and improve its overall efficiency.

SolarTech is a certified Tesla Powerwall installer, and is also authorized to install energy storage devices from SunPower, NeoVolta, and sonnen — all designed to save the surplus energy the system produces for emergency or nighttime use, and further reduce the home’s dependency on the utility grid.

Multiple Financing Options

SolarTech offers customers an array of financing options that can be adapted to fit almost any budget or lifestyle:

• Cash purchase (the best value) —  Cash purchase is usually a one-time payment that qualifies homeowners for the Federal Solar Tax Credit; it also comes with the shortest payback period (typically five to seven years), and can increase home value.
• Zero-down solar financing (low monthly payments, with zero upfront) — Like direct purchase, solar loans qualify homeowners from federal tax credits, though the payback period can be up to 15 years or more, depending on the terms of the loan.
• Solar lease or PPA (least expensive option) — Solar leases and power purchase agreements (PPA) function as a rental agreement for the system and feature low, locked-in rates for up to 20 years. Customers have the option to purchase the system after the lease has expired, and are not required to pay for maintenance while the lease is active.

Suite of Repair Services

SolarTech also provides a suite of repair services to all solar users in its service area — regardless of whether they’re a current SolarTech customer. The company offers affordable inspection, repair, and cleaning services for either one-time purchase or as part of an annual package:

• Solar panel replacement or upgrade
• Inverter replacement or upgrade
• Monitoring system programming
• Other wiring or electrical issues
• Solar system repairs
• Solar power repairs

Additional Solar Products

SolarTech not only builds and installs industry-leading solar panel systems, but the company also provides solar pool heating and electric vehicle charging upgrades.

Services Limited to San Diego and Orange Counties

SolarTech’s solar installation, repair, and upgrade services are limited to San Diego and Orange Counties in Southern California. As these areas represent highly competitive residential solar markets, homeowners are encouraged to read the latest verified SolarTech reviews to see how the company’s services compare to other industry leaders.

Unclear NABCEP Status

SolarTech does not appear to hold a certification from the North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners (NACBEP), one of the solar industry’s leading certification programs for technicians. Companies with an NABCEP certification mark themselves as true experts committed to fair and transparent business practices and customer advocacy.

While the lack of a certification is no indictment for any company, it can sometimes factor into the decision-making process for homeowners comparing multiple companies.
