LA Solar Group Reviews

Dear La Solar Group Team, I am writing to express my sincere satisfaction with the services provided by your company. After researching various options, I decided to choose La Solar Group primarily due to your extensive time in business, which instilled confidence in your reliability and expertise. I was very pleased with the overall service and the professionalism of your staff. Everyone I interacted with was helpful and courteous. I would certainly recommend La Solar Group to my family and friends. In fact, I was happy to refer my neighbor, who also signed up with your services, and I appreciate receiving the $500.00 referral check as part of your program. Thank you to David, Alex, KC, and Ara for their excellent work.

I got solar about a year and a half ago. I checked out 6-7 companies and did a lot of research on Energy Sage. I decided to go with LA Solar because of recommendations from several friends. Frankie G. was my contact and he's great. He is very professional and very responsive. I couldn't have been happier with them. My energy bill has basically gone to zero. I recommend LA Solar to all my friends and family. My brother-in-law just got a system installed late last year and he's super happy. Unfortunately this past December rats or squirrels got on my roof and chewed through some wiring. LA Solar was on-site the next day to assess the damage. Needless to say I was very upset. This was not covered under their warranty or home insurance. Frankie worked with me and we were able come up with a solution. I also got bird netting installed to prevent this in the future. This is a great company.

From my initial contact with LA Solar Group , they have far exceeded my expectations in both price and performance. My salesman (Austin T) was not only very knowledgeable in their product offerings but also came by frequently after the sale to make sure things were going as scheduled. While most competitors gave a three to five month timeline from signature to operation, LA Solor came in at just over three weeks. That included the many crews that worked hand and hand to keep everything seamless, start to finish. From the initial site surveyors, to the multiple installation crews, (each masters in their own tasks) were all professional, Covid-19 compliant, and kept me informed every step of the way. LA Solar also assigns a production manager (Emily) to oversee timeline adherence and in sending me instructional videos (via email) of what to expect throughout my solar install journey. Upper Management (Stan K) was also highly visible and communicative in making sure all of their employees involved in my project worked to my expectations and made sure promises made were kept. They all did, as I said, beyond my expectations. May Thanks to all (Austin, Stan and the owner of LA Solar Ara P) in helping me secure the rebates necessary to have a Tesla back up battery system added to my solar panels! My 27 Panasonic Solar panels provide all my electric needs in the day and the two Tesla batteries power it when the sun goes down. I could not be happier with LA Solar Group. I could go on and on but I appreciate you reading this long review. Get LA Solar!

I am extremely satisfied with all the interaction, installation, service and support provided to me by LA Solar Group. In 2015 I worked closely with the owner, Ara P, to install an array of LG panels and Solar Edge inverters on my 2 story condo unit. We maximized the energy generation given the roof area we had to work with, and the installation of the long conduit run to the PWP meter ended up virtually invisible to other condo owners on the site. It is physically an excellent installation, and its performance is meeting all my expectations. Since then, LA Solar has diligently monitored the system performance. They once notified me a panel was down and an inverter module needed to be replaced. That service was performed expeditiously and without any impact on my own time. I am now considering adding a Powerwall to the system and once again talking with LA Solar to supply the equipment and do the installation. Form my experience I highly recommend this company.

I decided to go solar with LA solar group after carefully analyzing all my quotes from different solar companies. First of all, their price was competitive. Also, it was very easy to communicate with them and to have answers to all my questions. The sales rep Frankie even gave me his direct phone number so I could contact him any time. The process of installation was pretty smooth, the crew showed up on time and did a very clean job. I’m happy with my decision to have solar panels on my roof and to do it with LA Solar Group. Big thanks to my sales rep and the crew for the excellent work. Thank you!

LA Solar group installed our solar panels more than 2 years ago and we are still so happy with the whole experience. They took care of everything, including all city permits and connection to our electric company. The process was easy and our electric bill is now only about $25 most months. This is compared to as much as $500/month in the summer here in souther California. After our tax rebates, the total cost was about $21,000 for enough panels to cover our needs in a 3000 square foot home. It will pay for itself in a total of about 6 years. AND it is good for the environment. We bought an older home with some older appliances and I didn't want to be running them on fossil fuels. Their customer service is amazing. That is so important when you are making a big purchase like this.

I made the decision to go solar fairly late in the year, and LA Solar group were fantastic in working quickly to ensure everything was done in time to get me full credit for the tax year. From design, to permitting, to install - they took care of it all, and ON SCHEDULE! Its been 2 years since my install - the system continues to perform perfectly. I haven't had an electric bill of any significance (can't get rid of taxes and & fees - but no usage charges) during these 2 years. LA Solar is also great with the ongoing monitoring of my system, and reaching out periodically to ensure everything is up to my satisfaction. I can't recommend them enough!

LA Solar completed my install with 30 Panasonic 330 Watt panels. They upgraded my electric panel to a 200 amp panel. They did all the stucco repairs and left everything in perfect condition. They picked up and they take all trash - nothing goes in my trash cans. They have electrical specialist, roof specialist and panel specialist that all know exactly what to do. They get it right the first time. I went with a SolarEdge solution which includes monitoring which I get on my iPhone. The inverter I had installed in the garage. Everything is first class. Took two days for the install. Everything is permitted. In fact, the City of Irvine inspector came out onsite for inspection and knows these guys really well.

Great company with excellent customer service and they keep their promises!!! They guaranteed our installation in 60 days or they pay my electric bill!! Also, they guaranteed our performance as written in our agreement or they pay the difference. Solar manufacturer we chose was SUNPOWER and ewe are happy we did because they back up the warranty with direct Sunpower replacement, removal and shipping all at no cost to us. Our representative Mark was extremely knowledgable and got us the best price available and beat the other company by 5 per cent. I reccomend them to anyone looking to get Solar.

After doing my homework for two months reading solar panel blogs and websites, I chose LA Solar Group to buy and install the solar system for my home. I received several estimates from other companies. The LA Solar Group Sales representative was very informative and did not pressure me in making a purchase. LA Solar Group provided me several options based upon my needs and budget. After studying the solar panel blogs on the Internet I knew the about latest solar panel technologies and the average purchase costs of various solar panels. I selected LA Solar Group's proposal which had a solar system with the latest technologies at below the average market cost! Once I signed the contract, LA Solar Group did not hesitate to start the installation process. Two days after the city approved the plans the solar system was installed on the roof. There were no delays during the solar installation process that was contributed to LA Solar Group. The City Inspector even commented on how nicely done the installation was accomplished. LA Solar Group's team kept me informed at all steps of the installation process. The solar system has been operating for about 6 weeks now and I have no regrets going with LA Solar Group.

LA Solar group has installed my system and I am very happy. There were a few communication issues at the beginning but Ara stepped in and helped finish up my quote. I had a very straight forward install- its a newer home built in 2013 and I had no existing electrical issues. I opted for the LG 275 watt panels with one inverter and a 6.9 kw system. With this system, I am predicted to just about break even on usage during the year. I am expecting a child and will eventually purchase an electric car so I wanted to allow for a little more usage. My average bill was about $225 with most of my usage in the summer and at night. I live in the IE and run the AC 24/7 in the summer especially when we sleep. The price Ara gave me was stellar. I priced this particular system out with Solar City, Sungevity, Mohr Power solar in Corona and a self install (where you buy the panels and hire an electrician). I was impressed with the communication of Solar City and Sungevity. In fact, Sungevity had a good price but still, LA Solar Group was amazing. I can definitely say that Solar City was by FAR the most expensive. Great sales tactics, excellent follow through, very personable sales people- but you are getting hosed in the end. My same system with Solar City was 2.3 times more expensive. The install went smooth. From start to finish I think it was about 1.5 months. We had a two week delay because of Rancho Cucamonga city inspectors that would flake on inspections. Not LA Solars fault. Most of the time is spent with permits and inspections. The actual install took two days, then another few days after that an few inspections and tidy up work done by LA Solar. The workers never needed access to the inside of my home. I don't have attic access for the panels. They were quiet, clean and organized. All were professional. They painted the conduit to match the home. One particular day it was in the 40's and wind was blowing 15 mph. Said it was pretty rough on the roof but they were troopers. Got it done. Now that it is up and running I can monitor the system from my iPhone or a computer. It works for the most part. There have been a few days where the live monitoring software will show zero production during the day (when the sun is out), but when the day ends the system actually did record all the production. So the system works, just sometimes the software won't show "live" production. Probably just a glitch and really not that big of a deal. The one thing I would recommend to them would be to assign a central project manager to assist with questions and communication on the project. Throughout I got calls/emails from Ara and several other people. At one point I did have a gentleman state he was my project manager but soon after Ara stepped back in. Everyone was very nice and ultimately helped very quickly, but its just nice to have one person to be able to go to. They could streamline all of this with a weekly recap email, maybe even auto generated.

L.A.Solar Group came to our attention through a company that is leasing our desert property for their solar farm. We were especially interested in a specific solar panel recommended by the company. Ara came to our house for a presentation on the company, moving to solar and what to expect. His presentation was very thorough and his product excellent. Once L.A. Solar completed the paper work with the city, the installation began. The crew was quick with the install. They welcomed our questions as they worked and allowed us to photograph the installation process. The system works great! We have had 2 minor repairs...a roof tile repair and a temperature sensor. Both repairs were completed within a day of our call to L.A. Solar. We are fortunate to have L.A. Solar Group watching over our solar panels. They are a great group!

Today the news announced the possible sale of LA Solar to Tesla. I am disappointed to hear that may occur. We selected LA Solar and had our 17 panels installed 2 months ago. We selected LA Solar over two other highly recognized solar companies for several reasons. First, customer service: from the start to finish, they were professional and clearly communicated every step in the process. There was no bull in their presentation and all follow up was handled timely and professionally. Second, cost and financing: for American made panels and product warranty they beat the competitors. The financing was handled through L.A. Credit Union. For the $6000 expected Federal rebate, that portion of the loan is for 0% for 16 months. The balance was financed at a very reasonable rate. Lastly, the reviews on Yelp were by far much better than the other two companies we contacted. The system is working very well. Even in these last three days of record breaking heat, the panels have produced 98% of our energy needs. I only pray that LA Solar stays in business and we can count on our warranty (service) to stay intact.

They were AWESOME! Beat EVERYONE'S price in the area. I quoted with the Costco company, SunPower, and about 8 other companies, including a friend and also a family member that both worked for solar companies. LA Solar beat all of them in pricing by A LOT! Customer service is awesome and we have been happy with our panels for 4.5 years. I recommend them to anyone who asks me because I feel like there are too many companies out there ripping people off. One company quoted me almost DOUBLE what I got from LA Solar. That to me is dishonest.

I was referred to LA solar by a friend and it’s already 7 months I had my solar system installed. Everyone I worked with were efficient, friendly and knowledgeable. The price was affordable and they offered good financial options, which was within my budget expectations. The whole installation process was fast and it took around 2 months. I’m happy with my solar system and will highly recommend LA Solar Group to everyone who is interested in getting solar system.

I originally purchased solar from LA Solar, they were not great at communicating, were a bit delayed in installing, but eventually came through. More recently I decided to add some Tesla Powerwalls to my system and I decided to try LA Solar again. They installed the Powerwalls which was very complicated ordeal with lots of new panels and conduit. It took most of the day and they didn't finish until the sun was going down, so they said they couldn't commission the battery, they'd come back to do that, but no worries since we didn't have permission to operate (PTO). Later they had to come back to do the inspection. Only had a few minor issues noted, which were fixed promptly and the inspector passed the system. Finally got PTO, had a bit of a rough time getting anyone out to commission my system, but they finally did. Deducted one star for the delays in commissioning, but the install looks solid and the batteries are performing as expected with my previous solar install. Now I am fully solar, with enough batteries to back up my whole house. All said and done, I'd use LA Solar again.

After doing my research and narrowing down to a few local solar companies, I decided to go with LA Solar because of their professionalism and reasonable pricing. The whole process was smooth and efficient from getting city permits, to installation, and inspections. The staff was very patient in answering my questions and explaining the process along the way. They're also good about responding back to you right away. I would definitely recommend LA Solar.

I am in the process of changing to solar, and I can say that I am very pleased with the professionalism of Toni M at LA Solar Group. Toni is super helpful and very customer service oriented. She goes out of her way to ensure I understand the process, and if she doesn’t have the answer, which is rare, she finds out and gets back to me. I am so thankful for Toni and the LA Solar Group team!

I did a lot of research and was focused on great equipment, but more importantly a company that valued me as a customer, and was easy to work with. Starting the Vladimir who reached out to us first and sold us the system and ending with everyone involved in the various steps of the process we could not be more happier, especially with a $0 electric bill. If I had a second house, I would install solar a second time and I would use LA Solar again.
