Wade Echer

We had a great experience with Sunrun. Sales rep was patient and upbeat. Answered my 1000 questions. Had to do a panel upgrade as part of this and the electrician team was top notch. A great job across the board. Array is turned on now and it feels fantastic to be generating green power.

I had Sunrun install.our solar panel on our house. I would recommend that you use this company to install your. They were friendly, competent and efficient at all levels of the installation. I am also very happy with my electric bill too, which has often been 0!... and I have been charging an electric car for a year.

Very easy process from day one, they took care of everything and the installation only took a day and have never had a problem since they have started producing. Going solar has saved me a lot of money even with only leasing them. If I could have purchased them, I’d be saving even more. Definitely recommend for your solar solutions.

The experience with sunrun was a great experience. If I had questions they when ere right on top of things. I was always notified when workers were going to be there and what they were doing. Cleanup was great. The workers were great and if I hd any questions for them they were right on it. I would recommend sunrun to anyone, no hesitation.

Did not like the time involved with each step of the approval process, but that is on the local and utility company inspectors. Once the system was activated, it has worked flawlessly, generating up to 6+Kw per hour on sunny days, and 47 KWh for the day as recently as March 31, 2024.

Janet Kitson Melbourne, FL

We had a nearly perfect experience with Sunrun. They installed our panels, explained everything and got it all working. However, our salesman had offered to throw in two electric car charging units for our garage. I asked about this a couple of times during the installation but the guys said they didn't do that. After the job was completed, I contacted the salesman about the chargers and he said he followed up with the company and at the time he took another job, he was told it had all been completed. I then contacted SunRun and forwarded the text mails between the salesman and I. The texts clearly show that he and I both expected this to be done but it was not in the contract. Sunrun offered me $100 for my inconvenience, watch out for the bait and switch.

We recently replaced our 30 year old roof. To do so we needed to have a crew come out and remove the solar panels and then replace them once the roof was done. The entire process was painless. The set-up, the crew, storage of the panels, replacement. It all went as smooth as silk.

Sunrun is the WORST SOLAR Company in California, horrible customer service/support. Can't get a straight answer to any of your questions just get transferred to another department. My roof started leaking under my solar panels and it was determined by SUNRUN'S install team and a roofing contractor I hired that the leak was due to a poor solar panel install. Sunrun refused to pay for my roofing damages, PLUS wants to charge me $2500 to remove the panels so the repairs can be made. In addition, SUNRUN wants to charge me another $2500 to have the panels reinstalled after my roof is fixed. HEED MY WARNING DON'T USE THIS SOLAR COMPANY WORST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE.

Mike Bordenave Pleasanton, CA

I am in the process of having SunRun install solar panels on our house. I purchased a 6KW system (not a lease or a Power Purchase Agreement) so I will update this review as the installing progresses. Two issues I am dealing with is that I asked for the inverter and switch to be located inside the garage rather than have that eye sore on the outside of the house. Their plans call for five large electrical panels along the wall in the garage. The second issue I need resolved is the inverter size, they specified a 5KW inverter for a 6.1KW system. Update 01/30/19 The inverter has been changed to a more efficient and properly sized inverter. It was a little more money, but that was due a change I requested. This also resolved the issue with excessive panels being mounted on the house (no additional power monitor meter). I’ll post an update once the installation is complete. So far so good.... Stay tuned...

Pete Magnolia, NJ

The company that installed my panels is top notch (Castle Energy). If it wasn’t for JR Castle I would have been lost. The system was installed a little over a year ago and so far has done everything I was promised. Now here is where the problem comes in I never had a problem with birds on my roof until these solar panels were installed. When I called SunRun their customer service department told me it was my problem and they could sell me a critter guard for somewhere between $800.00 and $1800.00 dollars. I ask them why it wasn’t offered when they installed the panels and also why should I have to pay for it since I never had a problem until they installed the panels. I ask to speak with a supervisor and was told someone would contact me within two days, that was over a week ago. The customer service is so poor and it is so hard to understand why such a good company has such poor customer service. In my opinion a company can only be as good as it supports the product they sell. I gave customer service one star but they changed it to three.

Hello Pete. Thank you for your response. We could not have known you would experience this wildlife issue as it’s unpredictable and only a very small portion of our customers experience wildlife issues. Our monitoring system will alert us if your system experiences issues. If your system does experience issues, we will investigate the root cause including whether animals caused damage. If animals caused damage, we’ll make the necessary repairs to get your system back up and running at its full potential. While Sunun takes care of system insurance, maintenance and production, Sunrun’s warranty does not cover wildlife you’re interested, we can recommend a local partner of ours in your area who offers a service to install a critter guard around the perimeter of the array to prevent animals from getting under the panels.

Company itself is good. The install team was great however the sales rep Jed S doesn’t reply to calls after the sale has been made. I was promised by him critter guards but they were never installed. Tried to contact him several times regarding this, a couple times he said that he will let sunrun know about it but they never did anything. Then he just stopped answering messages and calls. Same goes for one of the office girls she asked me to send her pictures of the critter problem then stoped responding. All I received was a third party company estimate for installing the critter guards. Update: so Sunrun sent a message asking for my information to contact me regarding my concerns but have failed to contact me so I guess i will be dropping another star from my review

Its early in the process for me. Just finished up w/the sales rep and scheduled the 1st inspection. Couple of things: 1) the sales pitch was way too long. It took almost 5 hours: one whole afternoon. The sales rep did not let me read the contract, although he did seem to highlight the salient point. The inspection appointment was scheduled; but I lost track of the appointment time. I emailed the rep to confirm the appointment but he never got back to me. As a result I missed the inspection appointment. Subsequently I did get a call from Customer Service rescheduling the appointment. Not a very auspicious start. Hopefully the rest will go smoothly.

I purchased a 3kW system from REC Solar, who had partnered with Sunrun before Sunrun purchased their residential solar part of company in 2014. The details appear on Sunrun's website: "Sunrun and Mainstream Energy Corp. today announced that Sunrun has acquired the residential division of REC Solar, AEE Solar and SnapNrack. The companies represent Mainstream Energy's residential solar sales, design and installation; wholesale distribution; and mounting systems and hardware businesses, respectively. In the commercial market, REC Solar will continue as an independent organization under the legal name REC Solar Commercial Corp. The value of the transaction was not disclosed." Shortly afterward my Fronius inverter failed. First it took me awhile to figure out that REC Solar was not the company I needed to deal with. Once I discovered that I needed to deal with Sunrun, it became a nightmare to find out how to contact them. Bizarrely I discovered that they had an office about 8 miles away from my house. Then they refused to honor the warranty until I produced a copy of my contract. Afterwards they replaced the inverter in a reasonable time period. This was the second replacement in ten years, the limit of REC Solar's warranty. So despite Sunrun's more beneficial warranty, I am stuck with replacing the inverter should it fail again. Overall, I was disappointed that Sunrun had very little documentation about REC Solar's customers, especially me. I think they drug their feet without adequate information. They offered me no additional services or perks like internet supervision or extended warranties. However they did honor their commitment after my showing them the original contract. Minus two stars!!!!

I had a very quick and mostly smooth process! Richard P is the BEST sales guy you have. He was in training when they were at my house but he answered more of my questions that the sales rep. Richard P is very kind and courteous, knowledgeable and prompt. Once all the paperwork was complete the installation went faster than expected! So far I have been very happy.

1. My first call to inquire about Sunrun was to COSTCO where I picked up a brochure . My husband and I were talking solar system for our house because electric is getting higher every year from SRP. Costco said that Sunrun is only for COSTCO members. We were not , we are using our employers company Costco card. So I google for the 5 best solar company in AZ. I found Sunrun as No. 1 in the list. So I called, the lady that answered the phone asked some information about our location and the electric company. She told me that Sunrun does not deal with SRP because SRP are difficult to work with. Okay and thanked her for the info.

Not sure yet...salesman said we could lower the temp. on our thermostat as we will not be on the APS Grid anymore.....so we lowered it a couple of degrees and now have a bill with APS for $126 and $135 with Sunrun....which is more than I paid last year at this time...I’ll give it a few months and if it continues, I’ll have to see an attorney.....don’t believe the sales person as he’s trying to make a living...also, the installation was shabby...had to call them out a few times to make adjustments. Saw that some flashing was coming up and reported it again.....no action yet and it’s been about 3 weeks...
