Affordable Home Solar

Excellent work and follow-up

Want to thank Meo and his team that made the solar instal project a breeze for us. He was always well prepared , took care of all the permits and installed the solar unit in record time (few weeks from planning to install). Inspections took a bit longer because of the city backlog. Highly recommend the team as trusted solar installers

Very Efficient!

Meo's company was straight forward and super efficient to work with. Did site survey, permit, layout, PG&E, etc., all very professionally, quick, and for a great price. There was no salesmanship or options that don't make sense, and he had good explanations. He was very quick overall, including from the time of the installation until PG&E sent the letter of approval to operate, and his installation workers even came on a Sunday to fix a small glitch (a loose wire nut) ... so now all panels are happily producing power which will undoubtedly reduce our bill - and I can see it in the Enphase monitoring which is included in the price. Most importantly, he made this happen before NEM 3.0 takes effect, despite scheduling constraints (roof replacement, lots of rain this season, solar installers super busy, etc.). If you're looking for a no-nonsense solar install, I strongly recommend him.

Fantastic Company

Professional Workmanship and Design. Excellent Customer Service. Top tier components. Expedient timelines. Very Affordable pricing. Meo Nguyen and Affordable Home Solar offer the best value in the SF Bay Area. Highly Recommend!!

Amazing - highly recommend!

Installation couldn’t have gone smoother. Our electrician (who is also a Tesla sub-contractor) recommended we work with Meo at Affordable Home Solar because of the great customer service and quick turnaround time. After a panel upgrade, Meo was able to get our permits, panels installed, inspected, and PGE approved within weeks. From the very beginning/design process, Meo guided us through the various panel brand options and micro-inverter choices while being very clear on the pros/cons, bang for your buck, etc…. He took care of all the permit paperwork and his crew installed 24 panels in less than a day while setting up all the online/app solar monitoring software. With lots of experience and customers in the Bay Area, he knew exactly what our city inspectors were looking for. The inspections were flawless - they were in and out in 10-15 min. Meo submitted our paperwork to pge and within a week our net metering started to show on our pge account. Most importantly, Meo and his team are just great people to work with, always responsive, and very professional. They stand behind their work and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone interested in installing solar.

Great team. Helpful.

Meo and his team: knowledgeable, provide quality answers to your questions. Detail can be observed on their work and installation. Highly recommended.

Professional and outstanding service.

I find AHS based on good review online. I start communicating with Meo in email. Meo is very knowledgeable, and he also give me a competitive quote compare with other installer. Meo do not oversell me, only sell the system what we need and Meo handle all the permit work and inspection completed. The installment was also run smooth. Meo and his team is so efficient. The installation job is done in very professional. Meo also stand by their product. I have one panel have under performance issue. Meo and David keep come to my home to diagnose issue , and help to process the warranty from the manufacturer to replace the panel They went above and beyond to support the customer. I highly recommend AHS.

Excellent service and installation

Full system quote, install and permit done in under two weeks.

AHS exceeded my expectations; I highly recommend them!

Meo and his crew installed a perfectly sized and oriented solar PV system in two days that has exceeded my expectations. Service was 5* and his pricing was very competitive, covering all costs from site survey to city inspection. He is responsive, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. An overall great experience and outcome. I highly recommend Meo and Affordable Home Solar!

Professional and affordable

I have obtained multiple quotes for my 4-5 kW system, and AHS is among the most affordable. I like that I am directly communicating with Meo and not some sales person. His communication was always prompt and professional. The install was scheduled within 2 weeks of the contract signing and only took 2 days. I would recommend them to anyone interested in solar panel installation.

Knowledgeable, Quality Work and Competitive Pricing

We installed a solar system back in 2016 using Pedersen-Dean at the time who has since gone out of business. It has worked great, but we added an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) and plan to get a electric car in the future, so we needed to add more power. We found a list of authorized Enphase solar companies and I started to interview companies. Most of the other companies seemed to have sales people that didn't know what they were talking about or tried to get me to upgrade the entire system which was totally unnecessary. Meo was great to work with on the upgrade. He listened to what I needed and designed an upgrade that worked for our home. Another employee David came out and did a thorough inspection of our system to make sure we didn't have any gotchas. Meo and David kept me informed on the schedule and completed the project in one day. Awesome quality job and I have already recommended them to a friend who also have a PD installed system looking at adding to their system too. They wore masks and followed pandemic protocols while they were on our property. I will use them again if I have any other solar projects or need maintenance on my system.

Glad that I chose AHS !!!

I was not given a quote based on my past electric bills and was fare and reasonable. Other companies gave ridiculously high quotes for a system way above my requirement. My installer was Younes and he was very knowledgeable. Above all, he was helpful and nice to work with. Installation was completed on time and has great warranty on parts and labor. I would recommend Meo and Affordable Home Solar to all my friends and family.

Only positive things to say

I had a really good experience with AHS. Younes was the project manager for my system and I found him to be very personable, knowledgeable, and detail oriented. Meo was also very straightforward and had great communication. I am overall very satisfied with how everything turned out.

Affordable & Straightforward

I had been getting quotes on EnergySage and talked to a number of sales folks from different providers. In parallel, due to the glowing reviews from colleagues, I reached out to Affordable Home Solar. Their quote came in at near the bottom of prices, and Meo was much more direct and no nonsense than the salespersons I talked to. I went with them, and the installation process was as advertised.

Very pleased to work with ASH

Meo is very knowledgeable, patient, and acting on his words. Great job done. Would highly recommend ASH.

Efficient, Expert, and Fair!

I loved that Meo and his team wore masks and were conscientious about health in this time of Covid. Working with Meo at Affordable Home Solar was a great, smooth experience. I called him, and he had no sales pitch, or mandatory appointment with a sales consultant. He provided a fair, balanced, informative, and customized assessment, and a very reasonable quote. I really appreciated knowing who I was working with from start to finish, and he warrants his work. Also, Meo did not try to sell me a system too big for what I needed, and he worked with me on and helped me select a brand and solution properly sized for my needs. I saw from another post that Meo teaches classes in solar installs; he has true expertise and passion! I trusted Meo from start to finish and he and his crew at AHS did not disappoint! I highly recommend him and his team if you have a solar project. He has a small, expert team and he himself helps with the install, which I liked. I did not want to work with a big company where it is hit or miss in terms of end-user experience with installers etc. Those might have been fine, but for me, knowing who I was working with, and having Meo available any time I had a question, were all positives. Also, Meo does the paper work for PG&E, another plus! Meo was reliable (showing up at all appointments on time or early!), and working with him was no hassle and he got the job done very well. The conduit metal holding the wires is good quality and professionally installed, and he even painted any exposed conduit on the roof so that it more closely matches the dark roof color. That’s great attention to detail I appreciate. Also, he figured out the most efficient and aesthetic way to wire the panels. I wanted a good looking install, and symmetrical: he understood and delivered on aesthetics too, from selection of panel type and size, to placement on the roof. I am happy w the process and final system. He said he would install in about 5 weeks and he did!! Biggest slowdown in the process was Oakland city for the permit approval and final inspection. But Meo took care of all the interaction with the city. I did some research and decided I wanted a specific high-end brand. He quoted me for my choice but he also pointed out an alternative which I ended up going with. He knows the brands and will work with you for a great solution for your circumstance.

Very professional and reasonable cost

Professional, efficient ( a one day install, 6hrs) for 15 panels and support equip. No sales pitch, just facts. Recommend them highly

Excellent service, wide range of panels, efficient installation

Selected Meo and team at Affordable Home Solar after getting a range of quotes online and via email. Meo was very responsive by email and offers simple price quotes and a wide range of panels which let me design the system I wanted, including the latest Black on Black panels From Solaria. Installation was very efficient, quick and high quality on the roof and the conduit runs to the panel. Definitely recommend asking Meo for a quote on your system.

Best price and personal service

I did my homework before selecting a solar company. AHS had the best best price and Meo is a very knowledgeable and honest owner. He not only personally comes out to inspect and bid the job, he is here and works on the installation as well. He always was on time for appointments, but also completed the job in one day. Everything went as promised, I am very pleased.

Excellent service / reasonable price

Among the 7 contractors that I had consulted, AHS was the cheapeast (upfront pricing with very little price negotiation! - no game playing!) Marc and Christian spent a reasonable amount of time inspecting our home to ensure what was best for our needs and placement of the panels. Meo was very responsive with quotes, changes, and questions. The installation was quick, professional, and seamless! They took care of everything. Best part, they are very trust worthy! Unlike other solar contractors, they did not require a down payment! Payment was made after we have passed inspection with the city. Overall, very happy and definitely would recommend AHS to anyone! Sincerely, Nick and Julie in San Jose, Ca

4.355 kW Residential Solar Installation

After reviewing multiple vendors decided to go with Affordable Home Solar. The owner Meo was knowledgeable, installation price was reasonable and has seen his prior installation at my neighbors house. I felt comfortable to go with him. They did a good job with my installation, overall professional and took care of all the process related paper work. I strongly recommend Affordable Home Solar.

Affordable Home Solar -- The Best

Most Solar companies send a salesperson with high pressure tactics. Affordable Home Solar was equipped with the information on panels, inverters and installation that I was looking for. It didn't hurt that they were also the most affordable. If you want hassle free solar install, Affordable is the company to choose.

Best in business

I will be brief. I found this company through referral. They were punctual with all their communication, timely installed, very professional, takes care is inspection etc. To my surprise they also fixed couple of tiles that were broken and also bought the paint to fix the patches that were there for long time. They went above and beyond to finish my installation. Their pricing was also low compared to other big providers due to low overhead cost. I will definitely recommend them.

Fantastic service with great results

Affordable Home Solar installed solar panels on our home in San Mateo. They did a great job at a very competitive price. Meo was a pleasure to work with, and his team completed installation on the schedule Meo gave us. We’ve had the panels for many months, and our electric bills have gone down to virtually nothing. Overall we couldn’t be more pleased with Meo and Affordable Home Solar.

Affordable Home Solar is the best!!!!

We took estimates from several companies before we decided to use their services. They had the lowest cost for solar installation while providing the best service. Meo and Younis were some of the best people you can work with. Younis was our installer and he was very timely, courteous and professional. He kept us in the loop for the whole process and he always met his deadlines and wrapped up the project earlier than scheduled. He was nice enough to take time to explain the products and functionality. Meo was also very professional and ensured our project cost remained the same even when there were some shipping delays. He ensured we got the best panels that were available in the market. We will strongly recommend using Affordable Home Solar service for solar panel installations.

Great experience, practical and no pushy sales

I had a great experience working with Meo on my solar installation. He was straight forward and to the point. The other solar companies I talked to were all salespeople but Meo is the installer and was quickly able to figure out a solution for my house. He had suggested upgrading my main panel to one that supported my desired power output, as opposed to digging up a ditch to install a 200 amp service (very $$$). No other company had suggested this solution. He was very competitive with cost per watt and had LG panels which probably has the best combination of performance and value of all the major panel makers. I highly recommend working with Meo and Affordable Home Solar.
