Solar Shade Structure

I contacted numerous solar companies, several I didn't hear back from after the initial meeting. Mike Shaheen from AM Sun checked back with me occasionally to see if I had any questions or if I had made a decision. He really earned his commission on my project. We went with several options of ground mounts and after alot of proposals, I finally told him that I would really like to do a shade structure in front of my barn for my cars. He said "We can do that". He told me that they would do the complete project and it would all qualify for the federal rebate. I finally got acouple of calls from the other solar companies and when I mentioned the shade structure, they told me that once I put it up, they would install the panels. I made my decision to go with Mike and AM Sun. They did an outstanding job, my shade structure could withstand any hurricane or tornado. Mike Shaheen is an excellent and very knowable sales person. He knows his solar and very easy to work with. I felt back about changing my mind and making him do proposal after proposal. He was easy going and his only goal was to make sure I was happy with my solar project. I highly recommend A.M. Sun.

Paso Robles, CA

No pressure sales gimmicks. Mike from AM Solar spent plenty of time going over all the options available and explained the timeline and steps needed to complete my install. All the permits and PG&E paperwork was handled by their office. Install was quick and professional...system has been up and running close to a year now with zero issues. I highly recommend AM Sun Solar. Gary M. Paso Robles, CA

Competitive Pricing & Quality Work

Of the companies that I talked to, AM Sun Solar were the only ones that did not insist on installing the system what they wanted me to have, but quoted the hardware & system that I wanted. I am not the type of person that normally pays people to do work for me and I don't generally recommend contractors, but the quote was so good and the system turned out so well, that every one of my friends that I have recommended AM Sun Solar to has hired them! It has been 3 years now since AM Sun Solar installed my 9kw system, and the system has worked flawlessly and production continues to out perform the production estimates. Towards the end this, my fourth, season, the system cost will be fully recovered. Thanks Mark & AM Sun Solar!

Good experience.

Professional installation with regard for property and appearance.

Great service

The entire process from sales pitch through installation and turn on went exactly as projected. Everything was on time or ahead of schedule, the office was great, and all the paperwork was doable on the Internet. A really nice experience. The Internet monitor system is easy to use and provides complete information monthly, weekly, or even hourly.

ABSOLUTE BEST INSTALLER AND SERVICER ON THE CENTRAL COAST

After reviewing solar installation companies for two years, I finally made the decision and went with the best rated installer on the Central Coast...AM Sun Solar. My research included reading online reviews from numerous sources, in person meetings with the top four installers, phoning past customers, and I actually visited one previous customer's installation site. In addition, they were only one of two installers that would install a ground-mount system (as I didn't want the PV tiles on my roof). The result: I could not be more satisfied. The system has been installed for 4 months and has performed flawlessly. I no longer concern my self with how much electricity I use...nor when I want to use it! Annual electricity rate increases are now just a bad memory! In summary: Price - cheapest around Sales crew - lowest pressure, most informative, and professional Installation crew - knowledgeable, skillful, flexible, timely, and professional System - maintenance free, performs better than expected, and I can monitor production from my smartphone! To the AM Sun Solar team - you are the unequivocal BEST! Feel free to use me as a reference...anytime.

Done fast. Easy company to work with. Job installed correctly per MIT Electrical Engineer

Great Experience with AM Sun Solar!

We had a great experience working with AM Sun Solar. We had talked with 5 companies and liked what we saw at AM Sun Solar. Mo was our rep and was great! She was quick to respond to any questions we had, unlike the outcome with several of the other companies. They were installing during some of the hottest days of the summer and were up in our even hotter attic, but never heard them complain. They did not rush through it and made sure that the job got done right! They were very tidy, leaving the place clean on a daily basis. I was impressed that they painted the conduit to match the house. The crew were all very professional and I would highly recommend them.

Wonderful Experience

Very knowledgeable and helpful staff. A seamless experience. Better panels and real customer service than the big corporate solar companies.

Raised Mount System

We had AM Sun Solar install our system 4 years ago after receiving bids from several companies. AM Sun stood out by designing a custom raised mount system to fit our needs, including space to add another row of panels at a later date which we accomplished in late 2015 without hiccup. Our system is on track to fully pay off within the expected 6 year timeframe (2 years from now) and our only annual cost is the monthly PG&E administration fee of about $10. Part of AM Sun's up-front analysis demonstrated the benefit of switching to a "time of use" meter which has allowed us to earn credits during the day when the meter is running backwards that offset the cost of the energy we draw from the grid during the cheaper "off-peak" times.

Satisfaction

We are very satisfied with the installation of our Solar system. From all the office personnel to the installers, all informative to to all the questions I had. Our system was installed within if not sooner than the scheduled time. I highly recommend AM Sun Solar to all my friends. Their system is lower in price with the high quality products. Believe me I shopped around and discovered that AM Sun Solar is $5,000 to $15,000 lower than other systems.

Great so far very Happy

Just in the first month of Solar hub a loo, not sure what to expect on my first bill, waiting. The last one reminded me of why we went solar. The company was great with all facets of setting up our home. Would of liked to have been here when they insalled but was in Los Angeles at the time. The crew was very professional and rescued a gopher snake that made my wife scream at. Not only are they great installers they handle snakes with the same care and attention of their instlation. Happy so far.

15 Panels and a Leaf

I recently sold a home with solar panels. Since I drive a Nissan Leaf most of the time, I couldn't be without panels so I had AM Sunsolar put 15 panels on the house I'm in now. The process couldn't have been easier--from the proposal to the installation through the inspection and now support. Everyone was professional, courteous, and reliable. I'm now producing plenty of electricity to drive as much as I want with no fuel costs.

Superb local AM Sun Solar

Neither Solarcity, nor Solarponicks have a way to deal with S Spanish tile. They both told me to hire a roofer to prepare the roof and they'd inspect it and hopefully approve it. AM Sun Solar did a beautify job and their bid was same as city and nicks. Awesome guys and no trash left !!!

A+++ for AM Sun Solar (3.38 kWp)

We had a 3.38 kWp system installed in January 2016 which we own (paid cash). Our monthly usuage averages 420 kWh per month. Our average production so far has been 510 kWh per month (237 low due to El Nino rain to 584 high) so it's been great to watch the meter spin backwards!! The system was installed earlier than originally estimated and at the exact price quoted. Professional staff, from the sales rep (ask for Adam Scorby), to the front office, to the installers. All questions were answered quickly and they provided the most references (10) of the 5 solar companies we contacted. They included current installations still being assembled to 5 year old projects (both commercial and residential). We were able to see 3 in person and talk with their owners. Their positive experiences were ultimately what drove our decision to go with AM Sun Solar (prices were the same essentially since we wanted to own our system). They took care of all the permits and helped us with the tax info. They continue to answer our questions even months after the installation. We really love that their system comes with an App so we can view daily/weekly/monthly/yearly production down to each individual panel no matter where we are.

Superb Solar company-Higly recommend using AM Sun Solar

We had another company put solar on our business a few years ago and then when we were wanting to consider our home, we got a referral for AM Sun Solar. They were so good and so on the ball. Answered all our questions and concerns and were easy to work with and get things done the way we wanted. Even after system was up and running they were always available to answer questions or concerns. System is less than a year old but working great and our PGE bills are looking we will definitely not have a bill this year. Payback probably will be around 4 years... IN today's very crappy economic and investment environment, this was a no-brainer easy relatively risk free investment. After our fed tax credit, and at the current PGE savings, we are looking like nearly a 25% ROI annually...cost was just under net cost was just under $17,000 after tax credit and it is offsetting $4000 average annual energy costs...

A very positive experience

The salesperson was no pressure and very informative. The installation was painless, professional and clean. The final cost was exactly as quoted. We would recommend AM Sun Solar without hesitation!

solar

They're are very regularly style people, that help you understand solar. They make sure you understand everything before you sign on. Their work is very professional and installers are friendly I give A M solar A plus and don't forget about the office girls they are the ones that make it happen.

Atascadero install including full reroof.

From the beginning my salesman Glen was terrific. He was very knowledgeable and patient with me in answering all my questions and concerns. They beat home depot and Costcos sales presentations on options, price, service, and professionalism. I got several bids to make sure I had done my research. Working with Glen was a great decision. Nate my lead installer was very courteous and polite during their time at my home. Nate and his crew of installers went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. They did several drywall repairs and electrical repairs while they were here too because it was necessary for the city's permit. I feel great about my purchase. Thanks guys! Ari

photovoltaique system

My wife and I were very pleased with Am Solar; efficient, friendly, on time, they built our system flawlessly for a very competitive price. I highly recommend them.

Jackson Residence

Thanks for making the transition seamless.

Fast and friendly

There aren't enough stars to give AM Sun. They worked with us on everything. We wound up with exactly the system we wanted at a great price, and it was installed and ready to go well under a month after the contract was signed. Incredible. The installers were so efficient and did such a good job of putting away materials at the end of the day (it took two or three days to install) that my neighbors didn't believe me when I told him we already had the system on (it's hard to see the array on our roof unless you're in the right spot). Evidently I missed a call from AM Sun yesterday morning, because just after lunch I got a knock on the door from their site lead. Their remote monitoring picked up some sort of fault, and he came right out to get it taken care of. I would trust AM Sun to install on my grandmother's roof.

AM sun solar review

Wonderful to work with

Over One Year Later

AM Sun Solar installed our system 16 months ago and it has preformed above expectations. Their advice on sizing for our needs was right on. We wanted a system to meet 100% of our then current electric needs and provide additional electricity for a future swim spa. After the installation of the solar system, we installed a 16' swim spa and over the last 16 months our utility electric bill has been "0" $$. We use the swim spa daily and we have a big smile each time we jump into 95 degree water and know it is being heated with electricity provided by the sun. Anyone thinking about installing solar needs to strongly consider AM Sun Solar as their provider.

Awesome

Awesome company for our solar Great to work with;)
