Latest ESA Solar reviews
We researched a few different companies and ESA had competitive prices. The entire process was very easy. Brandon was very easy to work with, very prompt in returing calls and emails, and very easy to get in touch with. Once the permitting was done, installation was very quick. Our system is now running, and with the app I can track our production from anywhere. The process for solar is not a quick one, between permits and meter change, it can take a few months, but ESA was in touch with us and kept us informed on timelines and schedules.... read more
I am an OUC customer and ESA Solar is the company that they have contracted with. The sales associate was on time, pleasant and very knowledgeable. The whole process from deciding on a system to installation was fantastic. ESA is very good at communicating with their customers and keeping them up to date on what is going on. Morgan in the office is fantastic. Received a weekly update on Fridays about the progress of the installation and what was going to happen next. Was kept informed every step of the way. There were a few communication missteps but overall it was great. The electrician was very pleasant and knowledgeable and did beautiful work. The installers were also great. They make sure everything that they do is esthetically pleasing from the conduit work to the solar panel alignment. Any and all questions were answered. My system was put online September 20th and has been working great since. Not one problem. Monitoring is great. My system is producing between 35 to 45 kWh per day depending on the cloud cover. Some days a little lower due to it being really cloudy. If I had to do this again I would again use ESA Solar for the installation again, no doubt. Was very pleased with the entire process.... read more

I have done extensive research and met with more than just 3 solar installers (my rule is to get at least 3 bids) throughout my journey on Solar. My own research all point to SunPower being one of the best and one of the most efficient panels out there, it also has the best warranty coverage. SunPower referred me to their local authorized dealer, and that is where I met Brandon at ESA Solar.
I have had other solar installers range from extremely pushy, to outright dishonesty. The ones that were pushy and dishonest immediately turned me away. Brandon at ESA Solar was not any of the above. He actually spent his time answering all my questions and also went above beyond to see if he can meet my unique requests.
One thing that was interesting is that throughout my research, while SunPower was one of the best panels, all research materials say that SunPower was higher. Overall, I did not find that to be the case if you look at overall price per watt.
With these research points, I have finally made up my mind to go with SunPower. I researched ESA Solar and it was obvious they were a new company. Little online reviews as compared to other Solar installers. It seems that they branched off from ESA Renewables which is the commercial division. ESA renewables did have few good reviews. Normally I would be very careful about spending a large amount of money on a project this large on a company that seemed very young.
I took a chance with ESA Solar anyway.
The install process had a few hitches and slight delays. ESA Solar appears to hired very new or unproven subcontractors. The subcontractor did not follow specs and that lead to two fail city inspections. There was another incident that if I had not caught, it would have probably failed another inspection. I bought this to Brandon attention and he immediately made sure the techs got the right part before finishing the installation that day.
Overall, If I would do it over again, I would still have chosen ESA Solar.
They are premium panels. Price is right, and Brandon is easy to work with. These items outweigh the hiccups I had along the way. With due time, I think they will get the install process down.
The solar production estimate that Brandon gave me seems below what the Panels are actually producing, now, of course, his estimate is throughout the year and my winter months will show the worse time for Solar. But, just looking at what I’ve been getting recently (During the Summer) I am out producing estimates!... read more

ESA Solar from start to finish did a fantastic job and explaining the process to get to solar and helping me understand the process. I've done a ton of research and was glad to see their staff were able to answer any questions I had. In addition, I looked at other quotes from other companies that, while good, did not match ESA's local consultative approach. Sunpowers cells are top of the line and look great on a roof. All of the staff are doing a great job: Morgan B, Morgan M, Desmond, Brandon, Kyle and I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting. I look forward to my utility switching out the current meter to a bidirectional one so that we can turn this system on! Thanks again - I would highly recommend ESA Solar to anyone!... read more
Installation of our solar Residential System 2018

My home was built in the 1970's & before our purchased in 2001 had been a rental property. We have done some upgrades to appearance of property but not much else. In order to go solar our electrical system needed to be upgraded. ESA Solar during the sales process gave us a very good understanding of how their company would evaluate our specific needs & determine size & configuration of our solar system. They came out the next day & did measurements & inspected our electrical system, attic, & roof. Our electrical system needed a complete upgrade & was after a few days presented in the overall cost of the solar system. They did all the installation, of panels, rewiring of electrical, & new electrical termination boxes, set up all permitting, & inspection from start to finish.The whole process was done in a couple of months. They are a very professional company & keep
you updated throughout the installation. I had no hidden or additional costs with all the work done on getting my system installed. Other than a few days here & there of weather related problems my installation went along as scheduled. I am able to track my solar panel efficiency & usage of power anytime on Sunpower online.... read more

We had been waiting for the right opportunity to enter the solar system arena investigating and researching system capabilities, branding, costs, performance, etc. We found this company in Sanford and decided to give them a call for an estimate. The reps came out to our home promptly and discuss with us the potential for a system and the technical matters. ESA recommended we went with the SunPower system and I felt very relieved because I had read that SP was at the top of the game when it comes to solar power systems. ESA took longer than we expected in getting our system installed due to a couple of documentation issues that required re-submission to the power company. This did not come at a surprise to us because solar companies must deal with a myriad of power companies who have their own internal processing rules and issues. Conversely, ESA kept us up to date and informed of all matters related to the project, they answered all our questions and responded immediately to calls and emails. We were particularly impressed with ESA's flexibility ability to adjust to changes. ESA coordinated the installation of our system immediately after the power company had done their job. I would, hands down, recommend ESA to anyone looking into a residential solar system installation.... read more

This is a company that appears to know what they're doing. The installation ran into unexpected problems (a hurricane hitting right before my installation was to begin, a slow permitting process etc) but ESA strived in every instance to adapt and overcome and get the project back on track.

Despite the frustrations from the unexpected delays overall I'm very happy with both the product itself and the way the installation went.... read more
