Would Definitely Recommend

I decided to look into solar for my home to see if it could actually save me any money and met with a few different companies. I actually wasn’t very impressed with the first two but Guardian was much different. I found that they have been in business for over 15 years and didn’t have a bunch of negative reviews like the other two. I did a lot of research because this was such a large purchase and I definitely made the right decision to go with guardian. Everything was quick and easy and communication was great throughout the entire process.

I highly recommend guardian Solar. I've been trying to make attempts to do my part in being environmentally responsible and was looking for a company that was equally committed and caring. From the very first interaction to the final project closeout, GS was amazing. Every member of their team that I interacted with was professional, competent, respectful, timely, and EXPLAINED EVERYTHING IN DEPTH LEAVING ME WITH ZERO UNANSWERED QUESTION and every person at Positive Energy was patient, thorough, and comprehensive dealing with me as a first time buyer .

Can't say enough about these guys. Install process was smooth and done quickly. Waited more time for Lakeland Electric to sign off than anything else. Had to wait a couple extra days to install an wifi extender but can't fault them for that. Definitely recommend.

Stay away from Guardian Solar

It is taking Guardian solar 1 and 1/2 year to get my solar system and battery operation going. They failed inspection 3 times. Horrible customer support. The technicians do not know what they are doing. The worst company I have dealt with.

PAINLESS PROCESS

I had been looking to go solar for some time now. I met with pretty much all of the companies in my area and didn’t feel very comfortable with any of them until Guardian Solar. The sales guy was not pushy at all and gave me options which is nothing the other companies did. I felt like this company suited me best in my decision to go solar. We got updated every week on where the project was as and it was installed within 45 days. Highly recommend if you’re thinking about solar or on the fence about it.

Knowledgeable and Stress Free

I worked with Jeff on the purchase of solar for my home and he was very knowledgeable on the different products and was able to help me find the exact combination of equipment that was best for us. The installation process was exceptional as well, as he was always available to answer my questions and the entire Guardian staff made everything very easy and stress free.

Do not use this company. Stay away.

My system was installed less than two years ago by Guardian Solar. This was the company used by the broker that sold me the system and the reason I went with them. I wish I had done a little homework on Guardian but I trusted the broker. From the beginning there were delays on the installation. Then it didn't pass inspection because one of the breakers didn't match the amp power rating that was on the blue print. The blue print called for a higher amperage than what was installed. Really??? So it took a little over a month before they could submit an updated blue print for approval. It would have been quicker to just change the breaker. That same breaker continues to strip causing for half the system to go down. Looks like it actually needed the higher amperage after all. It took almost an act of God to get someone to return my emails and calls for the first two times the system when down. The second time I was told that I needed a steel box instead of fiberglass to avoid moisture from getting in but they didn't have the box in the truck so it was just glued and sealed. The system when down again for the third time in November 2020 on the same grid but this time NO ONE from Guardian returned my several emails and calls. Very frustrating. I went to Enphase with the complaint who did responded but could not do anything other than apologize and tell me that the installer Guardian needed to fix the problem. The problem was finally fixed after I found another installer in Orlando (Sunlight Solar) and I requested for them to be officially transferred on record to service my system. The new company actually answered my calls and emails. What a concept!!! Stay away from Guardian. On a positive note, it is good to know that I now have a reputable and responsible installer who will be able and willing to service my system and honor the factory warranty.

HORRIBLE COMPANY

Words cannot begin to describe how horrible this company is... NOTHING and I mean NOTHING is what they say it is. It started with my sales rep Michael who visited me after I filled out some information online looking for solar. Michael told me he was not an employee of Guardian but rather an independent "solar broker", which meant he could get me the best deal with the best companies in my area. It seemed sensible at the time and he was very nice and assured me my system would offset all of my electricity costs except for the basic charge from Duke for $8. Installation was supposed to take place in about 6-8 weeks. This is where it goes downhill. I got the run around form Michael who claimed "I don't work for Guardian" on multiple occasions and Guardian's office on multiple occasions without any return phone calls regarding when my panels could be put on. I finally got the owners phone number to see if I could make any headway with him. Apparently the owners name is Glen, but he goes by Danny. So I called "Danny" and upon answering the phone he seemed agitated and asked me if I had called the office before calling him because he doesn't know every job off the top of his head. I told him nobody has called me back and he literally proceeded to raise his voice and tell me "WELL, I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU ARE CALLING ME ABOUT THIS, I DON'T KNOW EVERY JOB OFF THE TOP OF MY F*****G HEAD, WE WILL CALL YOU WHEN WE ARE READY." and he HUNG UP! I was appalled! It's clear why the company doesn't care to return calls or give anyone answers when the owner acts like this! I was never rude to him, just looking to see if he could help me. I have never in my life experienced a response like this, especially from the OWNER of a company. Long story short, It took almost 20 weeks for my panels to go up, 2 inspections before it passed the city inspection, and then another 7 weeks before Duke got my new meter on. I called Duke numerous times and was told Guardian never submitted the paperwork until 3 weeks after my job passed the final inspection! The worst part of all of this is that my panels are not producing enough power to get my bill to $8 as Michael promised they would do. He completely lied to me from the beginning. I had another local company come out and they said there was no way the amount of panels Guardian installed would ever offset my whole power bill so now I have to have more panels put on to get me where I need to be. Fortunately the other company is trying to help and giving me a good deal to install the extra panels. They also said they would clean up the "sloppy" work and all the pipes that are all over my roof so I would be satisfied once it's finished. If you are considering this company I urge you to seek other options first. I wish I would have done my due diligence .
