Solar Panels

We are very happy with our solar installation. Intermountain did a great job for us and we would highly recommend them. Overall, our power bill is for only the taxes charged monthly. We have a Nissan Leaf car so we use that around town and the solar pays for the operation of the car. We are very satisfied with installing our solar panels.

Excellet

I loved working the Intermountain Wind and Solar. They were patient and knowledgeable while I was deciding. After I started the process with them, they walked me through everything and made sure it was all done right. At no point did I feel like they had forgotten about me or that now that the sale was closed they could move on. The installers were professional and quick. After the system was installed the rep I worked with checked back several times. They are a great company.

Satisfied Customer

Have overall been pleased with the service and production. Glad I got system when we did as RMP keeps trying to change our rates and at this point grandfathered in at previous rates. Not sure they will stick. Inter-mountain seems committed to continuing the fight as it greatly affects them. I like the dashboard that allows me the ability to monitor the system and at this point when the monitoring has gone down because of internet communication failure when I reset it, the past production is reported and preserved.

Pleased electrical engineer

Installed in November 2014. Very professional installation of all equipment. System of 34 panels sized correctly for our home which faces northwest (not optimum). Monthly bill since installation has never exceeded the administrative fee of about $9.00.Have had zero issues. I enjoy gazing at the pleasing layout and installation of the inverters, switches, wiring, etc. in the garage.

Great Service and Smooth Installation - I would recommend them

Intermountain Wind & Solar came out and installed my solar panels in one day, did a great job, everything was performed in a clean and professional manner, and they were in and out quickly. I would recommend them to anyone if they are considering getting solar panels.

Very pleased with my IWS solar installation

I'm very pleased with the efficiency and professionalism of this company. No tricks or hidden agenda and they were very straightforward during the entire process. Whatever questions I had they were able to answer. The installation of my solar system took 1 day. The longest part of the process was waiting for the power company to install the net meter on my panel. I would and have recommended IWS for solar. A friend of my mine is currently in queue to get his system installed by IWS.

Davis County Installation

Installation and operation of the solar electric system has been flawless. The Intermountain Wind and Solar team arrived en mass and completed a large installation in a single day. When they left, there was not a trace they had been there except for the equipment installed. Could not be more pleased.

Great Experience, Great Company

I have a very good experience with Intermountain Wind and Solar. I had a 24 panel system installed in 2016 and it was a very easy process laid out very clearly. They made it easy and clear to get the rebates from the state and on federal taxes. My system has been running flawlessly and it's nice to have a $8 power bill on some of the months!

Very good service

Intermountain was contracted by Blue Raven Solar to install our 18-panel system in October, 2015. They did a very quick and clean job of installation, and the system has worked well ever since. One comment I would make - it would have been nice to have the panels installed so that snow would slide off the roof instead of piling up on the roof at the bottom of the panels.

Fabulous Install

The company that sold our solar unit contracted out to Intermountain Wind and Solar. They were so fast and professional. You could tell that they were experts.

Best Solar!

Good company

These guys went above and beyond in bidding, installing and answering all my questions on a solar power system. Their work was great and the install looks great both on the roof and in the garage where the mechanicals are installed. I'd work with these guys again in a heartbeat and can highly recommend them!

Top of Pole Arrays and Roof Arrays

Intermountain Wind and Solar has installed 3 complete systems for our family. For the last system, we got 4 bids. They were the only provider to actually come out and evaluate the site. They crawled up in the attic to verify the strength of the trusses. They were able to give us the lowest bid because of the way they pool the needs of their customers and go to the hardware provider to get the best deals for bulk sales. Aside from being extremely competitive, they are the only provider to continue to service the units they sell. That IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!

Fabulous company to work with

We have been very pleased with our Solar installation from Intermountain Wind and Solar. They have been professional. There was a problem that turned out to be an issue where part of the system wasn't operating at full efficiency. They noticed this and came to my house to troubleshoot the problem before I ever knew there was an issue.

6KW System in Draper

Had my system moved from Midvale to Draper. The transfer went very well, it does cost some to move a system. I have complete south exposure for 23 panels in Draper. The system is now hitting 6KW several times a day and its not Summer yet. On average for the winter producing 550KWH every month. At the Midvale house the system was broken up which impaired it a little bit. My electric bill in Draper is about $30 each month, though not running A/C yet but the system should be peaking in KWH production. Cannot comment on Net zero since the system was designed for a diferent house and have not had it for a full year at either address. I was a Solar City customer many years ago in a different state experienced no issues but wanted to go with a local company and Intermountain Solar are very reponsive and provided good installation service. Very happy with the system, besides the Tax Break which is a perk.

Superb service and an excellent solar-power installation

My wife and I recently moved to Salt Lake City and looked into solar. We got estimates from four local companies. Intermountain did a really great job and I recommend them with enthusiasm and absolutely no hesitation. Our sales rep, Marshall, was enthusiastic, professional, and extremely helpful. He arrived at our home on time, said hello, and immediately got up onto our roof to check it out for himself (he had previously viewed the Google Earth images). Two of the other candidate vendors sent people up onto the roof, but not as the first step, and one relied solely on satellite images. Marshall was very open about the options (how many watts per panel, the pricing, and return-on-investment tradeoffs). He left us with a firm proposal. We decided to opt for slightly more expensive panels that produced more power, without materially changing the payback period. Once we signed the contract, Intermountain kept us fully informed, and completed every step sooner than expected (permitting, design approval, installation, connection with Rocky Mountain Power, etc.) The crew of five from Intermountain that installed our system greatly impressed my wife and me with their professionalism and care. The were clearly very experienced craftsmen who wanted to do a great job for their customer. Our system was turned on on October 23 and it's been great. I'm delighted with Intermountain.

Bluffdale Solar Install

I've been studying up on solar for about five years. I recently determined that it finally made sense to proceed with installation. I ended up getting four different quotes and ultimately decided on Intermountain Wind & Solar. Regardless of who the installer would have been, I was skeptical on what I'd end up with. However, I had gotten some great feedback regarding IW&S so I felt a bit more at ease. With regard to the final product and total experience, I'm unable to say that I could be any more happy. From the sales, planning, project management, and installers, these people are true professionals. To the day, my system is generating power and working towards a ROI of approximately 6.8 years. I plan to retire within a couple years after the system pays itself off. It's gonna be great to retire with an electrical bill of ~$10 per month. Also, I'm hoping my system over produces slightly as I'll be replacing some of my gas appliances with electric to maximize my benefit. Huge thanks to IW&S. I highly recommend these folks.

Response from Intermountain Wind and Solar

I'm seriously impressed with IW&S. It is simple to recommend them.

I am a do it my self person and had cells that i installed from years gone by. I was able to remove those cells and the installer use the same roof mount and fix the ones he had to remove. The job looks great they showed up on time finished and keep me informed on every thing that happened. The installers and electrician were fantastic in leaving things so i could add on when i get more. Friendly and happy employs very nice to be around.

Best Investment Ever!

From my initial meeting with Ben to when my project was completed the entire process was as smooth as butter. Ben is very knowledgeable and straightforward. No hidden surprises and he ensured I really knew how the competitive bids stacked up against IWS products and installation. The installers were so professional and were on site when they said they would be there. They used my third car garage for staging equipment and when everything was complete they actually cleaned my garage better than when they had first occupied it. Very impressive group of professionals. I would highly recommend this company!

Solar panels

I am very pleased with IWS. Their workmanship was great and done according to my needs. I wanted the panels to be very clean looking without any conduit or wire showing and they delivered what i wanted. I only have one conduit pipe showing in the garage with two small boxes for the controls and breakers. I have just gotten my first full month power bill which amounted to only the cost of being on the power grid. The amount of panels sold to me worked out perfectly.

Solar!

Intermountain Wind and Solar is by far the best contractor I have ever worked with. Our system was installed on a Saturday by the CEO and another owner of the company! I highly recommend Intermountain Wind and Solar to anyone looking for a solar installation. Our city inspector even told us that Intermountain does the best work that he has ever seen.

Layton UT Solar Installation

The company was great to work with. It's clear that they did everything they could to make sure I understood the purchase and the process. They gave me a great price. The company obtained some higher quality panels at a lower cost and passed the savings along. They could have easily sold those at a higher price and made more profit. They were good to keep me informed on what was happening and the time schedule. I definitely feel that I got a good deal and that I was treated more than fairly The only issue I had with the whole experience was a very minor suggestion with the installation crew. They were really nice, but could use some training on interacting with customers. They were just a little rough around the edges.
