Very happy indeed
I joined a local solar co-op, and the team chose Photon Brothers as the installer based on a fair amount of research by some energetic people. I can't imagine being any happier with the results. Almost everything went perfectly smoothly, and the one hiccough we did experience (the supplier didn't deliver the inverter when they had promised) was handled smoothly and efficiently, and everything was back on track two days later. I know just enough about electrical and electronic engineering to be dangerous, and therefore knew enough to ask irritating questions that normal folks would either not think to ask or the better educated would already know the answers to. As a result I asked a ton of questions, but all of them were answered promptly, helpfully, and with a smile. I'm now a little less dangerous :) Our project team, Eric and Krista, and the site workers who came here were all very friendly, helpful, accommodating, and again, I couldn't ask for more. We even got lucky with the power company who got our new meter installed and signed off in about two days, instead of the expected four to six weeks. Now our electricity meter is running backwards and we're very happy.

Krista Turnage and Eric Hopf of Photon Brothers were amazing!!
Krista was our sales rep and Eric was our project manager. They were amazing throughout the whole process. The communication, patience with our questions and general efficiency were top notch. I highly recommend Photon Brothers!! It took us less than two months to get from agreement to a working xcel meter. We are loving watching our solar production on the app and couldn't be happier with the reasonable cost and process in general!

Highly recommend Photon Brothers for home solar!
I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Photon Brothers. Krista was very easy to work with. The information she provided was clear and easy to understand and helped me make the right decision for my home solar configuration. Eric did a great job managing the installation and permitting process. The team has been easy to get a hold of and responsive throughout. The installers were friendly and efficient and clearly loved their work. The panels look great and I can't wait to start saving money and powering my home with clean electricity once Xcel powers on my system in the next week!

Great Company for Solar/PV Projects
I highly recommend this company. They are the real deal and their prices are very competitive. The project was completed in an amazingly short time. Their employees take great pride in their work, are very friendly, and take full ownership of projects from agreement-signing to project completion. I had some initial issues with cell communication with the Solaredge monitoring platform, but Photon Brothers changed out the inverter cellular card and is observing the monitoring.

Outstanding Solar Installation and Service
I purchased a new solar system from Photon Brothers which was installed in November, 2019. I selected Photon Brothers after careful review of five proposals from highly-rated installers in the Denver area. With careful analysis of the proposals to ensure apples-to-apples comparisons, I found Photon Brothers to be the best. It had the solar panels I preferred, the best design and placement of the panels, and the lowest cost. The installation was clean and attractive. Sam, Jerry and Tim, our installers, found ways to avoid externally visible conduit and ran all lines within the walls. Finally, the service was excellent. Our system had some start-up issues, mostly due to the heavy snowfall in November. Photon handled the issues with no hassles. After two months, I am still learning more by tracking the production meter, net meter and solaredge data. So far, production numbers seem to be on track to deliver what was projected in the proposal. Overall, we had a very positive experience with Photon Brothers.

Excellent Experience with Installation
For our solar system we contacted multiple solar companies and, ultimately, received proposals from 3 companies. Not only was Photon Bros the least expensive of the 3 companies, but they also had superior panels. Photon did an excellent job on the installation. Everything looked very nice on the house and the team from Photon was courteous, professional, and listened to all our input during the installation process. To-date (we have been "live" now for 3 weeks, we have had good solar generation and absolutely no issues.

Great
I'm a firm believer in renewable energy, I researched and consulted with at least 10 providers, and choose Photon Brothers becasuse they offered a program that I felt comfortable with, Price wise, installation times, etc.<br />They promised a date and we had to move it up because of some snow the night before, they installed the system and did the electrical work in a timely manner and did a very good job, the employees were very professional and friendly.<br /><br />Our system has been in operation since 12/26/18, the biggest drawback was Xcel that took approx 6 weeks to install their equiptment. but we are very happy with the production we are getting and WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY.

Best Home Improvement Experience Ever
We moved to CO in 2015, from CA, where we had previously had a photovoltaic solar installation on our single-family house. Our home here is a townhouse, in an HOA governed community. We were reluctant to seek approval of a rooftop system, as the roof is metal, and there is no attic. One of the HOA Board members did have a photovoltaic system installed, on their flat garage roof, so we checked out the installer. Having been through the process once, we knew generally what to expect. We were absolutely amazed at the professionalism, the quality of work, the dependability of all representatives of the company. Kris Tallent was our salesman and advisor, he set up a great system, fully explained every detail and was always available. Richard Szymanski was our lead field worker, he solved more issues with the city building inspector than I thought was possible, and was an outstanding electrician. And our primary main office contact, Itzia Romero, was always available, always had the answer, and always responded immediately. I felt like royalty working with this company. Absolutely great value for the price.

Excellent job
Had a 6.2 kW system installed in January 2015. Selected Photon Brothers because they were the best priced and most responsive of the Sun Power dealers in the area. System was installed and has been operational since without any problems, and is producing more than the estimate in energy. Very pleased with Photon Brothers and Sun Power panels.
Avoid Photon Brother for Solar P | Penrose, Colorado | 12/05/2018
Very Frustrating
This company operates like a start-up company. The appointments are changed or they are hours late, and the paperwork is not filed correctly. The COO makes excuses and really has no idea what is going on with his employees. The owner is more concerned with his ratings than doing the project correctly. They sold me too many panels which should have been confirmed with paperwork that was never filed with the local utility company. An incentives were missed due to lack of paperwork on behalf of Photon Brothers. The project took five long months to complete due to mistakes. The installers were nice and did the best they could, but had to come back several times because of missed steps. The product might be great, but I would look for another company for your solar panel needs due to the lack or organization.
