Amazing Solar Services

I wanted to install a solar system in my house for a long time. I took my time to research a few solar companies to make sure I was getting a good service for my money. Smart Solar Energy provided a high service during the entire process. I’m a general contractor, and I can find right away when a vendor is not being transparent on their services. Smart Solar Energy was able to answer all my questions and provide a great deal for the project. The timeline was completed on time and all the technicians involved provided an amazing service. My system is running properly, and I’m very satisfied with the service. I highly recommend this company.

All around Excellent

From beginning to end, Smart Solar did fantastic work. Initially and all throughout, it was clear that they were far more knowledgeable, transparent, and helpful than the other companies that had quoted us. The work was all done quickly and professionally. Highly recommended.

I can't praise more highly the information sharing process and customer support that we have received during our solar installation. Everyone at the company has been very responsive to all questions. I'm satisfied that future support will also be just as responsive. I was lucky to have a very skilled and talented father who could fix and build everything (including my house) and did so with great care, thrift, and the best quality of workmanship. It has caused me to have very high expectations and to be very particular about work done by companies or individuals that I hire. It can be a very stressful process for me--and sometimes for those doing the work :) All that said, I'm pleased with the overall result and experience. We only use electricity (no natural gas) for our appliances and we have electric zonal heaters, so solar was a smart investment for us. I really like using the EMA App to see how the system is producing power and I love checking my electricity bill to watch the (lack of) charges. I also liked the support, service warranties, etc. but the fact that the company will come and take the system down once in the next 25 yrs to accommodate re-roofing and then put the system back up really clinched it for us! I would definitely recommend Smart Solar...it's been a great experience for us.

Smart Solar is stellar

I have three friends in my area who have installed solar systems at the their homes in the last year. I got the name of each of their installation companies and did my research on-line. I decided to start with Smart Solar. After the first call with Smart Solar I knew that I didn't even need to call the others. My system is now up and running. The entire process went smoothly and they held my hand throughout the process. Every "i" was dotted and every "t" was crossed. I couldn't be happier. This was the best customer service I have ever received from any company. I have already recommended them to a friend who wants to add solar to his property.

Smart Solar Energy is a great value

We started seriously thinking about solar after we had a knock at the door from a solar sales person. We ended up speaking with several of the big solar installers and another couple smaller ones. They all wanted us to take huge low interest loans to buy a lower quality system than what we got with Smart Solar Energy. Smart Solar Energy allowed is to choose the equipment we wanted at no extra cost, and the overall cost was less than half what many others were trying to sell us. The install was delayed by a day because of illness then some paperwork wasn't left requiring a few extra days during install, but other than that they were great to work with and I highly recommend Smart Solar Energy.

Extremely Satisfied

After researching Solar options and speaking with numerous installers, we chose to go with Smart Solar Energy. I am so happy with this decision. Everyone (Taylor, Jordan, Jenn, Natasha and Devin) involved with the process has been informative and there were no surprises. Installation went as quickly as the permitting allowed. If you are in need of financing, they will walk you through the process as well as help with the Federal Tax Credit. I Highly recommend going with Smart Solar Energy if you are looking to go Solar, you won’t be disappointed.

Professional

Doing business with Smart Solar Energy was smooth and efficient. We had help every step of the way, and the installers even worked despite a very cold and windy rainstorm. Support before and after was very helpful and easy to contact. There was a wait for permits, but when they came through the installation was quick. A very efficient company.

Great Company for Solar

I contacted Smart Solar after searching for a Company in my area. Approved in Oregon by the Trust Uses quality equipment made in America Has a 25 year warranty on the complete installation They explain everything and used top notch software to get the solar numbers that worked for me. Sent a guy to my house to make assessments and install data. Handled all the permits and inspections. Walked me through everything and listened to my ideas and thoughts of the system. Did a profession job with Electricians and solar installers. Contacted the Power Company for my job. Answered all my questions in a timely manner via email. Very Professional company. I would give them a 10 if I could. Price is good with tax breaks

Thank you Smart Solar Energy!

We recently completed the addition of solar panels to our home. We elected to go with Smart Solar Energy, and we couldn't be happier. From the very first call, to the end of the installation process, the professionals at Smart Solar were reliable, communicative, and responsive. Our project manager, Jenn Showers, was available through every step of the way. Jenn took care of everything from permitting, to incentive submissions....everything! Do yourself a favor and if you're even considering upgrading your home or business with Solar, reach out to the folks at Smart Solar. Tell them Tina sent you! Their number is 503-694-4600.

Excellent company to work with.

Smart Solar was so amazing all the way through the process start to finish, including all permitting with the city and state. I had concerns about this process from reading about other solar companies, but these guys came through. From sales, to cost, to explaining the process everything went well, and it looks great. I spent many days researching different Solar companies in my area and narrowed it down to three which all provided the same Solar Panels and Inverters. The reviews for Smart Solar is what set them apart from the other two. Also, the price and service warranty is better with Smart Solar. Jordan, Taylor, Jen and all of the technicians were very professional and answered all of our questions. I have recommended them to our family and neighbors.
