Solar-Ray, Inc.

Fast, Easy, Affordable

Solar-Ray promptly answered all my questions and provided all information that I needed. They provided a written quotation the same day that I met with them...and it was affordable. They were prompt, efficient, courteous, and clean. I was amazed at how quickly they had my system installed and operating! I've already recommended them to my neighbor and my married daughter.

Proof is in the details...

First week of operation gave 53-54 kWh's per day, these were sunny February days. Even during an overcast day, still pulled 20 kWh's. Needless to say, my house doesn't use 50kwh in one day, so we're looking great! !!!

This is the one....

...you've been looking for. I researched a few solar companies and decided to have Solar-Ray come onsite and discuss a 10Kw setup. Everything was simple, easy to understand & no hidden BS. It's easy to be confused about a technology most people don't know anything about - the truth is in the details & Solar-Ray has it covered. They installed a finely tuned 10Kw system and wow does it perform. In the first 2 hours it generated almost 6Kw - in January! We are super satisfied with our investment and feel like we couldn't have made a better choice. If you're thinking about doing Solar.....this is the one your looking for.

Looking forward

I am looking forward to the savings I'll realize because of my new solar panels. The whole process of working with Solar-Ray was a good one. From the initial contact to the last communication with the office, I was completely satisfied.

Love the Sun

This is the 3rd installation of solar I've had. The first two were just for hot water. I'm very excited that this one is for overall electricity. The first contact I had was with a young man who explained the whole idea of PV to me. I was given information that was interesting and relevant. I had asked a question that he was not 100% sure of the answer and he called Michael Brown, the owner, and was given the answer. Knowing that the owner was so readily available to answer questions was comforting. The installation of 12 panels took about 6 hours. Carl, the field engineer, showed me the panel that displays the information about the current and explained what it did and how it shows it. He told me to call the office if I had any questions and they would be happy to help. I am very happy with my decision to have Solar Ray install my PV system and am happy to recommend them.

Solar-Ray installed our current PV system in 2007 and we have been very happy with it. I have recommended Solar-Ray to many people over the years, and will continue to do so.

Happy Customer

We had a whole house 9 K grid tied system installed by Solar-Ray and we couldn't be happier! Before making our decision, we interviewed several other area solar companies and were quoted prices for installation. We chose Solar-Ray because we were impressed by their commitment and knowledge in the solar industry. They didn't try to sell us hot water or other add ons like some of the other companies we contacted. We simply got the best equipment and guarantees at the best price on the market from the most knowledgeable company we could find, and that was Solar-Ray. We found their staff pleasant, helpful, neat and knowledgeable. Every interaction with the staff went above and beyond our expectations and made our purchase and installation experiences seamless and pleasant. They did what they said they would do when they said they would do it. Any issues or problems that occurred during installation were solved without protest, requests for additional money or involving us. (i.e. the need to add an additional fuse box, wiring and plugs). All inspections were passed with flying colors and we love our new equipment!! I highly recommend Solar Ray to anyone that is interested in going solar. I rejoice on every sunny day knowing that our system is quickly paying us back and will continue to do so for the next 30 years!

From day 1, Salesman, Office staff, the owner Mike, the Install crew and final meeting with supervisor could not have gone better. Being in the construction business, I'm very impressed and pleased! To top it all, a great price. I highly recommend this company to anyone considering Solar. Very Professional.

Exceptional Installer/Contractor!

We bumped into Solar Ray's owner Mike Brown purely by chance at the Hurricane Expo earlier this year and after just a few minutes discussing options I realized just how knowledgeable this person was and ended up finding it hard to leave their booth. But we did get a rough quote that seemed manageable and helped us start to give serious consideration to doing a project. I had been thinking about installing a solar pv system but not giving it serious consideration until my wife and ultimately my desire to be good citizens of our green planet forced me to find Mike's card and get one of his sales staff to stop by and formalize a quote. I hadn't done much research, but after Kevin our salesman came well prepared with satellite photos of our home and recommended configuration along with what sounded like a very fair price, we signed a contract. After committing to doing the project, I felt obligated to do some due diligence, although I felt very comfortable after our meeting Kevin that these guys were focused on providing the very best in Solar Power systems and had significant installation history with both commercial and residential installs, and some very large ones to support our decision. Plus, and I will emphasize this, their only business is solar, unlike the many electrical or plumbing or pool contractors who do water heaters/pool heaters regularly but power as a sideline. I did several quotes after researching the most reputable firms and Solar Ray was the most competitive of them all! The project was done on time, all paperwork, permits, communication with Utilities,etc. handled by Solar Ray. Crew was absolutely the "BEST"!!!! They were on time, got my feedback to options for the installation location and answered every question I had and more. I am a very detail oriented individual and can be very critical of others work, but the Solar Ray crew exceeded my expectations! They clearly were extremely critical of their own work and I felt my project was in good hands and indeed the finished product was top notch! The city electrical inspector visited and was extremely impressed, commented several times how great the job had been done, and that this is the way they all should be installed. He even took photos. So... we were up and running online 9/12/15 and anxiously waiting for our first electric bill... September wasn't the best month weather wise and we were online for just a part of the month... But our bill came and we owed only $84 for a month that would have cost us $191 and was a "peak" month for usage. Expect to owe close to nothing for October when total usage starts to drop with cooler temps and better weather. I am very pleased with the results without even seeing a full month of production. If you are considering installing Solar Power, based on my experience, your best choice for sales and installation is clearly Solar Ray!

Residential 8kw pv installation

Shopped around for a 8 kw pv system and Solar Ray were by far the lowest quotation They were very helpful throughout the entire installation process with very helpful and polite installers They were always very prompt with any questions and responded very quickly by phone and e-mail I have absolutely no problem in recommending this company and rate them as a 5 star company

Super Solar!

We shopped several solar companies and Solar-Ray stood out with excellent communication, professionalism and service! We are so happy we chose them for our Solar panels. Everyone we dealt with made the process educational and effortless. From the initial sales, to the office scheduling, to the installers and the owner! They were all committed to making sure we are completely satisfied with our system. The price and quality were competitive with the other companies, but the communication and workmanship rises above! They worked with our schedule to get us up and running and saving energy as fast as possible. We couldn't be happier!

Residential PV Installation

I highly recommend this company. After checking out at least 2 other companies I decided to go with these folks. The sales presentation was very non-threatening and highly informative. I spend at least one month researching on this topic. I must have emailed and texted them countless times and they responded promptly to all my inquiries. They recommended a lending bank that approved me much sooner than my local credit union. The paperwork was quick and easy to understand. I requested and got phone contact info for several satisfied customers. The price included everything - there were no 'hidden fees' . That installation crew arrived in a timely manner. They completed the installation of my roof-based 10K system in less than a day. I had numerous questions about the system after the project completion. The sales and technical staff continued to respond promptly and courteously.

PV and solar hot water

I investigated three companies before choosing Solar Ray. Solar rays reviews were good, and others had commented on the value they got in their system. I thought Solar Ray's quotes were the best and were reflective of the positive reviews they had previously received. I was pleased with their installation and I am very pleased with the system and would recommend strongly to anyone considering it PV solar system.

We're so happy

We hired Solar Ray to install our solar system last October (2014). The installation team was very professional. They were finished ahead of schedule and the workmanship was high quality and their material were of the highest quality. I have no doubt that my installation will last a long time. But the great news is my average electric bill was $267.00 ($3,204/year). In the month of January - April my bill was $8.34, which I was told was a minimum bill to maintain my account at FPL. In April we received a credit for excess power generated from FPL and we have not had any bill since then. We are now in September and we will use up the remainder of our credit so we may actually have to pay something. Our projected bill at this point is $42.00, ( a far cry from $267!). We are very happy with Solar Ray as a company. They are responsive to our questions and needs. I feel that they are one of the best companies I have ever hired because they delivered on their promise to practically eliminate my electric bill. I had to admit I was skeptical in the beginning but not anymore. Good job, Solar-Ray!

Saving more than expected!

Solar Ray installed a 5kw pv array for me in July of 2014. I'm not one for reviews so I waited a year to see actual production and savings vs what their sales specialist, Jeff, had proposed. Not only was he thorough and accurate, my system has outperformed his estimates! If you're in the market for solar do yourself a favor and call Solar-Ray. I got at least 5 estimates and they offered the best price from the start and didn't give me a pushy used car sales approach. And the installers? Professional, courteous, and non smokers. I couldn't have had a better experience.

Great Company

I spent a lot of time researching solar energy. When I found this company, it was everything I had been hoping for. From the introduction and explanation of how it would work specifically on my house, the installation and to the follow-up, I was very pleased.

Worth the wait

For a number of years I've been following the development of PV hoping to tap in the future. With our new home finally finished we started researching potential companies. We narrowed it down to 3 and arranged for them to visit and tell us their best points. Solar Ray went so far as to invite me to come by their warehouse/office. The visit sealed the deal. This operation is pristine, professional and totally immersed in solar.

Solar System Repair

Solar-Ray, and its owner Mike Brown in particular, did an excellent job fixing my existing PV solar system. I was one of the unfortunate ones that bought into Blue Chip's marketing a few years back and had them install a 10 kW system. Most folks are aware of that company's demise, so I was dreading the day when my system would need service. That day finally came about a month ago when my inverters started faulting out. Most companies would have been hesitant to touch a system from a bankrupt company, but Mike was very supportive and extremely responsive to see what he could do to get my system back up and running. Within a few weeks, Solar-Ray had diagnosed the system, designed a fix and had the new inverters installed. Bottom line, the new inverters are a huge upgrade over the old Blue Chip equipment and moreover give me real time insight into the overall production of the system.

10 Kw System

Solar-Ray not only talks the talk, they walk the walk. Sales, installation, office, and employees really care about their customers. From my first contact with Ellsworth, who designed our system, to the warehouse, to the scheduling, and the crew that installed my 10 Kw system (in ONE day)everyone was knowledgeable, friendly, courteous, and above all Professional. If you are even thinking about a solar PV system, look no farther than Solar-Ray.

Honesty

I am very interested in a grid tied system for my home and I am very appreciative that Solar-Ray was honest with me. Due to shading did was not practical to install a system. It is good to see honest business people still exist.

Thrilled with Solar-Ray

We are so happy that we chose Solar-Ray to install our solar panel system. Michael is extremely knowledgeable and one of the few installers that is solar certified. Every one in the company is professional, easy to deal with and completes tasks with a sense of urgency. We definitely recommend Solar-Ray. It's a pleasure to deal with them.

I am so happy and proud to find company called SOLAR RAY INC.

Very profissonal and will recomand your company to my family and friends.

Above expectations

I did allot of research (about 4 years) and finally chose Solar-Ray because of the price and reputation. I believe I chose wisely. I selected a 10 kw, roof-mounted system. From start to finish, they have been great. I am a recipient of an energy company rebate so I was initially worried about getting everything done on time. This was not an issue at all! I was completed way ahead of schedule. I am still waiting on my bi-directional meter and rebate, so it is a waiting game with the energy company and NOT Solar-Ray. So far, they have done everything they have said they would and exceeded my expectations, to include submitting the paperwork and doing everything with the energy company that they can. The only thing I had to do was submit my initial application for the rebate, which they totally prepared me for. I am truly satisfied with everything so far and I can't wait to get my meter and go hot! I will certainly be back to provide an update after I evaluate the system. To this point, I highly recommend solar and if you are going to do it, I highly recommend Solar-Ray, Inc.!

Reliable, efficient, professional Solar Company!!

We received 10 estimates from different contractor for our PV system. Chose Solar-Ray because from the start Michael Brown was sincere with the advice he gave about the different products. He answered my of my questions and the price was unbeatable. When the crew came out for the install, they were on time & very efficient with getting the system in. I can't say enough great things about this company.
