Highly Recommend. Exceeded Expectations
Very good experience with SolarMax through the entire process to PTO. I started out with a different provider from LA that wasn't going well. My neighbor recommended SolarMax, and couldn't be more pleased. My install was more involved than most, as it included a Tesla Battery with a Gateway and Sub-panel. I live in west Ventura County, and the installers were on time, professional, and knowledgeable. Can't say enough good things about the support & staff, especially the program manager Noe Lopez. Through the process, which takes longer waiting for a battery, Noe was always straight up and consistent on what to expect, and provided good technical support. Ashley, in Utility & HOA, was always on top of things, keeping the SCE PTO on track. From my experience and that of my neighbor, SolarMax was an excellent choice. Highly recommend.

We were completely happy with Solarmax! Dan Cooley is the best sales representative! He has answered every question we had from day one! Our electric bill went from $400 per month to $4.00 and can’t be happier!

SolarMax Tech Review
I worked with Brandon Mezzanatto at SolarMax Technology and have been thrilled with the overall service since my first phone call. Brandon was thorough in his consultation and both patient and knowledgable with my numerous follow up questions. I interviewed multiple companies and could not be more thrilled with my decision to go solar and enlist the services of Brandon and the rest of the team. The entire process from consult to activation was smooth and trouble free. At every stage members of SolarMax Technology would communicate timelines and provide updates on the project. I cannot help but compare the quality of installation to other homes in my neighborhood and I am pleased each time with the attention to detail and thoughtfulness of the SolarMax Installation team. I would not hesitate to recommend Brandon and SolarMax again and again. The system is exceeding expectations so far.

Solarmax: Great Job Brandon Mezzanatto and Team!
We've considered Solar for about 4 to 5 years now and even went as far as design stage with two other companies but were turned off with experience. After listening to the 5 Year no interest plan on the Radio, we tried again. I manage my Company Sales Team and don't appreciate a hard sell. From the very beginning Brandon Mezzanatto proved we had nothing to worry about. He was far from a hard sell and simply informed us and enabled us to make a decision suit our needs. I liked that he tailored it to suit us once he understood we had previously explored Solar and knew the pros and cons. Entire Team and experience was excellent. Great Communication and excellent response from Brandon Mezzanatto Sales and Project Manager Joshua Progue as needed.

SolarMax System Has Worked For Me
So far I am completely satisfied with my Solar Max system. The whole process was done very professionally and double checked all through the process. Brandon Mezzanatto came to our home and completely explained the start to finish process. As I explained to him at the time, I had already had several other solar companies over to the house and listened to them and got their quotes also. As I had explained to all of the solar reps, I had worked construction for over 30 years myself and of course was interested in a fair price, but needed to feel good about the company that would get my business. I was impressed with SolarMax and was really impressed with their Riverside facility. I just ended my 3rd complete month of being Solar Powered. I went a little over the recommended amount of panels, from what I have seen so far, I should never have an electric bill again, with the exception of the monthly minimal $12-$15 service charge. Plus I am building up credits each month that should add up to hundreds of dollars for power sold back to SCE at the end of the year. The online monitoring tells me from anywhere what my system is doing 24/7. Again I would say that SolarMax has done what they promised andI am pleased.

Nothing But The BEST
What a wonderful experience. My wife and I have been considering going solar for quite sometime and finally decided to do some research. I had heard an ad for SolarMax on KFI radio, and after another quote from a local solar company called SolarMax for a second quote. The representative Brandon Mezzanatto came to our home and went over the entire process within about an hour. As per their suggestion both my wife and I needed to be there so we both could make an informed decision on whether or not solar would work for us. Again this was our second presentation and what a difference. Not only was the price substantially less but Brandon Mezzanatto,s presentation and information was stellar in it's completeness, and to the level as to where my wife and I could easily understand the savings and process of installation and financing. He also helped us understand that if or when we go to sell out home that we needed to find a real estate agent versed in selling a property with solar. Through out the entire process (aprox. 3 weeks) from agreeing and signing paperwork we were producing our own energy (amazing). In the first 3 months with our air conditioner running at 76 degrees 24/7 with 4 TV,s 3 refrigerators / freezers and ceiling fans our energy towards our yearly bill was $7.47. My wife who pays all the bills thanks me weekly for going solar. Being able to run the air comfortably and not have to worry about the previous year of $300 to $700 summer electric bills. Lastly our consultant Brandon Mezzanatto was amazing through out the entire process during and after. Every time I called he answered his cell phone every time and had my answers immediately. All rebates also came in a timely fashion. I HIGHLY recommend Brandon Mezzanatto and SolarMax for your solar. Best thing we have ever done for our finances and renewable energy.

Service excellence
From start to finish the process was painless and straight forward. When you compare what Solar Max has to offer versus what else is available in the market, very few even come close to what guarantees and product are given. The panels are made in the U.S. by Solar Max. It makes for easy service if by some remote chance you do need it. We had others pitch their products and service. If you're looking for the honesty and fast high quality product and workmanship, so with Solar Max

Great experience
Solarmax installed 22 solar panels in my home. The whole process went very smooth. Starting with meeting their Sale Rep Brandon Mezzanatto till finalizing the installation. Brandon made everything crystal clear to me from day one; how many panels i am getting, what type of panels, he walked me thru the whole process from the 1st day. He remained my main point of contact till the end, answering questions and facilitating the transaction. Solarmax electricians and technicians are very well trained, I work as hospitals inspector and i know when the worker is skilled or not. All the products installed in the system were UL listed, the solar panels are Made in USA. My 1st electrical bill after installation was $10, compared to couple hundreds before the installtion. Their prices are very competitive, there is always a room for negotiation too. The overall experience went very smooth.

Awesome Customer Service!
Our panels were just installed last week and Brandon was out to turn on our system today after receiving approval from Edison, looking forward to the savings! From the start of the process, our sales rep Brandon has been here to make sure everything was moving forward and the project was completed as he described. We had bids from other solar companies in the area and Solar Max was not only the best value, but Brandon took the time to thoroughly explain how solar power works and the smartest options for us to apply to our home. We will definitely recommend Solar Max and Brandon to others.

We've had an exceptional experience working with Brandon Mezzanatto. Brandon walked us through every aspect of the process and was available to answer questions and offer input. The entire staff at SolarMax was attentive, professional and efficient. We would highly recommend SolarMax! Our electric bills have been close to nothing and we have since paid off the system in full, so we're looking forward to a credit from our electric company this year!

Super smart move on our part! As we approach retirement age, we've been trying to make home improvements that would make our home meet optimal efficiency... SolarMax helped us do this with our electric bills!

I had my system installed by SolarMax after looking at several others. SolarMax was by far the best choice, my Salesman Dan C stayed with the installation the whole way and helped to work through the process. He was extremely knowledgeable and down to earth and honestly helped convence me how spending the money now would save me thousands later. They system went up as promised and so far it is exceeding the output that was it was specified to do. So, YES I'm extremely happy with my system, so much so my son and his friend all get their system from Dan C also.

Great and Easy Installation
My experience with Solar Max was fantastic. The Sales Person Marvin, was very patient as I kept delaying moving forward but then re-engaging months later. Once I decided to move forward the installation was smooth and sweet. I even needed some equipment on the wall moved and they came out at their expense and moved the equipment to a safe location! Fantastic experience!!

Solarmax was a great choice!
We are so happy with the install of our solar system that we purchased through Solarmax. Brandon Mezzanatto came over to the house and took about 45 minutes with us on what to expect, how fast it would be and our different options for pricing and payment. If he told us there would be an install in 2 weeks, there would be an install in 2 weeks. Everything that he said he stood by and made happen. He definitely was not a pushy sales guy like a lot of the Solar sales people are. We also financed our system through Solarmax and the finance department was fast and made the process painless. All in all we are very happy with our system and would highly recommend Brandon at Solarmax to anyone!

Couldn't be more pleased
A pleasant experience, from start to finish. Start with Nav, my sales consultant. He was knowledgeable and patient. Answered all of my newbie questions. Worked with me to slect between lease and purchase (purchased!) and to customize the system and pertinent dates to my needs and schedule. Some small delays in the approval pipeline because my house is an oddball; it shares a common wall with a neighbor. The HOA was very much a stickler in protecting his interest. I understand that, but it gummed up the works a bit in the middle. Christine in the SolarMax office was a joy to work with: warm yet professional, friendly, and funny. The installers I met were top-notch. Zee, Christian, and CJ were quick, professional, tidy, and concerned with my requirements. Zee, in particular, took a lot of time to consult with me as he routed the cables and mounted the monitoring box as unobtrusively as possible. CJ took equal care on the roof to make the cable run up there as well camouflaged as could be. There are still a couple of outstanding minor cosmetic issues that Solar has agreed to finish up, but my expectations were exceeded.
Response from SolarMax Technology
Those two cosmetic issues I mentioned have both been satisfactorily addressed.

Great Service, Equipment, and Price
We had a great experience with Brandon Mezzanato and SolarMax. Truly a 5-Star experience. SolarMax is well organized and kept us informed throughout the process. They provided top rated solar panels and microinverters and were thousands of dollars less than quotes we received from other vendors (and those other vendors were quoting lesser quality panels and inverters). We highly recommend Brandon and SolarMax.

Since the beginning of the solar Installation process my sales representative, Pete Herrera, has made my experience a tranquil and credible one. He came to my home and sat with me personally to discuss all of the options SolarMax had to offer; followed by reviewing what options would personally work and fit best for myself and my home’s conditions. Pete was so dependable and knowledgeable on the topic of solar that I couldn’t help but to pass on his expertise to my mother who lived directly across the street from me. We walked over to my mother’s home the very same day I signed my contract. The process for my mother was just as easy and smooth as my own. So smooth and trustworthy that my mother then signed her very own solar contract the same day! We were both very happy with everything and everyone throughout the process. Everyone we came in contact with from SolarMax was friendly, reliable, and responsible when it came to their work. Unfortunately, soon after the process began, my mother passed away. At this point, the one thing I couldn’t stop thinking of is what I was going to do with this extra solar system on my mother’s home??? The stress began, so I then called Pete for his suggestions and recommendations. All I could remember from his call was him emphasizing “not to worry about it, it’ll be fine.†Just when I thought things couldn’t go more smoothly, it actually did. Pete was able to make the transition process as simple as could be. He was able to transition the solar system from my mother’s name to the new found owners of her home, leaving me stress free. If everyone at SolarMax is as awesome as Pete and the crew we were introduced to, I highly recommend working with SolarMax Technology, Inc.! Marilyn Wanderscheid ((Mom) James Wanderscheid

Pete Herrera Rose Dobbs 11:01 AM (7 minutes ago) to SOLAR To whom it may concern: Your employee Mr. Pete Herrera has been a very conscientious and excellent representative for Solar Max. From the moment that he met with us to explain your company and what we could expect it has been very rewarding for my wife and I. We are both extremely pleased with the results. Mr. Pete Herrera answered all our questions and concerns, carefully walking us through what would take place step-by-step. He continued to follow through with periodic phone calls and visits to be sure everything was running according to what he had planned for us. Pete was sure to coordinate times that would work for us and for his workers that would coincide with our various schedules. He would stop by on many occasions to review and go over the plans for the solar panels where they would be placed on our roof. We also had thermal panels for our pool that needed to be moved and he took all that into consideration and worked out yet another placement for them and the solar panels from the original plans. Mr. Herrera made sure to find someone to move the thermal panels prior to the solar panels being installed. Mr. Herrera never missed a beat in the whole process of having are solar panels installed. Mr. Herrera found an excellent worker named Jason to come over and move our thermal panels for our pool to the back roof of our home. Jason did a phenomenal job and worked extremely hard to complete this moving process in a reasonable amount of time in very, very hot weather. Once again my wife and I want to express to Solar Mac how pleased we have been with this whole process since it began with that first visit from Mr. Pete Herrera, we couldn't be more satisfied. Pete Herrera, Jason, and all of the other installers that came over worked efficiently and thoroughly under extremely hot weather to get this job done. We are so very grateful for each and every employee of Solar Max that made all this possible for my wife and I. We certainly will highly recommend your company to our friends and neighbors because of the high standard of work demonstrated by Mr. Pete Herrera and all of the men he made sure were there to do the job and to do it right.

Great - exactly as promised
Given this is a pretty large purchase I spent considerable time learning about solar energy, the utilities, costs and the related pieces of information required for an informed decision. I worked with SolarMax and SolarCity. The contrast between the two companies were striking. SolarCity was hard sell, sign now, keep things mysterious and even try to frighten me into signing with them. After I had told them I was going with SolarMax their regional VP even sent me a flaming email warning me how I was making a terrible and tragic decision that I would essentially regret forever. It was choke full of misinformation unlike anything I had ever seen. I called him out on it and shared the email with SolarMax as it was absolutely inconsistent with good faith business practices. In any case SolarMax was spot on with everything they promised and said. The communication throughout the sales process was first class. My guy, Brandon, was incredibly responsive and informed. The SolarCity sales rep constantly needed to get information from the main office. The SolarCity rep worked around my work hours to give me the time face to face I needed. He worked hard to give me all the information about solar, the panels, the regulations, etc. I appreciated the transparency very much. Additionally, SolarMax was able to get me 10% more power (could have given me more but the cost didn't justify it - SolarCity was 'locked into' particular panels that had weaker power generation) at 20% less cost. Installation took two days exactly as promised. Installation was clean and seamless and from what I could tell all equipment is top quality. Now the system has been running for 6 months and power generation is spot on what was promised (ie it's a bit higher than what was guaranteed). I'm thrilled with the system and everything about SolarMax. Last comment - post sales service: I made changes to my WiFi system last week and it knocked off my solar link. SolarMax's service was spot on with the exact right information to let me get back online within minutes. They made it easy. As you can tell I fully recommend SolarMax and I hope you have the same positive experience that I did.

We are now up and running on solar from SolarMax with SunRun panels!! We spoke with several other companies and we are so glad we chose SolarMax. We are so happy to finally be GREEN! Our Sales Agent, Brandon Mezzanatto, is amazing and extremely knowledgeable. He stayed in touch with us through the entire process, answering every question immediately and completely. He helped us understand that going solar is not an overnight process. There are many steps along the way that involve the electric company, the installers, the inspectors, the panel manufacturer, etc. If you want to drastically lower your electrical cost by this summer, I strongly urge you to start your process now. It is well worth it. I highly recommend SolarMax and especially Brandon.
