SolarTech Inc

Great Customer Service & Excellent Price

We have been debating getting solar for a couple of years now and after months of $300+ SDG&E bills we finally decided it had to be done. We got quotes from 4 different companies and in the end we went with SolarTech. Gino the salesman was very professional and easy to work with. He looked at our previous electricity bills to determine the best sized system to work for us. We settled on a 5.31 KW and it has been working flawlessly for the last 6 months. It's so nice seeing our SDG&E bills go from $300 to $21. The installation crew were timely and made sure to paint all the conduit to match the home. They cleaned up after themselves and didn't leave anything behind. If you are looking for solar make sure that SolarTech is on your list of companies to get a quote from. We highly recommend them!

Solartech Review

We began to consider Solar two years ago to address both environmental issues and rising energy costs. At the time a lease or long term payment plan was being offered which did not make economic sense to us. Earlier this Spring we renewed our interest & talked to several Solar companies with the intent to purchase a system. Our search led us to Eric Broderdorf and SolarTech. Eric was knowledgeable with a no pressure approach. The solar panels recommended were by SunPower, a US based product with independent power convertors/monitoring and a 25 year warranty, all of which was important to us. At that point we decided to choose SolarTech and turned our attention to the condition of the roof. Once again we considered several roofing companies. After meeting with Brad Stamm and comparing the Solar Tech Roofing proposal, we made the decision to renew the roof prior to the solar panel installation. The roof was replaced in a professional and timely manner. Our Solar Tech project manager, Grant Magoffin, was most efficient in coordinating the entire project. We were impressed with the installation of the panels as well as the attention to details and aesthetics of the electrical installation. Alex and his crew did a great job. In just six weeks from signing the original contract Charlene Reed was on site to coordinate the final inspection. In just a few days SDG&E gave us permission to initiate the System. The SunPower App is amazing. I can monitor the output of the solar panels on a daily/hourly basis and reflect the weekly, monthly, yearly as well as overall solar output to the grid vs our actual electrical usage. We recommend Solar Tech. There are many companies offering a solar solution. We found Solar Tech to be among the best. Bud & Judy Swartwood El Cajon, CA

Excellent products, even more excellent customer service

I write very few reviews but I love to read them. I called the top highly rated companies and a few recommended by friends and had several presentations. I'm a single mom and this was a very large purchase for me. Solar makes sense if you do it right. I averaged about $200/mo towards Edison and I was sure it was going to rise. Ali's presentation was the most impressive. He purchases small samples of the sun power panels and brings those along with the standard competitors' and lets you break them to see how sun-power is more durable and doesn't shatter like the other panels. And sun-power is American made. His pricing and financing also was the most impressive. And no pressure which I really appreciated so much. I went through SDMCU and bought down my rate to 2.99% for 12 years. After I get my rebate and apply that to my loan my payments are going to be less than $180 for 24 panels and solar pool heater. The solar pool heater didn't add much to my monthly payments I think about a $10 difference and allows me to enjoy my pool a bit more. Then the installation crew, they never ceased to impress me. The foreman, Miguel went beyond my expectations. He painted all the metal pipes, very professionally. Maintaining curb appeal. And very nice people. Then Tyler with his helper came a week later to install the solar pool heater. Another super nice, professional worker. After the install Charlene technical support came to set everything up. She is amazing. Very supportive and reassuring. She gave me her business card and told me to contact her for any concerns or questions and she lives close by if I have any problems with the system it would be no problem for her to come by. There were a few snags along the way but everyone was very responsive and accommodating. Ali would follow up and update me and followed up on customer satisfaction. Really great wonderful people who had quality products and even higher quality customer service. I really am very glad I went with Solartech.

SolarTech SunPower Solar Panel installation

Ali was awesome!!!! From day 1, when, we were referred and introduced to him. Our neighbor installed solar and they recommended Ali from Solar Tech to us. We were shopping and going around different solar installation companies. When Ali stopped by it all just made more sense about us going forward with the installation. Others were not sure to some saying it's up to you, while Ali researched and went thru our electric bill statements and on then recommended that we should install solar. Then the process started and until it was complete Ali was asking and updating us. Solar Tech has great 25year warranty and great product most efficient solar panels. I highly recommend them for your solar project. Also, they provide 24/7 monitoring mobile app that is indispensable. Great warranty and great product and great customer support. Thanks Ali! For answering all the questions and for great service.

Great Customer Service and Value

We recently finished our 3.35kW solar install with Solar Tech, and we are extremely pleased with the process and finished result. After dozens of quotes from local installers, I found Solar Tech offers the best value of any residential solar company. We were able to get a SunPower X21 Equinox AC system (with a 25yr warranty and one of the most efficient system options) at a price comparable to other mid-range systems. We also decided to upgrade our main service meter panel, which turned out great and gives us the capacity to add additional solar in the future if needed. Our energy consultant Drew was very professional and made sure that our install went smoothly every step of the way. This company values their customers regardless of how large or small the installation size is, and does a high quality job on the installation. I'd happily recommend Solar Tech for residential solar installations.

A Fifty Star Solar Company!!

If you are looking for a PV/Pool solar company that has most friendly and courteous staff, do their job on time, provide best workmanship, do not come up with additional costs and even assist the customer by going out of their way, I would highly recommend SolarTech!! I spent a few months and have searched and interviewed a number of solar companies, out of which SolarTech won my business, because of professionalism, honesty, quality product, workmanship and price. Eric and grant were very friendly and courteous, explained the entire process down to earth. Eric has kindly provided me with different options, to protect best of customer interest, on panels and recommended best places to install these for maximum electric generation. I've ended up signing a contract to install our solar PV and solar pool and entire pool system. They assisted me to select the best institution for financing. I was also planning to re-roof our house and their recommendation to work with J.B. Roofing was an excellent one!! From the first day of this project starting with tearing-off of our old roof, installation of new roof, installation of solar PV and solar pool, replacing new pool pump and pool filter all went exactly as promised and done to my exact satisfaction. During the process all of the staff involved (over 20!) were very careful, kind and did as much as they could to provide great service and workmanship. I think those companies that provide great service and competitive pricing must be supported and for this reason I highly recommend SolarTech.

Excellent technology at a great price

I went with SolarTech because of the quality of the product and payment options I could afford. We would up buying solar panels, an electric panel upgrade, a pool heater and a new pool pump for a great price. I was also really pleased with the quality and promptness of the service. The workmanship was seamless- no gaping holes or other problems. Very clean work. Staff was extremely responsive. I would highly recommend Ali Ibrahim for sales. He was our point person for the loan and contract. Shauna Harness was also extremely helpful with completing the paperwork and staying on top of the project. Would highly recommend this company.

Super Happy!!

I would like to say to thank everyone at Solartech. It was been a great pleasure to work with all of them. Eric the salesman was helpful from the beginning, answering all of my questions in a timely manner and keeping us within our budget and enabling us to get the large sized system we wanted to eliminate our electric bill. The installers were super friendly and very knowledgable and helpful. Any small or large question I had, they were able to answer in a way that made sense to me. In addition, after we signed the contract, the system was installed very quickly afterwards. Shauna-I appreciate all of your update emails and helping push through all of the necessary paperwork with SCE. Trying to navigate that on our own would have been a huge pain in the ass! And, finally, Charlene was very helpful in explaining the monitoring and what we could/should expect from our system. I truly appreciate everyone at Solartech and all of their great customer service. We’d much rather give them our money than the electric company :)

SolarTech #1 in San Diego!!!

Absolutely Amazing job done by the SolarTech crew. Jason Stringham (Owner) came in and had the best suggestions and knowledge. He ensures to explain how the system works and is readily available to meet or answer any questions before, during, and after the installation. The crew was very professional and give frequent updates. The customer service men and women (Ashley and Shauna) were kind, courteous, and extremely help. This company is by far the best in the business. Do not hesitate to call and hire them for all your solar needs. They are not a company just looking to sell you a producr they are there to ensure the customer is the #1 priority and your happiness is 1st!!!

Job Well Done

Solartech Team, I wanted to thank you all for a job well done! Being that I am a project manager by profession, I’ve worked with many subcontractors and can say that your company has been a pleasure to work with. After inspecting the finished product, I was pleasantly surprised to see the conduit painted to match. I fully expected to see ugly shiny galvanized conduit. Even the roof conduit and flashing was painted to match! Ryan and the rest of the guys did a fantastic job routing the conduit to be hidden, completing on time as explained and leaving a clean jobsite. The bottom line is that you were able to provide the best price, quality and professional coordination. I will highly recommend your company! Thank you all! Kiel

SolarTech is the way to go!

When it came time to purchase a solar power system for my home, I wanted to make an informed decision. I shopped around and met with 6 other providers on several occasions. As competitive as the solar energy market is for providers, SolarTech was by far the best choice to go with when it came to cost, quality of their product, knowledge of their product, and legendary customer service. I knew little to nothing when it came to solar energy systems for residential homes prior to my venture with SolarTech. The people at SolarTech were phenomenal; educating me on everything there is to know about solar energy systems. I went with the 9.8kw Sunpower system and it has done wonders for my SDG&E bill, $15 a month! Ali was extremely helpful and made himself available throughout the installation process, he was there every step of the way. Ali also helped me with a 200 amp. panel upgrade, I highly recommend this! SolarTech's project manager Grant was also helpful and available during the installation process from start to finish. Overall SolarTech is the way to go hands down. They are great people and pleasant to deal with.
