Stellar Solar

Very pleased with Stellar Solar!

I selected Stellar Solar for my solar panel needs based on the reviews I had read and their top rating for the area over the last few years. I was not disappointed. My sales professional, Chase Hamiter, was very informative and kept me in the loop throughout the process. After the initial meeting, measurements were taken and plans drafted for my approval. They also recommended a roofing company to precede the panel install. Once the panels were up, we awaited the inspectors approval. Once approved in mid January, Stellar followed up with me to make sure the system was up and running and to assist with the Sunpower application that helps me monitor the system. No problems to date. Am very pleased with the product and process.

Great to work with!!

We recently worked with Stellar Solar on the installation of 28 solar panels for our home. We couldn’t be happier with the installation process and the workmanship. Everything was carefully explained and documented about the installment by Marc Cirelli and his follow-up continued after the job was completed. It was a pleasure to work with Stellar Solar and we are very happy on our reduced energy bill as well.

Excellent company!

What can I say about this company? Utmost professionalism throughout the whole process. Marc Cirelli was great to work with, very informative and synthesized all the hard to understand concepts simply for me. The install team was in and out in what felt like an hour, and did an amazing job on the installation, leaving no trace behind. The amount of money I am now saving is a huge relief, and I love seeing that $0 SDGE bill every month! Sunpower by Stellar Solar is truly an amazing company!!!!!

Great Product and Customer Service!

After receiving bids from various solar providers, we made the decision to move forward with Stellar Solar, and we couldn't be any happier with the end product. Marc Cirelli was the sales representative who was responsive to the questions we had, was not pushy, and provided us with a system design that fit our needs. Prior to making our decision I happened to cross paths with a Stellar Solar installer by the name of Mario, who was at Home Depot. Candidly, I asked him about Stellar Solar and the SunPower product to get a different perspective outside of the sales conversation with Marc. Both were consistent with their confidence in the SunPower panels and Enphase microinverters. This definitely influenced our decision to move forward with Stellar Solar. Throughout the process, communication was great and responses were prompt. The install team was professional, maintained social distancing practices (as the install occurred during the Covid-19 pandemic), and left our residence clean. I highly recommend Stellar Solar if you are searching for Solar Companies, they exceeded our expectations!

Glad we chose Sunpower by Stellar Solar

Our children used this company for their solar panels and highly recommended them. We were not disappointed. They were reasonably priced, professional, and quickly installed the panels. Marc Cirelli was a pleasure to work with.

No problems

I had a great experience with Stellar. We have lived in two homes in the last two years and used Stellar Solar to both. My current system has been producing power for the last two years and we are very happy with it. Communication was great and timelines were accurate. The sales rep contacts me approximately every 6 months to make sure everything is still going well. His name is is Conner Smith and his number is (760) 814-0932.

Excellent Company with Great Follow Though

I had contemplated getting solar power for our home for a number of years. Often the representative who came to our home was more of a sales person than an individual who wanted to understad our needs. Then I received a recommendation from a friend and shortly there after met with a representative for Stellar Solar, Marc Cirelli. He was excellent at listening to our needs and concerns. Prior to leaving our home he had provided all the necessary answers to our questions (member of panels, time frame for the job completion, and estimated date when it would be functional. Marc and the crews who provided the installation were timely, informative about the stages of installation and explaining next steps to be completed. The crews left each day after everything was put back in place with nothing left lying around. Great people to work with on this kind of project. Finally, now that the panels are up and running, right on schedule, I can only conclude this is an honest, skilled team of individuals who delivered exactly what had been promised. BTW - Marc was always available to answer any questions I had throughout the project. My personal recommendation on Sunpower by Stellar Solar, start with them and even if you want to acquire other estimates I suspect, like us. you will be hiring the team from Sunpower by Stellar Solar.

Best in the Biz

Sunpower by Stellar Solar did a fantastic job on my solar system. The install supervisor was friendly, knowledgeable and detail-oriented. The project came out looking so clean. Whole project was smooth from start to finish.

The best solar company for sure.

I have had my solar system installed about 3 years ago and I couldn't be happier. My electric bill has almost disappeared and I have 2 teenagers that love to use power. It is looking like I will have my ROI earlier than expected. So after 4 and a half years I will be producing free power for the next 20 years. Thank you Sunpower by Stellar Solar. I have recommended them to many of my friends and family so that they can start the savings that I am.

I did the research; this company IS the best option!

I started solar company research 4 years ago. I quickly canceled my research because all the companies pissed me off. It seemed like a complete scam/hustle. Then this year I started my research again. Solar power is too important, so I got back into the ring to, this time, pull the trigger and get it done. I have issues with getting the best quality at the best price. I got three quotes and then went full on into third party solar panel comparisons, all available for free online. I plugged in the exact panels each company was quoting me. SunPower was off ALL the charts in quality, production and warranty/lasting production. Absolutely, by far the best product. But that's not my only criteria, I expect very good customer care. My salesman Marc got me dialed in and permits acquired with very little effort on my part. I had an old roof, and asked a roofing friend to quote me replacing prior to solar install. Except I prefer all warranty work under the same company, so I contacted Marc to see what Stellar could do. He matched the roofing cost AND upgraded the singles to "Cooling Series" for no additional cost. Sorry for such a long review, but the best is yet to come. The installation crew. Luis, Ken, Robert and Matt. So way above and beyond in every task. Painted all my vents to match the brand new metal trim they installed. Replaced dry rot wood panels, took care of my dog Bowser, cleaned up better than when they arrived, and were the most friendly, accommodating, efficient and fun crew I could ask for. Complete 24 panel system, with brand new roof, installed to perfection AND cleaned up in 5 days!! I've done your research for you. This company is your best option! Feel free to hit me up with any questions. This company is worth it!

SunPower Powers My Mind

Stellar Solar SunPower panels are cheaper than paying the monthly SDG&E bill. That should be reason enough to use them. It gets better. I knew the above fact and contacted Marc Cirelli, who became my consultant from that day and will always remain so, he is just a call or text away. The next day, he had his team conduct an inspection to provide options for my system and was able to provide me with quotes that same night. I realized immediately that Stellar Solar could install enough panels for me to be net positive, never having to pay an electric bill again--and all for about $150-200 less per month (on average, with summer bills that tend to balloon) than I'd pay SDG&E. Now, they are paying me, as they buy the electricity back. The installation was done in one day, including two 240 volt outlets in our garage for our electric cars. When done, they sent a great Technician out to commission our system, which enabled power generation information that is visible via the SunPower Monitor app. Loving it. Thanks, Marc!

Stellar Solar exceeded my expectations

I had a fantastic experience with Stellar Solar. Connor always answered my calls and emails promptly and the on-site crew was terrific. I would definitely recommend Stellar Solar to anyone considering the installation of a solar system.

Professional, courtesy and highly skilled

I am very happy with my solar panels and my solar set-up. Dave Gersz and Mario and his crew were all very courtesy and professional. I interviewed several different solar companies and I was most impressed with the Stellar Solar Sunpower system and pleasantly surprised that they were on the low end of the estimates I received. Great team, great outcome.

Perfect

Met with Dave Gersz at my home to learn about SunPower Panels. no pressure, just facts and how it would all progress should i move forward with Stellar Solar. of course after he left, i went down my own rabbit hole of internet research which only confirmed what he told me earlier in the day. Dave was there every step of the way, (before and after signing the contract) checking in and answering any questions i had. the install team: everyone was professional and friendly. it was obvious that aesthetics and the quality of the install were important to them...i particularly appreciated having the crew respect my home and have a sense of responsibility to get it right. we've been nonstop at this house since we moved in so i've been dealing with plenty of contractors, tradesmen etc, and these guys have been top notch...and quite frankly a breath of fresh air. once the panels were up, they scheduled the inspection and even though they told me it could be up to a week for SDGE to give us our Permission to Operate green light, i got mine the day after the inspection. everything was handled by them and i just had to field emails or phone calls to set up times i would be home, which was simple because i work from home. the onsite tech walked me through how to login/use the monitoring app and how to flip the breakers on once we received PTO. seamless, professional and simple. there's a lot of solar installers out there, which, if you're reading this review, you know. Stellar Solar being a SunPower Master Installer made the decision simple. i suppose it's a personal decision whether you want SunPower or Panasonic or LG or whatever panels. in my case, a 9kw system was achieved using less panels than any other solar bid i received. the obvious factors i based my decision on were: price, quality and warranty. efficiency was sort of important to me, but not a limiting factor. a 9kw system will produce the target numbers regardless if it's 26 panels or 30 that gets you there. quality and especially their warranty, easily brought SunPower to the top...which unfortunately also puts their price point into the 'premium' category. if you've come this far, my final suggestions is to really look into the specifics of the warranties on your bids: who will be answering the phone on the other end, and who will be responsible for fixing any issues you have with your system.

Another satisfied customer

Stellar SunPower truly is a stellar supplier and installer of a quality product. My salesman Keith Davies stayed involved from start to finish. No high pressure sales tactics just great service and coordination. I have to say I was concerned about any work on my lightweight concrete tile roof. No issue we these guys. They have a first class roofer with many years experience and that truly showed in the finished project. I also was very impressed with the on staff electrician. We did an upgrade from a 100 amp service to a 225 amp service with new sub panel and breakers. Very clean. Now I can run that new pool house I plan to build with no shortage of power. Of course there are the panels themselves. Aesthetic design and generating up to 50 kWh per day this month.

Solar

From sales to completion everything went great, even the installers replaced several broken tiles from golf ball damage. Everyone was very friendly and professional. Love watching the power going back to the grid. Regards, M.Harris

My representative Michael Powers has been extremly helpful and knoledgable. I would and do recommend him to everyone.
