Whidbey Sun & Wind

Very professional, friendly and efficient staff from Salesperson, CFO and installers.

Paul, the company rep. was personalable and knowledgeable with a willingness to explain something even if we had already been told. The crew members that installed the panels were hard-working courteous, and respectful- had a lot of expertise- acted professionally- and paid attention to customer satisfaction. We would and we have recommended them to others.

Work area was kept very clean. No problems encountered.

WW&S staff were professional and easy to work with. Seems like a good place to work. And we enjoyed having them around because of their pleasant attitudes. We have received the incentive from SnoPUD.

Very enjoyable experience...the crew was hardworking, considerate of plantings, and fun to be around. It was just finished today so inspection has not yet happened. I am sure that if things need to be corrected they will be.

We found Whidbey Sun and Wind to be a very professional organization, offering a variety of products in order to receive the result we wished. They answered all our questions and if they didn`t know the answer immediately, research it and let us know.

During the final inspections from L&I and Kevin Case from Puget Sound energy both asked me who did the install. I told them Whidbey Sun and Wind and both said "They do good work" and signed off without any problems. I would recommend Whidbey Sun and Wind.

The Whidbey Sun & Wind crew that performed the estimate and installation are Great! They were a pleasure to work with, and the work was completed in a timely fashion. The only glitch was in the ordering of the remote monitoring console, but that was resolved with a follow-up visit in January (the company providing the console was closed during the holidays). The installation went smoothly and everything was neat and tidy when they were finished. I am so far very happy with my grid-tied solar installation! As for references, I did not need to ask for any because when I would mention to someone that I was getting solar installed, they would ask "who is doing the installation ? " and when I told them Whidbey Sun & Wind, the response was something like: "They`re great my (mother, brother, neighbor) had them do an installaion and they love it!" No Purchase rebate, however, there are Federal tax rebates available for the tax year installed, and the state pays an energy credit for green energy produced. These definately were a factor in the timing of the installation, but I believe that we would eventually have installed solar or wind generated power at some point.

It was a pleasure working with Whidbey Sun and Wind. Everything went as planned and their were not corrections needed during the installation. The one change I requested for the eGuage monitoring system was pleasantly coordinated and installed. I`m looking forward to getting solar hot water next year.

This system was installed in 3 days! I was so impressed with the team. Very courteous and friendly people.

Their workmanship was standard state-of-the-art. What more could we expect/ Their attitude was exceptional in today`s market. They earned our trust. Other bids were not obtained. We trusted the experience of a friend who did such a cost and ability survey and used their services for installation of a similar PV system. Their being local was a plus. Utility inspection and hookup has not yet occurred. It is expected tomorrow.

Everyone was extremely professional and good at what they do--and very nice at the same time. A great combination! The tax deduction and the great buy-back rates for a Washington-made system were critical to our being able to do this now. It was still expensive but we wanted to support the industry while supporting the planet.

We are delighted with the appearance and current functioning of our PV system.

I was impressed with the six employees of this company (the ones I came into contact with). They were very knowledgeable about the details of this installation and other types of project in the field that we talked about than the usual contractor personnel I deal with. They well all very professional in their manner and behavior. I used the 30% federal tax credit, the State of Washington Renewable Production Credit, and the utility(state legislated) net metering agreement. Without these, I probably wouldn`t have even been thinking about this project.

Primary difficulty was with bank loan financing. Despite excellent credit rating U.S. Bank was quite slow in processing the loan. Bank appeared to be "sitting" on their money. This is a systemic problem with the banking system today. After causing a recession with bad banking practices they now are not cooperating in assisting ending the recession/depression.

Great to have our system installed by someone local who is known for his enthusiasm and ability.
