Laytonsville, MD
We were shopping for solar panels for our house in Maryland, but wanted to put them on a new shed we were building. The shed roof was designed to maximize number of panels, faces south southwest and has no shade. We called several companies including a large supplier in the area. We were impressed with the responsiveness and professionalism of Jim Reilly with Celestial Solar Innovations (CSI). We had done quite a bit of research online before contacting any companies; Jim’s informative approach was just what we needed to fill in the blanks. He listened to our “requirements” and offered options for the type and number of panels that satisfied all of them. Jim acted more as a mentor than a salesman as we discussed pros and cons of each option. Jim’s quotes were in line with the large supplier and more reasonable than other companies. We decided to go with CSI and Panasonic panels. Panasonic for their performance knowing we will be in the house for a long time. Part of our discussions with Jim included the installation process. Once we signed the contract we knew we would go into a ‘quiet’ period for a few weeks before the physical installation took place. During this time we would get sporadic e-mails from the county and the electric company so we knew Jim was busy taking care of the permitting/approvals. Once we had approval the installation was scheduled for a couple weeks out, the delay was due to weather. When the crew arrived they were polite and enthusiastic. Have not heard that much banter between a bunch of guys over two days without a cuss word (which impressed my wife and not our granddaughter). Each knew their role whether wiring in the house, in the shed or installing support rails and panels on the roof. Before they left they cleaned up to the point we would not have known they were there except for the panels, inverter and disconnects. The utility installed our net meter within ten days after the system was ready and we are now monitoring the performance of our system. Could not be more pleased with Jim and CSI!... read more
