Enver Solar (out of business)

After months researching online, speaking with neighbors who have solar, and getting four solar company quotes, I chose Enver Solar for my roof-mounted 14-panel system. The solar rep who came to my home was professional, knew his system, and was patient with my inquiries. I told him I would need to look over the numbers - they had the diagrams, specs, price, breakdown comparison of purchase versus lease, and even something someone told me to watch for, the degradation rate of the panels, all in their report (being an accountant, I don't make quick decisions). I wanted to choose a company that uses panels made in the USA, is USA-owned, and would be reliable. I did my analysis and chose Enver Solar based on the above as well as the fact that their rep did an energy and water analysis of my home, and they recommended replacing my 25-year-old pool pump, which they included at no additional charge with my system. From the moment the rep and I signed the contract (he returned and spent hours with me - not that he had to, but I asked lots of questions), Enver quickly and seamlessly made the arrangements, obtained permit, and had a crew of organized men, including their electrician, all here in one day to complete the installation. I was particularly impressed with their roof rack system, which does not drill through my tiles but is fitted under them with the panels attaching to a low-profile rack. When they left, everything was clean, not one roof tile broken! The city inspector actually knocked on my door, which temporarily gave me a fright, to tell me it was probably the best installation he had seen - I was pleased with that but couldn't wait to see the electric bill proof. SCE was a little slow in approving the solar after the reports were all submitted, and I felt Enver Solar should have called them before I called them to push SCE, but once the power switch went up, I have had $-82 in net credits, my highest bill was this past month, $2 (even with the 100+ degree temps for a week), and my monitoring system shows production higher than my specs quoted, consistent production.
I would be happy to show anyone my Enver Solar panels and my electric bills. I feel Enver Solar has provided a quality system and a nice purchase plan.... read more
