Bill at Pacific Pro is a pretty unique guy. In an industry overrun by people pushing leased rooftop solar like used cars, Bill stands out as a straight-shooter. He confirmed my assumption that it made a lot more sense to buy our system rather than lease, and helped me decide what sort of system to install. I'd done a lot of research before calling various solar panel installers, and Pacific Pro was the only one I found who would actually engage in a thoughtful discussion about what would be best for our home and electrical needs.<br /><br />Looking back through old emails, I first contacted Pacific Pro Solar in late February 2015. By mid-March, we'd decided on an appropriate system, and by early April, all of the paperwork was in process and work began on the install. Bill and his guys got the panels up and connected in short order. I think the actual install of racking and 16 panels, microinverters, and wiring took less than two days. After that, they upgraded my old "bulldog" push-button 100 amp panel to a new 200 amp panel and connected everything. The system was ready to produce on April 21, and we got our net metering agreement finalized a couple of weeks later. It all went a lot faster than I had thought it would. <br /><br />8 months later, everything is just working. So far we've put almost 5 megawatt-hours back into the grid. We've had no trouble at all.<br /><br />All in all, a great experience. I would not hesitate to recommend Pacific Pro. <br /><br />Oh, and the price quoted for the job was a good deal less than anyone else. A real win-win!
