Look no further. This is the company for you.

In Idaho, there is one best solar company. That's Auric. Let me tell you how I know this.<br /><br />I did a mountain of research on the various installers and their vendors. I looked at what each installer promised, and what they actually did. I talked with actual customers. On all counts, Auric came out on top.<br /><br />I had my 9.3 kW system installed in early November, 2017. This was important because I was able to take advantage of the 30% Federal tax credit, the $1,500 Idaho state tax credit, and the 0% down for 12 months that Auric still offers. I can take 30% depreciation over 5 years. The incentives are pretty amazing.<br /><br />On the customer service side, I had the best experience imaginable thanks to David Ballew, who managed the process from start to finish. If I had a question--whether it had to do with a panel, the system, Idaho Power details, financing, tax credits--I could call David and he would always reply fast. Eight months later, David is still answering calls fast. There is definitely service after the sale. <br /><br />If you are wondering about solar, read up on it. In Idaho, very few of us are solar adopters. But those who are become solar enthusiasts for a few reasons. First, we know this is the right thing to do. Second, ever since my solar collectors caught up with my energy use in March, 2018 (yes, during the bleak Idaho inversions--the sun still powered my house), my Idaho Power bill has been $5 per month. Well, $5.27 with tax. Third, look at what Auric is doing. Don't worry about talk of tariffs on solar panels made in China. All of Auric's panels are made in the U.S. They do everything at the highest quality.<br /><br />For example, the electricians required for this job, and their coordination with Idaho Power and the city of Boise, blew my mind. David made sure this was a seamless process with no hiccups. I also needed a roof. David Ballew came through again with a top recommendation for a roofer--Blue Goat Roofing. The minute the roof was approved, the solar panels came on. <br /><br />In a sentence--I am thrilled with Auric Solar. Talk with David, and once you sign off on your part of the agreement, David will take it from there. Painless. <br /><br />If you want to ask me any questions, message me through this site. I'm happy to chat with you. This is a big decision--and it's the right decision.
