Recommended! I wanted to choose a smaller company that had more of a "family business" feel, and I knew going-in that Universal was going to be a bit more expensive than many of the big name “bargain basement†installers, but I expected Universal would do things correctly, and have a deeper relationship with their customers to be sure everything was settled and transparent, with a high level of service. In summary, I buy major purchases based on quality, value, and integrity - even if it costs a bit more – do you really want to leave your solar project that should last 25+ years to the lowest cost bidder? With all the horror stories you hear about solar installers, it is very important to me to have a personal relationship to be able to connect with the installer every step of the way if needed - and that is what I found with Universal, and they have been stellar.<br /><br />I would absolutely recommend Universal for your solar project. Let me start by saying that not everything went perfectly every step of the way -- there were some mis-steps by Universal in the sale and installation, as well as possibly some misunderstandings on my part as to the delivered solution. However, and this is key to me (and should be to you) -- Universal stepped up -- they owned the issue -- they were reachable, they escalated issues to leaders of the organization who really take a personal interest in the project and in the success of the customer (all the way up to the company founder). Having the ability to get the installation done correctly, with the best solar components (Q-Cells, SolarEdge), and having a direct-line to the organization leaders who are truly committed to your success will mean that the company will be around for a long-term in case you ever need to use the 25 year warranty - I don't think many of the solar installers will be... but in my opinion, you will get the value out of your project with Universal, and know that you'll have a support team behind you every step of the way. The integrity of your solar installer should be paramount for your long-term expectations, and I found integrity in Universal -- I think you will not be disappointed.
