Solar Panel

Been a year since I got my panels installed now and I'm very happy. Recently got my brother to call in and they're already working out a system for him. Production from the panels is as expected from the proposals. I'm personally also very happy with the durability as it's been through some pretty bad storms the last year. Top-tier service and quality.

Moving toward the future with solar panels

From start to finish Polaron was very professional. I have a 1997 kit home with no attic(cathedral ceilings through out), therefore the engineers could not see the supports for the roof. They were prepared to walk away rather than say "It will probably be OK." Not until I found a way (through a closet) to confirm that my roof could actually support the weight that would be on it, would they proceed. Just got my first power bill, last year for the same period was 323.77, this year was 25.77. I have a app on my phone that enables me to see exactly what each of the panels is doing at any time during the day.

Good to see my bill

my bi monthly NSP bills were in range of 600-800 and I pay $285 monthly for system. I have generated approximately 3100 kwh’s since July 2nd. Above and beyond my actual expectations to be truthful. I anticipate a check $$$ from NSP on my anniversary date. No brainer if you can use Polaron’s interest free money to finance your system. You can use your own money to pay down higher interest rates on credit cards or whatever you want

Thank you for your review. We are happy you are enjoying your system thus far. Our financing has definitely made it easier to go solar overall. It is a great feeling getting away from the power company

Solar

Very good deal for my panels. They designed a great system for me that offsets my power bill by over 100%. I also like how I can see everything that’s happening on my phone so I can stay connected with the system

Solar Installation

I really felt at ease working with them. The sales person that I met with was very knowledgeable and explained everything I needed to know. From there, the company worked diligently to get the panels installed on my roof without any problems. Had pleasant conversations with multiple members of their team, and it was fun learning more about solar as well.

Good Experience

They helped me get the best deal for solar on our house.
price: 4.7 stars
Responsiveness: 4.7 stars
Speed: 5 stars
Quality: 5 stars

The cost through Polaron is financed interest free with the option to paydown any amount at any time and also you can transfer the contract if you sell your home. We only paid for the connecting permit upfront and our monthly bill is $120, cant wait to see our savings!

$170,000.00

Wonderful to hear. Remember that your savings will be a combination of the credits you use on your bill (sent to the grid, and pulled for later use), as well as the energy that you use directly from your solar system (never hits the meter). Best to use your monitoring unit to see how much you produced in that period as well.

Fantastic. Glad to know you are happy with the production as well as the projection. It is always a great feeling when your saving, and that will only get bigger as the cost of power continues to rise.

Installation

They provided exactly what we were looking for, we highly recommend them, especially with their financing option. Their easy to use web application shows minute by minute what’s happening. I can see today’s energy is 16.9 kWh for example, and each PV module has been working well. It is really interesting even to see the changes in the weather throughout the year on it.

That monitoring unit will also help us troubleshoot and see issues regarding your system as well. It is an amazing tool and glad to see you are using it to its potential.
