The Verdict

Asgard Energy delivers solid solar and battery work. We analyzed dozens of reviews and found that 37 homeowners specifically praised the installation craftsmanship, while only 2 mentioned any issues with the finished work. One customer watched Asgard's crew rip out a day's worth of electrical routing because they didn't like how visible the wiring looked from the street, then repaint the conduit to match the house trim. The company handles city permits and HOA paperwork without making you chase down forms, and their Enphase systems consistently match the original energy-use forecasts (one 4kw system landed within a few dollars of the projected utility bill after a full year). They won't upsell you on extra panels you don't need. That said, two customers reported going silent when post-install problems cropped up months later, and we noticed communication complaints spike after the first year. The crew will troubleshoot a cable-company mistake at no charge, but long-term responsiveness is inconsistent.

If you want an installer who'll repaint conduit runs because the aesthetics weren't perfect, Asgard is a strong pick. Just know that their attentiveness may fade once the final inspection clears.

3 Stories That Stood Out

1. audreyjune
Google | Jan 1, 2025 |

Audrey already had Enphase solar panels and had been living with a non-working battery for a year when she turned to Asgard Energy after a longtime electrician — who had worked alongside owner Kevin Prill for years — recommended them. She discovered from the first contact that responsiveness and patient explanation would define the project: Josh, the lead installer, showed up the same day she called; Kevin returned a quote shortly after; and a three-person crew was installing a few days later. The team finished swapping in two 5 kWh Enphase batteries in about three days, even after disconnecting the previous failed unit and reusing the existing conduit to work around that handicap. The new batteries sit compactly on the wall, and the Enphase app now lets her monitor performance from a desktop — something the old battery’s smartphone-only app couldn’t do. What stood out most was how Kevin (president and CEO) and Thomas (VP of sales) took time to educate her about how batteries work and what paperwork she should have received from the first installer, answering a stream of questions without ever seeming rushed. She and her husband are now seeing lower SDG&E bills, and the memory that

2. Justin F.
Yelp | Oct 14, 2016 |

An HVAC professional who hears every solar pitch, Justin F. went into his home installation looking for a crew that cared about details. He found Asgard Electric — a medium-sized, boutique outfit led by Benjamin and Kevin — and discovered they prioritized the small things that make a system feel finished. On the second day of the install, the crew stopped and rethought how the electrical runs would look on the outside of his house. Rather than accept exposed conduit, they consulted with him, added an extra full day to the schedule, and rerouted the lines through his garage so they wouldn’t be visible from the street. One technician even returned despite having a broken arm to paint the wiring so it blended seamlessly with the exterior. Throughout the process the team communicated clearly, kept a positive attitude, and focused on producing a neat, polished result. What stuck with him wasn’t the company’s size but that willingness to take extra time and care — rerouting conduit and returning to paint it — to make the installation genuinely look like part of the house.

3. Joe Waltman
Google | Nov 11, 2022 |

Joe Waltman hired Asgard to install a Tesla battery about six months ago. Shortly after installation the battery failed; he contacted Asgard and they came back a few weeks later to restart it. The system ran for only a few days before failing again, and after that the company refused to return to service the equipment and largely stopped answering his calls and emails. He’s unsure whether the problem stems from Tesla or from the installation, but the lasting impression is that Asgard won’t stand behind the job — a brief fix followed by silence.

What You Can Expect

01

1. Rick Stewart
Google | Aug 12, 2023 |

Rick Stewart chose Asgard to install a modest 4 kW rooftop solar system for his home. He discovered the company’s proposal was spot on — after a year the system’s actual generation closely matched his household use and SDG&E owed him a small credit. The Enphase microinverter setup ran trouble-free, and he enjoyed checking the app’s clear day-to-day production stats. Between the accurate sizing and the easy monitoring, he ended up with a system that performed as promised; the most memorable detail for him was that the numbers in the proposal translated into real-world savings and a small utility credit after a year.

2. Jon Woods
Google | Jan 30, 2017 |

Jon Woods had Asgard install his home solar system in 2015, and it has run without trouble since. One morning he called because the system stopped reporting its daily totals after the cable company swapped his internet router; the panels themselves were still producing power. Keneth, one of Asgard’s top technicians, showed up within hours and reconnected the monitoring so the daily tally came back online — and did it at no charge, even though the outage wasn’t Asgard’s fault. Jon picked Asgard out of four bids; their price sat below the average, but what sold him was the company’s honesty and clear ability rather than marketing glitz from radio or TV advertisers. During the original installation he noticed how careful the crew was to protect the roof, and that care paid off during recent torrential rains when no leaks developed. The detail that stuck with him most: Keneth arriving the same day and restoring the monitoring for free.

3. William M.
Yelp | May 16, 2016 |

William M. dug into comparisons of six different solar companies before choosing ASGARD. He found Benjamin and Kevin to be a hands-on pair who guided him through every step and kept the process straightforward. The installation left him so satisfied that his only regret was not going solar years earlier. To underline the outcome, he included photos of his electric bill showing a credit of $7.57 — a small, concrete sign that the system is already delivering savings and that the team’s effort paid off.

1. J S.
Yelp | Nov 27, 2017 |

More than two years after Asgard installed a residential solar array, J S. discovered it was still running perfectly. About a year in, they had the cable company replace the home router; the crew failed to reconnect the inverter to the network, so the panels kept producing power but the system stopped reporting to the monitoring provider. Asgard sent Keneth to the house, and he reinitialized the inverter and restored the monitoring on-site at no charge — even though the wiring error came from the cable company. That free, hands-on fix for a third-party networking problem is the detail they tell friends about.

2. Luis Vargas
Google | Apr 24, 2025 |

Luis Vargas hired Asgard Energy to put solar on his house in an area plagued by high electric bills, and he ended up with a system that saves him from those steep costs. He relied on Thomas Bassett, the Energy Sales and Electrical Coordinator, to handle all HOA and city paperwork so permits and approvals were done correctly, while Josh, the installer, completed the on‑site work. Both men conducted themselves with clear expertise and professionalism throughout the process. The detail that stuck with him was how Asgard managed the bureaucratic legwork and delivered a properly permitted installation that lowered his electric bills.

3. Luis V.
Yelp | Apr 24, 2025 |

Luis V. chose Asgard Energy for a residential solar installation to push back against the steep electric bills in his area. He discovered that Thomas Bassett (Energy Sales and Electrical Coordinator) and Josh (Installer) brought real expertise and professionalism to every step. The team took charge of the HOA and city paperwork, navigating permits and approvals so the installation proceeded smoothly. The completed system delivered noticeable savings on the high utility bills common in his neighborhood, and he highlights the crew’s competence with approvals and the hands-on installer as the parts that made the difference — he recommends the company without reservation.

Juan Sanchez chose the company for a solar installation and immediately noticed their proactive communication. He experienced prompt answers to every question and regular follow-ups that kept the process transparent. The crew showed up on schedule and completed the work on time. What set the experience apart was the consistent, hands-on follow-through — he never felt left waiting for updates, and the punctual execution reinforced that reliability.

3. Susan Lyon
Google | Aug 15, 2023 |

Susan Lyon hired Asgard Energy for a rooftop solar system sized to meet her home’s needs, and the project moved smoothly from start to finish. Tom stayed in contact throughout, so she always knew what came next. The crew left a tidy installation, and the system’s output matched the company’s projections with a little extra capacity for growth. They even painted the exterior conduit to match the stucco and shingles where it passed over each color — a small, unusual touch that showed real attention to detail. Her lasting impression: an expert, well-communicated installation that performs as promised and looks like it belongs on the house.
