Comfort Control

LICENSEDBBB A12+ YEARS

This company is a dice roll with high stakes. We analyzed hundreds of reviews and found a contractor split down the middle.

Epic Energy

BBB NR12+ YEARS

Epic Energy is a company to avoid. We analyzed over a hundred reviews and found a pattern of abandoned customers, shoddy roof work, and a business that disappears the moment problems surface.

Skyline Energy Savers

BBB NR15+ YEARS

This company is not worth the risk. We analyzed dozens of reviews and found a pattern of misleading sales tactics and vanishing support.

Unisun Solar is not worth the risk. We analyzed dozens of reviews and found a company with a broken process and a trail of abandoned customers.

GoodLeap

5+ YEARS

GoodLeap is a solar lender, not an installer, and that matters when things go wrong. We analyzed hundreds of reviews and found two patterns that should worry you.

V3 Electric

LICENSEDBBB A+10+ YEARS

V3 Electric is not a company we can recommend. One homeowner lost two years of her life to a botched installation that began with deception after her husband's death, left nails scattered across her yard that punctured two tires, and ended with tarps and bricks blowing around on a leaking roof that

Plan It Sierra Solar

9+ YEARS

Plan It Sierra Solar is a company in collapse. We found eight separate warranty and service failures, with customers stuck in six-month backlogs, pre-paying hundreds of dollars for repairs that never happen, and watching their roofs leak while the company ghosts their calls.

Global Energy

BBB F7+ YEARS

Global Energy is a company we cannot recommend. We found 16 reviews documenting unpaid contractors, supplier liens placed on homeowners' properties, and failed rebate submissions stretching for months.

Sunworks

BBB NR13+ YEARS

Sunworks poses a clear risk. Over the past decade, customers report a company that overpromises and under-delivers, then vanishes when the system fails. One customer called 40 times to reach support after a panel quit working, only to be told the 24/7 monitoring they paid for meant they had to spot

Sunfinity Renewable Energy

BBB D-10+ YEARS

This company has largely abandoned its customers. We analyzed reviews spanning seven years and found a clear pattern: Sunfinity delivers a competent installation, then disappears when something breaks. In one particularly bleak example, a homeowner had a defective battery delivered two years ago tha

Infinity Energy

BBB NR11+ YEARS

Infinity Energy will leave your solar project in limbo for months on end. One customer signed in July 2021 for an installation promised in six weeks, paid in full, and still had no working system eighteen months later after three no-show installation dates and a surprise 40% price hike. We found 212

SMA America

BBB A-16+ YEARS

SMA America is a manufacturer, not an installer, and this company will not help you when things go wrong. Installers describe spending 32 hours troubleshooting a single inverter that failed twice in 13 months, only to have SMA close the support case with no explanation because management wanted thin
