Marthedal Solar, Air & Heating

Planet Solar

LICENSEDBBB A+13+ YEARS

Planet Solar falls short when the honeymoon ends. Reviews show smooth installations and patient sales reps like Marilyn who answer financial questions and Ross who returned for a one-year system check.

Semper Solaris leaves too many customers stranded when systems fail.
