We're excited to have our battery installed! We've wanted once since we first got solar panels- and now it's finally possible! Thanks ES solar. read more

Our experience with ES Solar has been mixed, and unfortunately, the negatives outweigh the positives. The salesman misrepresented the actual cost we would owe after rebates. He quoted us an interest‑only payment and made it sound like our final cost would be far lower than it truly was. Once everything was finalized, we learned the real numbers -- and they were nowhere near what we were told. The battery system we purchased has not been worth the money. Based on the actual performance and the true cost, it will take far longer than its guaranteed lifespan to break even. Had we been given accurate information upfront, we would not have moved forward with this part of the system. To be fair, the installation team was excellent. They were on time, professional, and completed the work quickly. The workmanship was solid, and they did everything they said they would. But overall, the cost simply isn't worth the squeeze. The sales tactics were misleading, and the value of the battery does not justify the price. I wish the installation team's quality matched the honesty of the sales process. read more

They will break your house. Watch this video: https://youtu.be/DImN9bn7hbs After ES Solar install an expensive Sonnen battery, we experience power sags in various parts of our house. ES Solar addressed our first report, but when we discovered a problem with another circuit, they replied: "Due to ES Solar already adjusting your backup loads for free at your last site visit on 12/08/25, I've been advised my management that any future appointment would need to be charged at the standard Electrician Rate of $299 for the first hour and $150 for every following hour." Also: ES Solar replies to bad Yelp reviews with boilerplate to make it look like they are responsive. The above message is the *real* response. Not the reply below. read more

When we had solar panels in CA, they were installed several weeks after originally promised and the installation took over two weeks. Here we had more panels and they went up when they were scheduled and the installation from start to finish took only a few hours and was completed in one day. Lucas Hill (our rep) had told us that with the panels our electric bills would be about $15-20 a month and he was very responsive through the process. However, when our utility bills did not reflect the savings that he promised he became more and more difficult to get a response from. And all the while he told us that there would be a one year audit and that ES would write a check to make up the short fall on savings and add more panels at their expense in order to correct the problem. But, he always added, if we purchased a battery at about $100 a month maybe our savings would increase. At the one year mark, the audit which was supposed to take "up to 10 days" took a month and a half and their determination was that they had delivered up to their expectations. By this point, Lucas had completely stopped responding to phone calls, e-mails and texts. Bottom line, the panels cost about $234 a month--in addition to three figured electric bills in order to save about $100 a month. And, if we purchased the recommended battery, our expenses would be about $334 a month to cover a bill that was typically around $200. Yes, installation was fast, but overall we are very disappointed due to a lying sales rep over promising and under delivering. read more

Horrible is the word that best describes this whole company. They will come into your house and lie lie lie. Once you actually finally break down and make you thinking it's a good idea they just leave you in limbo unknown. No communication. If they finally do call you with some random "project manager" they will set up a date to install that means nothing to them at the crazy time of 6 am Then no call no show. But if you cancel on them or want to reschedule it's a $500 dollar fee. The best they will do is respond when they feel like it with a "we are trying to get you a couple months paid" on your 20 year loan. read more

See all

The service has been great. Very professional and the service tech went above and beyond (we had a complicated situation that required an extra meter on an ADU sub-panel. He went the extra mile to get it dialed in. read more

Had a great experience from the salesperson, Curtis, to communication from the project manager, to the installers and final review. I would recommend working with ES Solar. Also felt that the price was a good value. read more

10000% recommend! Ruben was awesome, absolute incredible experience and I would highly recommend. Love my system, and everyone that helped in our process. read more

ES Solar - Solar Installation Near Me - Layton, Utah

In reading through the reviews they are very positive or very negative. No gray area here. My experience is the same. The installation crew is fantastic but support following the installation is PATHETIC! Every time the power goes out, even briefly for a fraction of a second, my battery goes back into the "doesn't work correctly" mode and getting service is ridiculously poor. If we could only get them to be as efficient in keeping the battery operating as it should as they are at collecting the money they want for it, we'd have an awesome situation. read more

Great experience with these guys, professional and well done, will definitely go with them in the future.

ES Solar was great about communicating throughout the whole process, making sure to keep me informed and up to date. Everyone was very personable and effective. Excellent service all around. read more

The first non intrusive solar company I've looked into! They were super knowledgeable. Gave me the info and let me decide. The whole process was very easy. They communicated everything ahead of time and had things completed on time or even early. read more

Great customer service, easy to communicate with. They were polite, not pushy, and very competitive pricing. Highly recommend ES Solar.

ES Solar was professional, communicative, and efficient. They seamlessly installed a battery backup that integrates perfectly with my existing solar system. Highly recommend their team. read more

Straightforward process, nothing hidden and everyone was professional. Getting full solar is fantastic! Recommend them to anyone!

Installed in September of 2024 and has never worked right since the beginning. Battery works for a few days and then doesn't for many days and months. Dozens of phone calls with zero response. We went 4 months last year during the summer with zero battery backup and paid huge bills from having to use the grid completely. If it wasn't for James Murray from Solrite helping me I would have never got it restored at all. Sales manager Brock Glassman was great and tried to help me but ES Solar failed us big time. Nothing worse than having to pay Solrite each month and still pay PG&E's huge bills. I plan to have it removed. Then sue. read more

I will add to this review post. Carson has ignored 3 emails from me now over a nearly 3 month period. Won't reply, or schedule a time to come meet with us to discuss our concerns. Buyer beware. Extremely unprofessional and poor, how ES Solar operates. read more

We had solar panels already but had been considering a home battery for some time. An ES Solar rep contacted us at the door, and we slowly pursued the battery idea. Now, everything is installed and working and the process felt smooth and easy. We thought all of the employees were nice and easy to talk to, which was big for us. I brought up plenty of questions and they were willing to give me as much detail as I asked for. Overall, we couldn't really ask for more from the process. It is kind of a big purchase so we were wary throughout--we're grateful the team was helpful. read more

Mike was great. He got all the features working and showed me how to navigate the website so I can monitor my usage and savings on my power generated from the Tesla battery and EV charger. Thank you Mike! Nancy read more

Es solar is a great company to work with the commissioners are Amazing thanks Ruben read more

We love ES Solar and their service! They recommend batteries and additional panels to our home which has been a big upgrade to our current system. The entire process has been seamless and the technician, installers, etc. went out of the way to answer questions and offered recommendations to maximize a greater return. read more

I am extremely upset and disappointed with my experience with ES Solar. I started the process of getting a home battery installed back in September 2025 and was originally thrilled. The contractors were on time and professional, and everything seemed to be going smoothly. They disconnected my solar panels from the grid, the city inspection was approved on 9/25/25, and we were told we could finally go "live." Then everything fell apart. When they sent someone to get the battery up and running, it didn't work. I was told the system "wasn't communicating" and that the issue was supposedly the solar panel company's fault. After waiting for answers, someone finally told me they would send a contractor out with the part needed to fix it. That's when I found out the truth: The contractor literally told me that my brand new $20,000 battery is defective. It does. not. work. It is now December 10, 2025. I have a $20,000 battery sitting installed in my garage--completely useless--while I'm paying a loan on it. Every time we reach out, we're told the same thing: "It's under investigation." Their technicians have been back to my house three times since the initial installation, and nothing has changed. This has been the worst customer service and follow-up experience I have ever had. No accountability. No urgency. No solutions. Just endless runaround while I'm stuck with a defective battery they sold and installed. To be clear: the contractors and receptionist have all been friendly and seem just as confused as I am. The failure here is entirely on ES Solar's inability--or unwillingness--to replace a faulty battery and make things right. I strongly urge anyone considering this company to look elsewhere. If anything goes wrong, you may end up in the same situation: paying for an expensive system that doesn't work, with no clear answers and no resolution in sight. read more

I contracted with them to put a solar system on my home. It turned south before the system was installed when they asked to be paid in full before the system was ever installed. They are a predatory company. They have multiple pending lawsuits against them. My system wasn't installed correctly and hasn't worked in 10 weeks. read more

Great service, quick and efficient. We're here when they said they would be, and it's been a great overall experience. Install looks great! Looking forward to saving some money. read more

Everyone was great to work with and the system works great! Spencer was amazing explaining everything to me simple and easy.

Yes do I am updating my review as this company is worthless, and you need to avoid at all costs. The Government organizations I have contacted cannot do anything and ES Solar Knows this. Do not listen to them, do not let them talk to you, and if you wish contact me by messaging. They are low scum who's only agenda is to profit from people who are trying to do right for the environment and to reduce their monthly electric bill. Go on to the BBB Website and review the numerous cases of fraud, dissatisfied customers, and the state of Utah is allowing this to happen. The Politicians need to pull their head out and protect their citizens. read more

Dallin and his roofing team impressed me with their professionalism, speed and quality. Was expecting a 2 day job, but they started early and finished by 3:30 pm on day 1. The roof looks great, they cleaned up really well and communicated just the right amount! The battery team did a great job with the battery install. Completing on time and provide all the details I needed to use the Sonnen system. Everything is working as expected today. Definitely recommend ES for roofing and Solar/battery installs in your home. read more

Had the team come out and install panels and battery for us. They are quick and professional and the app is really easy to comprehend!

Overall I had a good experience with ugh ES Solar. They have been around for many years, which helped me feel comfortable with choosing them to install my solar battery. It's always great to have solar and battery backup for emergencies. They take feedback well to improve their service. read more

Originally asked for sufficient solar to take us off grid with no budgetary limit. Gave them a summer electrical bill and they consulted with their engineers to come up with how many panels we should get. We purchased 2 power walls in addition to their recommended panel count. They say their engineering dept is adept at calculating the needs of a home, but do not trust them. Their estimate for our panels is woefully short and is not enough to fill up our batteries, so the money we spent on them is wasted. I have spent months trying to talk to them about the problem and they Continually drop the ball. Zero communication for weeks at a time. Time will tell but so far our experience, including numerous unwarranted and unprofessional installer outbursts, damage to our home, and technical disasters during installation are enough for me to post the review to warn other consumers. I'll change the review if my experience changes, but our year with them has been poor by any standard. read more

We had a great experience with the installers. They were willing to work with me on my preferences for running wires and they troubleshot everything to completion that same day. read more

We have had solar from ES for five years with zero problems. The system provides the electricity they forecasted and it has substantially reduced our power bills. And yes, we save money over what we were paying RMP read more

Thanks to ES solar for Timely installation, good service. Knowledgeable technicians. We really love the ability to generate our own electricity. read more

ES Solar was great to work with from start to finish, the process was easy, we are loving the battery and are so confident with working with them. read more

Lousy company. The hardware they sell is warrantied, but to get them to check out problems with an already-installed system is like pulling teeth. So far I'm at three days of calling and leaving messages to no avail. They said someone would come out and would contact me to schedule, then they put me on the do not answer list. Customer service and follow through is absolutely abysmal. read more

I had solar panels and battery installed in Sept. 2025. It's been both good and bad. When everything is working properly, it works great; however, the battery has had glitches from the beginning. The company knows about it and has promised a fix for 5 months! Any glitch that happens gives me the red ring of death and getting it fixed is a huge joke! Before I paid off my system, they were all over it, now that it's paid I wait wait wait. My system is down for weeks once it's down and it drives me crazy. This has been agravating and stressful! I thought this would be a good investment. This was a lot of money. Is anyone else considering a class action lawsuit?? They are still selling these "new and great" batteries to people and know that there are issues. I am tired of calling and calling and waiting days/weeks to get everything back working well. They can only band aid the issues since there is some sort of problem. Hind site is 20/20, probably should have just kept my savings account instead of using it for this!! For the last few days I've been calling, I get put in the queue and nobody calls back. I was told last week they would open a ticket and get someone out here again, but I keep calling since I have still not heard anything. read more

This is a nightmare you will not wake up from. There is no "rebate". It's a tax credit you likely will not get a fraction of what's promised. Your payment will therefore not go down, but up. You'll pay more, owe more, and not be able to do anything about it. We have water damage in our attic from their installation and our external electrical has not worked, nor can it be fixed because it's with/behind(?) their box. We want to sell our home to get out from this nightmare but it's killed our equity (it's a lien/2nd mortgage) and we have to deal with major repairs. Upon contacting them again, and them finally routing me to someone who took my call, they say that our only recourse to pursue legal action against them, which they claim to be very insulated with. read more

My experience with ES Solar has been nothing short of disastrous, leading me to warn others about what they might expect when dealing with this company. Some of the major issues I have faced: - Lack of Transparency in Billing: I requested an itemized receipt for my solar battery installation, only to be met with refusal after refusal. ES Solar claims to prioritize "100% customer satisfaction", yet they couldn't provide a simple breakdown of costs, which I need for insurance purposes and personal financial management. Their explanation was that they price systems as a whole, not by components, They state that all the government requires for the rebate is a lump sum, so that is all they provide. Which, for me, raises questions about the integrity of their pricing, particularly given how those government rebates could incentivize price inflation. I stress that is only my personal speculation and not an accusation. Rather just a potential concern based on the opacity of their practices. What exactly are they trying to hide? - Premature Payment Demands: Despite a contract specifying payment upon completion, ES Solar demanded payment on the installation day when the system was not fully operational, still requiring city and utility inspections. This felt like a breach of contract, especially since I had already paid a significant $5,000 deposit months earlier. To add insult to injury, their invoice, included Net 30 terms, yet they insisted on payment before the listed due date, blatantly disregarding their own set terms. - Data Loss and Technical Oversight: During the installation, a new inverter was put in, and 8 years of historical data from my old inverter was lost. When I brought this up, I was dismissively told to contact Solar Edge. Upon doing so, I learned that ES Solar should have transferred this data - a basic step they overlooked. - Ongoing Technical Issues: To further compound the issues, I discovered that my system details show that the old inverter is still connected, causing errors in the app about an unsupported leader/follower configuration on the inverters - despite only having one inverter installed. This not only affects the functionality but also reflects poorly on ES Solar's attention to detail and the lack of customer support post-installation (I have called many times about this, and all I get is a voicemail). I am currently in discussions with one of their salesmen to expand my system by adding 8 more panels, but the lack of transparency and these ongoing issues have made me seriously reconsider continuing business with ES Solar. For anyone considering this company, I hope that your experience is better than mine was. However, be prepared for a frustrating lack of transparency, potential contractual breaches, and technical oversights that can compromise your system's performance and your trust in the service provided. read more

They were nice until I cancelled and then they be came nasty! So the first they were charging me 1500.00 for permits that were only 110.00 and the bill was 2,515.00. Then I told them that it was ridiculous and that I wanted to see and itemize bill. So then they sent me bill for 875.00. Measurements (Enhanced) for 500.00. That's 250.00 hour, you know they don't pay them that! Then at the end I get charged again for NET METERING FEES 65.00. Bottom line they OVER CHARGER for everything. If you are dealing with them I definitely would price out other company's for price GOUGING! This what kind of people your working with at the bottom of this it says You're rolling now - got any more to add? Be careful if you like to be over charged for services then these people are the ones for you. Just remember they come across very nice but they are a nasty bunch of over priced ASSWOLE's. There was that EPIC enough for you!!! read more

ES Solar installed our solar system including the battery. I wasn't thrilled when it was necessary to call the office, but when I had to, I was well received and even though I had to push them, the response was almost immediate. I do have to give kudos to the team that installed my system. They were very polite, on time, cleaned up and very professional and of course knowledgeable. They were a pleasure to work with. They answered all of my ignorant questions with respect and patience. The after installation was great too. It took a lot of red tape to get this done and a great deal of time as well, but from what I have been told from others in a different state, our experience was actually normal. It just takes time. I am now 95% self sufficient!! read more
