I had received a quote from their designer in Florida ???. It was laid out for 17,000 kwh ground mount. $54 000. They were scheduled to come out for electrical panel checks. All Square D installed by union electrical company. I had contracted Davey Tree company to have a 50 tree oak tree removed and any branches interfering with the sunlight exposure a day before their visit for final details. I get an email from the designer in Florida for my commercial property in Delaware stating they were not licensed in Delaware. A BS answer. They advertise on their website Delaware. They checked the codes here for the design. They may have been in business for 21 years but like a local surgeon stated " you're only as good as your last case. That rank a zero. read more

Just had service call by Exact Solar with outstanding service techs Jeff and Leko. The monitoring service sent an email to me with a code for DC drop in charging. Turns out a squirrel made a home under one of my panels and ate through some wire and a converter. The techs found the area where the damage was done and fixed it with a new part. By the way, they handled my service call within 2 days and also had to deal with snow in spots on the roof. They took the damaged component to remove it from the monitoring system and added the replacement. Exact did my install over two years ago and can't tell you how happy I am that I chose them for my solar system. FIRST CLASS!!!! read more

Giving 4 stars because we didn't end up using them, but I would absolutely recommend to anyone interested in going solar that Exact should be one of the companies you contact. The Sales Engineer, Joe, and the team that came out to do the site visit, were all professional, friendly and knowledgeable. The proposal was thorough and detailed, and the whole proposal process - from first phone call, to preliminary proposal, to site visit to final proposal - took only 2 weeks. Only reason we didn't use Exact was because we had some large, unexpected home expenses that upended our financial plans. read more

Eaxct solar takes care of everything. The guys that work for them are really great and helpful. Very professional and the install was quick and neat. They take their time to explain the new system. A+ read more

New to the Philly area, I needed advice on what solar installer to contract with. I met with Meenal Ravel, an advocate and educator with a group called Solarize Southeast PA. Among other services, they vet solar installers each year and Exact Solar was consistently one of the best. I was already aware of Exact Solar because they are listed in several national industry groups. Contracting with Exact Solar seemed a logical choice for installing a 30 panel, 9.9 kWp system on our garage roof. I reviewed my emails with Exact Solar co-owners Mark and Dara, over the months during the lead-up to the 2019 installation, and saw a long list of my questions and their answers. They always responded to my many questions promptly and accurately. Dara put together estimates of the system's output, the point at which the system would pay for its own installation (11 years). Any questions I had that had to do with system performance or the National Electrical Code went to Mark or to Vlad, a master electrician who designs each of the systems and is operations manager. Installation of a solar array is an impressive series of steps. Early on, Jackson, a technician, came out with a device to measure sun and shade on the garage roof. He determined that a black walnut tree would interfere substantially with system performance. After I had the tree removed Jackson came back and re-measured the surroundings for a go-ahead. Jackson showed me how his instruments can infer the extent of sunlight every day of the year based on a single day's several measurements. His measurements provide the basis of Dara's long-term cost and payback estimates. Exact Solar presently has two installer teams, both reporting to Vlad. My sense is that management and the installers respect each other and work well together. My team was headed by Nick who is also outstanding to work with. He, along with Jeremy, a crew member, always "did the right thing". Like running a very long power cable from my detached garage to the house. Running a very long cable means fewer wire-nut connections, and less chance of failure over time. But it's cheaper and easier to link together shorter, leftover lengths of cable. When they were installing exterior conduit, Nick would confer with me where to put them so they'd be less noticeable. If Nick had any question about the system's design, he'd call Vlad without hesitation. Vlad is a natural teacher, soft spoken, thoughtful and expert. Exact Solar has a culture of safety. Much of the time crews are on roofs and ladders, inherently dangerous places to work, and keeping workers safe is where everything starts at Exact Solar. The crew worked carefully, methodically, and cooperatively, without rushing. For Mark, Dara, Jackson, Vlad, Nick and Jeremy, bringing solar power to our communities is a passion, a mission in life, and a commitment to a viable future and not simply a business. If I had a chance to do this install over again, I would not change a thing. The system works perfectly, the design was correct, and the install was skilled and careful and oddly enough, it's fun to monitor it. I feel I have, with Exact Solar's help, contributed to the sustainability of our community. read more

My experience with Exact Solar was overall fantastic! From the first discussions and interactions with Dara, down to the guys installing the panels and Mark providing updates through the entire process and right up to turning over the 'keys' at the end...great job! Regarding initial financials and paperwork, Dara provided great support and a lot of options to consider. Exact Solar really wants to work with you and demonstrates that through their flexibility and commitment to clients 'going solar'. The permit, site work and final inspections were so smooth... Mark took care of everything! The install was great, the guys who did the work were efficient, clean (and cleaned up after themselves) and were in and out, even though it was a bigger job. Overall, very happy with Exact Solar and I've recommended them to my friends and family. read more

Exact Solar installed our solar panel system, we've been extremely pleased with them. They were very nice to deal with, and got the job done when they said they would. What's been even better is the ongoing customer service. They have always been very prompt in responding to my phone calls and emails, and have been cheerful, helpful and proactive in resolving my issues and questions. read more

We have had an amazing experience with Exact Solar and were quite a complicated case. Firstly, we ended up moving into a house that we didn't realize was subject to a historical society approval. Our sale contact managed to get the town's environmental group to write us a recommendation letter which resulted us being the 3rd house ever approved for solar power. Then next we needed to meet our HOA's approval which the company assisted us with. Finally installation was process as it was interrupted with a meaningful amount of snow storms and an eventual leak of our skylights (where the company had to remove panels and replace then so we could get it checked out). All in they were very curious, always patent with us and our challenging process. While slightly higher in price, it pays for service which Exact Solar has!! We love our energy savings and of course the ability to preserve our environment. read more

Exact solar is a great company that have tremendous employees who know about solar systems, your energy needs and how to provide a system with a truly great return on investment. They are easy to work with, do great work and make sure that you are informed and up to date on everything each step of the way. They truly care about their customers and work hard to exceed your expectation before, during and after installation. I would recommend Exact Solar to anyone looking for a complete solar power solution. read more

I'm amazed that there aren't more reviews of the company on yelp. We spent A LOT of time looking at companies and settled on exact solar for our panel array (on the ground) First of, the owners are the ones who come to your property both during the consultation as well as the install. They remain VERY ACCESSIBLE months after the installation. (I suspect even years, but it hasn't been that long). We asked for at least 4 different types of quotes -- mainly dealing with battery back up -- not a problem. All of our (many) questions were answered. It took us over a year to finally move forward, mainly bc we had a generator installed first. They kept in touch but did not harass us like other, bigger companies (THANK YOU). Not once did they seem tired with our delays/questions. The installation was great!!! They even came out over the holidays (non intrusive) and in frigid temps. So much so that I told them to pack up and go home (they kept working). In sum, we are thrilled with our system. So much so, that we bought a hybrid car and are considering adding more panels. They continue to answer any and all questions, so we are very, very happy with our end result. We ended up buying over leasing. I suspect that their estimates are pretty close as to when the system will pay for itself. Of the scores of contractors that we have had at our home, exact solar is definitely in the top 3!!! We HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Update: 7/13/17. We sold our SRECs last month and are thrilled!! Our last few electricity bills have been $2.78. -- a service charge by PSEG to have electricity come to the house, not for actual "usage". We are in the dog days of summer and we are cooling our house, maintaining lights, appliances, etc for free. At this rate, we fully expect our investment in solar to be paid off within the timeline projected by Exact Solar. Very, very pleased! And yes, they continue to answer any new questions that arise read more

We chose exact solar after reading all of the excellent online reviews, and now we have our own five star review to submit. Don from the sales team took the time to thoroughly explain solar energy and patiently answered our many questions. After we signed the contract everything was incredibly easy. They took care of all the paperwork for the permits and PECO while communicating with us throughout the entire process. The installation team was knowledgeable and professional. Even after the installation was complete, Exact Solar communicated with us to ensure that the system was working optimally. I would highly recommend this company, as they truly care about their customers and provide exceptional service. read more

Marc and Dara were wonderful to work with. Great communication, competitive quote and timely installation. Their installation team was fantastic. The end result is we swim far more than we ever have in the past thanks to the efficiency and ease of the heating system! And we will never have to pay to heat the pool again. I would highly recommend going with Exact! read more

When we bought a new home in Pennington, the very best decision we made was hiring Exact Solar to install panels on our roof. In the beginning, they went over all the options - pros/cons which allowed us to make a decision which was best for us. We installed an 11KW system -- Exact Solar completed all the paperwork, permits, net metering application with PSEG. It was smooth and painless on our end - the workers who installed the panels were all extremely nice and professional. One more thing that sets Exact Solar apart -- when we signed the contract we were told that the system would produce about 10MwH per year -- numbers that we counted on to make solar a sound financial decision. As we hit the 5 month mark of solar, I realized that the panels were under producing and we would fall below the 10MwH. We had a lot of trees in the backyard and cut down about 10 - the initial shade analysis estimated the shade after the trees were removed. Exact Solar also noticed the production wasn't as expected and came out and did a full shade analysis and ran numbers again -- they also determined that the system would produce around 8MwH as there was more shade than anticipated on the roof after trees were removed. They held to their word and immediately set to work on doing whatever was necessary to ensure the system produced as expected-- they developed a plan to move panels, add an additional panel and even paid to cut down and remove a neighbors tree that was casting a lot of shade on the roof (and was also a danger to the neighbors roof). This was all at a significant additional expense to them -- we have went from producing around 30-35KwH a day in June to producing 50+KwH a day in mid-March. A significant improvement which should have us exceed 10MwH for the year. This a family owned company that truly stands behind their work -- you will not be disappointed. Mark and Dara (Owners) are both fantastic and very responsive -- Don Kane was our solar rep/sales person and he was great, knowledgeable and responsive as well. You just don't see companies who are so passionate about what they do and at the same time stand behind their work. If you are considering Solar, I cannot recommend Exact Solar enough! read more

We had a solar heater installed in Mid May, Very happy with the service from Mark & Dara & Mike, it pays to stay local, They are there and show up when they should, Thanks. Sam & Richard read more
