couldn't be happier with my experience with JC Solar. From start to finish, the communication was excellent, the pricing was very fair, and everything happened exactly when they said it would. A special shout-out to Mike, the technician who came out. He was professional, knowledgeable, on time, and incredibly straightforward. He took the time to explain everything clearly without any pressure, which I really appreciated. It's not often you find a company that combines great customer service, honest pricing, and quality work, but JC Solar delivered on all three. I highly recommend them to anyone considering solar. Terrific experience from beginning to end! read more

Mark and Nancy are fantastic to work with! I have been a loyal customer for almost 10 years. I had a leak in a solar pool panel, and they were able to come out first thing on a Saturday morning. After review, they gave me options and once decided, Mark was able to replace the panel on the spot. He went above and beyond when he discovered another piece needing replacement and also had the parts with him to completely dial my system in. Now we are ready for the summer! read more

I hired Nach & Mike of JC Solar to do my pool Solar and I have been incredibly pleased with them. I wouldn't use anyone else.

Still working without a hitch, I recommend JC Solar for anyone looking for a company with quality products and equipment. 5-STAR'S

I just have to respond finally- I didn't do it right away because I was really irritated. Their answer is a bunch of crap. I never was contacted by either one of the people they said contacted me. In calling other Solar pool heating companies I was informed that the manufacturer of the panels was out of business. So yeah, sure- I believe everything you say Frankly, saying that $250 is standard for a visit during which they did nothing but say "yeah you have a leak" is baloney. We had another company come out to look for free! Just don't go to these guys I do not recommend them. Unfortunately, we will have to replace the whole system- but we will do it with another company because we love the heated water for swimming and exercise! read more

Jc solar was fanatic to work with. Mike Ferrari was a pleasure to work with. Everything went smoothly and painless. Our installation was fast and our system works perfectly. We now enjoy our pool all year around and couldn't be happier. read more

JC Solar - Solar Installation Near Me - Simi Valley, California

These folks did a great job! I asked them to install a new gas heater along with the Solar, and the entire system is very nice. The folks that came to my house were great, folks on the phone were great, it was a very positive experience. My system (and my pool) are not that big, but the system is great and saves me HUGE charges for gas. read more

I've been using Jc Solar for many years. I thought I needed to replace the old system as 2 panels needed repair. When Mike came out, he told me that my four panels were in excellent condition and there was no need to replace the whole system. The honesty and integrity of this company and Mike and Nancy in particular, is unsurpassed. I highly recommend them. Jc Solar stands by their products and is such a pleasure to work with. read more

JC Solar installed my solar pool heater last summer and we could not be happier, Nancy is a very nice lady, easy to talk too and explained the whole process from start to finish of how it works and gave us a price that didn't change, what she quoted is what we paid. Mike was the Forman on the job, he was professional all the way and his crew followed his lead, cleaning up every night and not interfering with our daily routine. My pool in the summer is mid 80's. The whole process was easy and pain free. I would recommend JC Solar for anyone wanting a solar pool heater read more

Very professional service. Showed up on time to provide a bid that was provided quickly with professional follow-ups. While we are still contemplating the investment/service, this review is for bid. Thank you IC Solar. read more

Our Homeowners Association had JC Solar upgrade the Solar heating system for our Clubhouse Pool in 2020 and we have been extremely happy with the results. But what prompted this review is the followup service JC Solar has provided: when we needed someone to come talk to a group of homeowners about how the system works, Nancy Suarez sent Mike to our location on a date and time convenient for us. Mike was awesome! He gave a thorough overview of how the solar heating system works then patiently answered our questions before checking the system to make sure everything is continuing to work properly. I highly recommend JC Solar for your pool heating needs! read more

Jc Solar installed the solar system about 4 yrs ago at my house. Since then my family has been able to use the pool more comfortably starting usually late April in to early October. Definitely recommend solar panel heating for the pool, for many reasons but mostly bc of cost to heat my pool with gas would be outrages. The install process: wow! Completely professional and above and beyond service. They explained to me how they will have to dig, install pipes, go around my yard (bc of where my pool and filter/pump system is) and then attach to the roof. Immediately I was hesitant bc I don't want pipes just all over the place, for cosmetic reasons. Looking through the pictures I've posted you can see the pipes are buried/hid except where they can't be, also painted to the best of their ability to match my wall/floor, and house. I honestly feel like they installed the system as if they were installing it in their own house, and how they'd like it done. This professionalism goes above and beyond. Also it was completed with in a day, and working before they left. Since the install my pump went out (it was old and should've been replaced sooner but I let it die first) I called JC for their recommendation on which pump would would be ideal for optimal solar function. For any issue or concern I've called I've been treated with respect and compassion. Highly recommend!!! read more

See all

JC Solar. What a pleasure to work with such a professional company. We were impressed with their work ethics and follow thru. Wish all companies would take note. A pleasure to work with them. Ann Len read more

Efficient service, friendly staff inspire confidence. They arrive in time and get the job done without delay and at reasonable prices.

We did hire JCSolar to replace and install the solar heater fr our pool. We are glad we did. They did a fantastic job within the budget and exactly on time. The pool water is worming up nicely and the kids are happy! Thank you for a great job! read more

JC Solar did an amazing job repairing a sticky valve. After some 15 years, we have had no problems with the system they installed. The solar pool water heater heats the pool, on average, at least 6-8 degrees above the ambient water temperature. Nancy and Mike were a pleasure to work with and their pricing was very fair. I would highly recommend JC Solar for any solar water heating work you need done!! read more

Mike did an amazing job modifying our pool solar system. Wish I knew about this company when I had it installed.

JC Solar did an R&R removal an reinstall on my domestic hot water solar panels to accommodate a new roof. Great customer service that answered all my questions. Reasonable quote for the work which they adhered to. Excellent professionalism on site. I highly recommend them. read more

First of all, it is hard to find a company that does solar pool heater, second, I'm kind of glad because these guys are definitely what I wanted! They were super busy but they found time to come see my pool and give me a proposal right away. The price is fair and affordable. As soon as we agreed we wanted them to do the job they put us on the calendar and kept us in the loop. The installation took an entire day and those guys worked really hard! They were extremely professional and respectful since this was an install done during COVID19. We are very happy with our pool and have been enjoying it during these hot days. I'd totally recommend JC Solar, they are the company you want, trust me ;) read more

We hired JC Solar to install solar heating for our pool. They gave a good price and did excellent work. We had a lot of construction going on at once and they rolled with it. Great job great price and I would highly recommend them for your solar needs. read more

WOW!! Talk about the dream team. First off Matt came out to give us a quote last summer, we were on the fence and decided to hold off until this year. We finally made the decision to get solar for our pool and I'm kicking myself for not doing it sooner. It's been one of the best home improvement decisions we have made. Nancy who is a badass booked our appt and she is an absolute gem. Mike and the crew who installed were top notch. I even texted Mike weeks after installation to ask some questions, and he never made me feel like a nuisance, and helped me figure out how to use the new system. On top of that Matt followed up with us weeks after to make sure everything was going ok. He even referred me to an awesome roof guy to help fix some issues we didn't know we had that JC solar pointed out to us. I mean these guys are the real deal. From customer service to knowledge to pricing. In my opinion, there's no one better! read more

This company does good, honest work. Mike has been my technician. He does a great job.

I had solar panels installed to heat my pool. They replaced some panels that were initially installed when the pool was built and they were, I shall say, of a lesser quality. JC Solar installed the new set of panels and made sure I received high quality ones this time. Over the past four years since the installation, a couple of the panels have failed. Which is unfortunate, yes. But, from what I gathered, because of the pressure and heat placed on them, it's going to happen. On the occasions this has happened, since the pads are still under warranty with the manufacture, JC Solar has provided me with new panels each time and only charged me for labor. With my prior service, they would only patch the panels and wouldn't install new ones. JC Solar has always treated me extremely fairly and we have built up a nice relationship over the years. Nancy is always happy to hear from me, even though it means something has failed. She always tried to get me fixed up as soon as possible and she is super nice to boot. As frustrating as it is to have the pad fail, it's a comfort to know there is always someone on the other end who is understanding and helps me get back up to speed. Not sure I can really ask for anything more. Thank you, Nancy, and everyone at JC Solar for being prompt, professional and understanding. I so appreciate it!!!! read more

I have to say I'm very impressed with JC Solar. I had them install (replacing old ones) new solar panels for my pool heating. JC Solar was professional, reasonable, and when they did the work Mike and coworker were focused on completing the job and keeping me updated along the way. They did an excellent job on cleaning up and checking that I was satisfied with the work. It's so nice to have a reputable and trustworthy company do work for me. And the results are exactly as I hoped. If you have any needs for solar panels for your pool, don't hesitate use JC Solar. I went from having them fix a problematic system a year ago to having them do the complete replacement. read more

JC Solar - Backyard view of newly installed solar panels by JC Solar - Solar Installation Near Me - Simi Valley, California

JC Solar was wonderful! We weren't sure if we wanted to put a solar heater on our roof as we were planning to use the best (South) side of the roof for electrical solar panels, but we are SO GLAD WE DID!! Nancy and team helped us figure out the best placement and number of panels needed, now we are swimming in our pool in March as the temp is in the 80s! Absolutely love it! JC Solar gave us an excellent price and installation crew was terrific! We highly recommend JC Solar! We can now enjoy our pool at least 1/2 year rather than 3 months in the summer. read more

Had an issue with our solar heater. Since the original company who installed it could not get there act together to fix it, I called JC Solar. Super friendly staff, had someone out there the day after I called, the tech called me to tell me he was on his way, very professional and very reasonable. So happy I found a company that knows what customer service is. Bravo! read more

When I saw the JC Solar on the yelp, it shows 5 stars that I thought it could be a good choice. So I requested a quote and expected few days later to get the feedback. Surprisingly, Marco called me next morning said he could come for a quote. Nice guy and I believe he loves his job. He answers all your questions with patience. And then I had it started, during the installation, we encountered some problems that made me headache. Mike and his team helped me out with the other option. No hassles. You can feel Mike really tried to help and think from your standpoint. At the end we found the solution. Of course, both Marco and Mike and his team are professional, no comparison. If there're six stars here then I will definitely give them all!!! BTW, this is the first time I posted a review in yelp and I am glad I did. read more

All I can say about JC solar is if you are looking into getting a solar system for your pool or need a repair or fix on an existing one you already have this is the company you should call. We have been using them for a number of years now and they are always great with correspondence organized on time and the technicians that show up are very knowledgeable courteous and efficient. They have a been a great company for all of our solar pool heating needs!! read more

We use this company for our pool solar repairs/inspections/turning the solar off in the fall & turning on in the spring & they are terrific! They are prompt with responses, cordial and very helpful. Their customer service is outstanding. It has been a long time since I have had customer service that is this good! read more

I'm not even sure where to begin. This is one of the best experiences I have encountered with any contractors working on my home. My pool solar pamels started leaking and my original contractor retired without telling me. I was referred to JC Solar and couldn't be more pleased. Nancy and Mike were not only responsive but extremely professional and handled my job quickly and perfectly. My property was left in perfect condition. Thank you so much for fixing my nightmare. I cannot wait to start using my pool again and would highly recommend using JC Solar. read more

We have had the unit for just over 2 years now and the actuator broke. When we called JC Solar to have it fixed they first said they didn't install it because it was not on my invoice. Then they said the part should not have broken in two years and they would contact the manufacturer for warranty claim. In the end they said it was not covered and it would cost $199 for the call and $300 for the part. We agreed and the service was done perfectly. Afterwards we looked up the part online and Home Depot sells it for $105. Just seems excessive to us to charge an additional $395 for something that shouldn't have broken in just over 2 years and only took them 27 minutes to get done. The company doesn't seem to be ran the same as it was with Joe. read more

Two - no, Three! thumbs up for JC Solar. They are servicing my installation which I've now had for 21 years. They did not do the initial installation but have now gradually replaced the original panels with panel of a better quality. When there was a problem they corrected it at no charge. They've always treated me fairly and in turn I ask them to make changes and maintenance in the winter months when they're not as busy. They are keepers! read more

I own a business called PoolAdvisorPro. We help homeowners act as their own Owner-Builder so they can build their swimming pools and save the cost of hiring a swimming pool contractor who's going to mark everything up 30% OR MORE. My most recent client here in West Hollywood wanted to heat their pool using solar. For the past five years I have been using one company for my solar needs but as part of the process that PoolAdvisorPro offers, I promise my clients more than one bid. I checked Yelp and found J.C. Solar with 18 five star reviews. Wow!!! That's unheard of for contractors of any kind. The rest is history. "Professional" falls way short of describing my experience with Joe (the owner), Nancy, Bruce, and the install crew. They use only state of the art materials and their warranty is unmatched by their peers. My clients are very very happy with their swimming pool solar heating system by J.C. Solar. AND SO AM I!! read more

These guys are solar artists. Not only does it work great, it's also beautiful. Our metal trellis by the pool was a little tricky, but the end result looks as if the panels and trellis were made for each other. Honest, professional, reasonable and no nonsense! read more

Very professional and competitively priced. Bruce my sales rep came out and gave me an estimate. We agreed to terms and they installed within one day. Everything seems to work great. In addition, I realized I had asked them to put the pipes going to the roof in view of our bathroom window. They sent a crew back out, free of charge and relocated the pipes. Very happy. read more

I live in Lancaster. When I bought my home it had a pool solar system. I called solar companies here with no response. I contacted JC Solar and they said they service my area. The best call I ever made. It's been 3 years I've used their service. My system had reached the end of it's life and it needed replacing. JC Solar quoted and then came and replaced the old system. I can only say I was impressed. Nancy made the appointment explained things. Mike came out and installed. They are so good. You could not ask for a better company to do business with. read more

Looks like a good company on paper, but when your unit was installed last year And is not working this year we called for service. Can't get the pool to warm up and was told it would be a month before we can get a technician out to service the property. The temperatures this week has been in the 90's and we can't use our pool. Not a happy consumer!!!!! Update: service guy came out today and went above and beyond to take care of our issues. read more

We had severe wind damage to our pool solar panels during the January wind storm. One 12' x 12' panel lifted completely off our second story roof. Mike, who was the first to come out to estimate the repairs, offered alternatives for the material from which the panels could be made. He provided us with the pros and cons of each type. Their price was very reasonable in comparison with other companies. From the very beginning, working with Mike and Nancy at JC Solar was a great experience. They, and their crew, are very professional and extremely careful on the job. You can't go wrong with JC Solar. read more

After getting several quote on the removal/re-installation of my solar pool water panels I went with JC Solar. What a fabulous choice I made!! They are honest, prompt and very fair in their pricing. I ended up with a whole new system of panels--the old copper panels I had needed repair every year. Mike and his crew were on time and did a great installation. Very neat and clean!! And Nancy (in the office) was wonderful to work with. I highly recommend JC Solar for any pool water solar work you might need. read more

Just had my pool solar completed with this company. From day 1 when I met with Marco, to this past weekend, when Mike and his installation team came out, it's been an absolutely wonderful experience dealing with them. The whole team there (including Nancy whom I believes works in the office) is professional, friendly, and honest. They're one of the rare companies does goes the extra yard to make things right for the customer. Highly recommend this company without a doubt. Thank you for your service! read more
