New to the Philly area, I needed advice on what solar installer to contract with. I met with Meenal…read moreRavel, 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.

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.

Rather than remove the solar panels on my deceased mother's house so we can sell it to people who don't want the panels or to take on the lease payment of the panels, they are holding up the sale saying that the contract specifies if the owner dies, someone else has to keep paying for it regardless. What? That is the most disgusting business practice I have ever come across. Hope these people rot where they don't need any solar panels for heat. If you're older, don't plan on staying in your house for a decade or more, or don't want to burden your kids with dealing with a company like this, please avoid doing business with them. If you die while they're screwing you, they're going to screw your kids over instead.

Such a big project is daunting to average home owners like my wife and me. We started out knowing nothing about everything! After meeting with several companies that do these types of projects, we chose Whitman. One reason was that our research of various companies showed me that Whitman was one of the best; a long time in business with a sterling reputation. And local. A NJ company rooted here, paying taxes here, hiring high quality professionals... right here. Well, that matters to us. What closed the deal -- rather, quite literally WHO -- is Dave Kawczynski. There was no pressure. (What a relief after being talked at by others.) And he was so educational. We learned everything necessary to make an informed decision. No hype or empty promises. Along with Matthew Cruz, they gave me a solid deal. Andrew Ludewig stayed on top of the many steps in our solar-electric project. The rest of the team are highly competent and treated us really well too. Julie Criscuolo, Lindsay Fischer, and Melissa Whitman took care of a lot of stuff along the way. I don't know their full names, but good job by Tom who oversaw roof project. He gave me a lot of tips and advice. Electricians Travis and Will not only did a great job, but also put a very positive face on Whitman.

Spruce Power does not install solar panels, so now I have to get someone to take the panels down. Many companies will not touch the panels because they don't want to be liable for panels that are not theirs. I would take the panels down myself to get my roof replaced, but under Spruce Power guidelines that is not allowed and only a certified electrician can do that. After dealing with this nonsense, I decided to take a real hard look at my electric bill and discover I am not saving a thing with the solar panels. What a rip off that I have to deal with until I can pay off the panels or my contract runs out.
