Repaired stucco.  Poor workmanship.

**Workmanship - Terrible (SEE PHOTOS) **Reliability - UNRELIABLE. Lack of Follow-Through in completing a Job **Customer Service -- TERRIBLE. The President (Scott) or the Ops Manager won't return calls. **Business Knowledge - Very Questionable. Many Mistakes made. I am very disappointed in Sun Solar. I wanted to give a good review. I held back in writing this review as I wanted to believe in them to correct the issues. Now, with many attempts made to get a solution in repairing my home and to get my panels up and running with unanswered calls and texts over the past 2 months, I feel this review is warranted. I have been trying to get my solar system completed since 2024!! 2024 - 1st Representative offered Telsa Batteries and pricing. Signed Contract, but representative could not be reached as of 10/2024. It took several months to find someone to assist us. 2025 - 2nd Representative contacted us and picked-up where the 1st Representative left-off and said they can only provide us Solar Edge panels. Sun Solar Installed Panels & Battery 8/2025. The installed battery failed LA County inspection and had to be re-positioned. The Battery was 3' too high. Sun Solar re-positioned battery and left stucco a mess! (see photos). Also, there was poor workmanship in installing the pipe, as a pipe was seen from front of house and looked horrible. The inspection passed after re-positioning the battery, but now no contact with me. I have been contacting Sun Solar to repair the stucco and now they won't return my calls or texts. Scott Ryan is unresponsive to my calls and will not follow-through with the customer. After the length of time to get panels installed (since 2024), he doesn't return my calls to finalize repairing the damage his company did to my home?.... Wow. What does this tell you? I held off since 2024 in writing this review. There's so much I have left out of this review to avoid being so long, but trust me, there's more and lots of problems. As of today 10/23/25, my house is left unrepaired and still haven't received a call from the President of Sun Solar, Scott Ryan. I have now contacted the California State Contractors' Board and filed a complaint.

So far so good but I wish in their price they would've included a power bank it would really make it worthwhile especially for what I paid

Countless calls and messages with no returns. Seems like they're just a virtual consultation but even that they failed at doing.

Do you know if SunPower will negotiate a new deal for those buying a home with old solar units?

Very interesting that SunPower wouldn't answer this here, so I will. You can try to negotiate,…

All the other companies I got quotes from seemed to have a less than honest approach to their sell's pitches, starting out at extremely high prices then coming down a lot on their second and third quotes. Not the case with Illum Solar. It was a fair, honest quote the first time. Illum Solar was able to get us the best interest rate out of all the companies I received from. I did a TON of research comparing the different companies and technologies. Ryan was very patient and gave me all research and data that I asked and then some. He went above and beyond to get our business. The equipment they use is top notch compared to other companies I spoke to. His team that installed our system did a clean install. The monitoring service for the system is very easy friendly and keep you up to date. Illum Solar made the process quick and easy. My system was installed and turned-on producing power "Which means saving money" in less than a week after I signed the paperwork. If you are looking for the lowest interest rates, an honest company that's looking to save you money, best quality product and your systems installed in a fast and timey mater then you need to go with Illum Solar. 5 STARS

I also received 2 responses on my original post. One homeowner recommended Simple Energy and Joe from Fuzion Energy also replied. After sending a message to Joe at Fuzion Energy, I have never heard back from him or the company. A representative from Simple Energy came by to evaluate the situation but seemed lost if the broken inverter could be replaced with a different brand / model as the broken inverter is out of production. I was getting frustrated. I managed to talk to Julio at Pro Power. He said he was booked all day but will call if an opening shows up. He called and showed up a few minutes later. Looking at the row of solar inverters, he explained what needed to be done and it was possible to use a different brand inverter to replace the broken one. Later in the evening, Julio sent me his quote which I accepted. He alerted me friday afternoon the equipment came in and asked if he could come out saturday morning to install the inverter. These guys are professional, prompt and arrived 10 minutes earlier than the appointed time. The installation was fast, it was done in about an hour. What took longer was updating the program which took about an hour or so. I would use Pro Power Solutions again if I have solar issues again. Thank you, Julio.

Thank you to the 3rd party contractor who got my solar system working again after Fuzion essentially held my service repair hostage. Fuzion refused to send a service technician or address my issue unless I signed a non-disclosure agreement. The reason? I left an honest review a few years ago. I was told I needed to sign the NDA and change my rating on that previous review before they would provide service in a timely manner. I paid out of pocket to have an independent contractor diagnose and repair the system. During that process he discovered several installation issues that were not up to code from Fuzion 's original installation. My experience has been that Fuzion is your best friend until the installation is complete. Once they've been paid, you're treated more like an inconvenience than a customer. Looking back, the constant management turnover should have been my first red flag. I don't enjoy writing negative reviews, but consumers deserve to know what happens after the sales process is over. customer service and accountability seem to disappear once the contract is signed.
