Sumintra

Anil drove over an hour each way to provide research as to why our Grumman Solar Hot Water system stopped producing hot water
Our system was installed in 1980 and has required only normal maintenance over all these years - end of 2015 stopped producing hot water - even though this system is no longer produced it did not deter this professional from diagnosing the problem, ordering and installing the parts and we again have hot water via Solar
Anil was courteous, he kept his appointment arrival times always informed us when on his way. We were very impressed with his dedication to resolving our problem and fixing our system.
He provided good service and at a reasonable cost

Sumintra installed a 14.28kW kW STC grid tied solar electric system on the roof of my home. The project could not have gone smoother! Anil Babooram of Sumintra, an electrical engineer, worked our project from beginning until end. He provided very timely and detailed communications during the planning and pre-construction phase, and personally supervised (on site) the entire installation. The attention to detail and professionalism demonstrated by Sumintra was noteworthy. Sumintra took care of every aspect of the project:

Sumintra obtained all necessary permits, drafted a letter to NYSEG on my behalf, drafted a letter to the town building inspector on my behalf, provided me with the tax exemption form, and actively worked with me to navigate the “Green Jobs – Green New York” credit process. They procured all the materials for the project and performed the necessary labor to install the system. They worked with the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) program to complete the necessary paperwork to apply for the rebate. Sumintra made a relatively complicated process very smooth and I highly recommend them to anyone considering a solar electric system.

The service I received from Sumintra was second to none! Anil was a combination contractor, educator and guide, and meticulously never left a stone unturn to quell my anxieties. Whether it was fielding/answering questions, providing follow up literature to said questions, or exploring options to provide the best solar solutions for my system, his demeanor and professionalism were exemplary. I would definitely use Sumintra again and highly recommend their services to anyone seeking solar options.

Anil is a knowledgeable solar installer, he very patient and thorough. If you're looking for the right company please call Sumintra LLC.

Our solar array system started reporting a malfunctioning microinverter. After trying to contact the original installer several times I found Sumintra on thumbtack.com. After describing the problem to Anil, he took over and contacted the manufacturer and found that my system was still under warranty so he had them send me the replacement part. Once it arrived he was very patient with my schedule. He arrived and had the replacement installed quickly. He was very friendly, professional and informative about the process. I highly recommend him & would definitely use him in the future.

Anil at Sumintra LLC came highly recommended by a trusted neighbors retired solar man. I needed advice on an older system that had stopped working. After an informative phone conversation with Anil, I was confident he was the man for the job. Very professional and courteous. He was spot on with his diagnosis and fix. I feel the cost of the repair was very reasonable to boot ! Thanks again Anil ! Sincerely, George Freeman

We received excellent customer service and quality craftsmanship. Our solar panels are still in outstanding working condition and we are so pleased with the money we have been able to save with them.

I met Anil a few years before there were state and federal financial benefits. After a brief explanation to let me know what was involved to install solar at my home, he suggested I wait a few years so that I could benefit from rebates and federal tax exemptions that he thought were coming. I was surprised that he basically was open for business but considerate of the best financial solution for me. He was willing to walk away from business at that time, in order for me to wait for a better time for me.

For him, with or without state and federal benefits for me, he would still do the same work and earn the same money. In fact, to take advantage of the state and federal benefits, required him to do more work and fill out more paperwork to benefit me. So years before I actually did the install, Anil earned my great respect.

When I finally contracted with Anil to install my 10K system a few years later, he explained the process in fine detail which I appreciated. He did what he said he would do, and kept me informed every step of the way. The day my children and I turned the solar 'on' was a very exciting day for all of us. Anil comes back every now again to see how things are running (and they are running well) and to inspect the panels. His contract also guaranteed more years of his personal service compared to other solar contractors.

It is clear to me that Anil's passion and expertise for solar renewable energy is matched by his thoughtfulness, conscientiousness, and integrity. I would highly recommend Anil.

Sumintra LLC installed both my solar electric system and solar hot water system for our home in Chester County. Anil is a highly professional and approachable engineer. He is both conscientious and efficient. He can also be counted on to follow up on the project if you have any questions. His prices are fair and his work is excellent. I highly recommend him.

Anil was the second installer to give us a plan for a complete roof mounted solar array and hot water system, and the difference between him and his competitor was apparent from our first meeting. He explained all the factors that influenced the plan, showed us the cool device that maps the sun exposure, but most important, figured out a way to get extra panels onto the roof by moving the hot water tubes to the far side of the roof, but mounting them above it, increasing our kw by about 10%. His approach to the installation itself was equally as focused on quality. When he had a choice, he always took the way that might have required more effort on his part, but that resulted in a better outcome. Plus, his installation was very neat and workmanlike, and he gave us all the supporting paperwork for reference. Last, whenever we have a question, he responds immediately. We cannot recommend him HIGHLY enough!

Amil did a fantastic job installing my solar panels. He took extra care to get things exactly right, which really impressed people who are knowledgeable about construction. He was consistently responsible, reliable, and professional. He completed the job well within the expected time, and he checked in with me after the installation to make sure there were no problems. I'm sure he would have come out if I had any complaints, but I didn't--he did it right the first time!
He not only does great work, but he is friendly and pleasant to work with. His prices were also extremely fair.

I am thrilled with the solar PV installation on the roof of my rowhouse in Chestnut Hill. Anil Babooran, principal of Sumintra, is extremely knowledgeable, energetic, thorough and extremely conscientious. He was able to advise on all available rebates and stays in touch to make sure all continues to work well.
