Ecohouse Solar - Profile & Reviews

We had our initial 8760 wDC system installed by ecohouse solar two years ago, which was completely effortless from the planning stage, to the permitting and pointing us in the direction of financing, and interconnection agreement. They were experts and helped us along the way with every step. The installation looks beautiful on our roof, but also the cabling leading to our inverter and electrical panel were also very professional and tidy-appearing.

We actually got the panels put up right after we moved into our house, so it was difficult to accurately estimate our usage (at the time they were installed, in Ohio, you weren't allowed to overproduce, so we kept the system size smaller to be on the safe side). With a year of power usage information, we decided to expand our system and add another 8 panels, and ecohouse solar was there to help us design and build the upgrade.

If you're even considering solar, contact the folks at ecohouse solar, and they'll make it happen!

We had EcoHouse come out to give us an evaluation of the project, gave us a clear estimate with details, timeline, and we moved ahead with the project. Had it done on-time. Ran into a problem during the process and they didn't up-charge us for the challenge, but made it work and we reasonable. We save energy, we help save the planet, we save money.

COMMUNICATION solves almost all problems in life. They actually communicate with you which made the process work. Have a problem with work? You might need to communicate more. Have a problem with your kids? You might need to communicate more. Have a problem with your spouse? Well, you might need to get them flowers more often as well as communicate more.

Good solar installation helps, but so does a dozen roses. We practice both and you should too.

EcoHouse Solar was helpful and engaged from our first meeting at a home show through occasional emails to check up on us. They did a great job educating us on the process and system components, incentives and financing available and provided an estimate in a timely manner. Once a contract for installation was signed, they did much of the leg work for us, from various permitting to setting up accounts with various entities (SolarEdge for power tracking and SolSystems for SREC sales). Most outstanding was the fantastic job on the installation. They took our questions, concerns and input seriously and made it happen.

Throughout the project, we dealt with EcoHouse's principles directly, from home show to their home sales / estimate visit to the actual installation - one advantage of a smaller company. We got the distinct impression that this wasn't simply a way to bring home the bacon; they believe in what they are doing, and provide great service and support along with it.

Kevin from Ecohouse was very helpful in our decision to go solar (and helped put us in contact with local banks to secure financing that falls under the Eco-Link program). He explained what would happen during every step of the process, and was responsive with answering our questions along the way. The contractors and installers that Ecohouse used were attentive and we felt that they were treating the work they were doing on our home just as they would their own. Kevin and his team even worked hard to identify a defective part in the system when it went "live" for the first time, working late into the day and even on weekends to get everything done. We couldn't have been happier with our decision to use Ecohouse and have recommended them to many friends and acquaintances already. We are thrilled with our decision to go solar and hope that many others will as well!

Ecohouse installed my 10.5 kW solar array. They did a great job. The result has a neat, professional appearance. The electrical inspector said that of several PV systems he has inspected, mine was the first that was done correctly. It passed the first time. Since then, the system has been working fine.
