Install was great

My whole experience was good with the install and the operation of the system itself. I would recommend this service from palmetto to everyone I know. No more electrical bills for me!!

Close second

Salesperson Rob McClinton was great. Very responsive, provided a competitive quote. He worked closely with me and went to bat to customize the contract. Unfortunately, Palmetto's standard contract calls for 90% payment a week _before_ installation. From a customer perspective, that's not good contract management. Once a contractor has received 90% payment, what leverage does a customer have (except legal remedies)?

Thanks for the quote

Outside factors meant that the investment wouldn't pan out at this time.

Customer service

They answered all my questions politely and resolved a problem with a contractor.

Botched Installation, Did not get proper Permit/Inspection

As of now, I have solar panels installed that are not active, and that need to be removed and reinstalled before the town will approve the installation. This will likely cause delays that will cause me to lose the solar tax credit, completely, as a result of Palmetto/PlugPV's incompetence. PlugPV /Palmetto failed to follow the steps in the building permit process. I was not even contacted by PlugPV/ Palmetto about this, but I had to contact the town inspector myself to find out about the situation. PlugPV /Palmetto was aware of the problem a week ago but failed to notify me.

Understand who is actually installing and maintaining your equipment

I signed with Palmetto because they seemed to have the best pricing vs reviews. I had to sign MANY contracts because they kept making changes/ forgetting things, etc. I also had to read each one very close because every time they sent a new contract, they somehow "accidentally" kept changing out panels to cheaper models and trying to change from the micro inverters I requested to a string inverter which I said I did not want. It seemed pretty sleazy the way they were trying to sneak things in and out of the contract hoping I wouldn't notice. I finally ended up with the system that I wanted which they subcontracted to ESD solar. It costed more than Palmetto originally quoted, but it was acceptable. At this point I was mainly dealing with ESD, but my Palmetto salesman wanted me to go thru him for communication. That was fine, except he was always behind where ESD was actually at in the process, just made things up I guess if he didn't know, and would just ignore me if I asked a question that he didn't want to answer. After several emails being ignored by Palmetto, I only dealt with ESD from that point on. The install was scheduled and went smoothly. I am happy with everything that was done on install day. I wish I would have known about ESD and gotten a quote from them directly from the start, I probably would have saved a little money without the middleman that did nothing.
