Orange County Solar - Profile & Reviews

Advantage: LOCAL in OC. Recommended by word of mouth. My friends were very happy with them. Certified Panasonic installer.
Sales consultant - Jeremey was great. OC Solar is extremely efficient in communicating with you - available to answer all questions by phone/text/email. Instead of relying on phone or virtual appts, the property is evaluated using satellite resources + history of electrical bills and quote is provided immediately. No unnecessary sales pitch, right to the point.
Execution of work: I did not get a weekly update as explained in the beginning. However, my job was on a smaller scale and the contract began in Dec 2020 during COVID pandemic. Replies to my inquiries were prompt. Had issues with the existing type of roof tiles that required added roofing work. Again, handled well between Ashton (proj manager) & Jeremey. All the workers were professional and courteous.
Result: Panels look great. My options were Panasonic vs LG panels. OC Solar certainly helped me with my decision making. My friends were happy with their post-installation service.

Make sure you call Orange County Solar. Jeremy, Vince, Ashton, Carlos and the entire team at Orange County Solar have absolutely provided us a first-class experience. They are the finest solar solution available with the top of the line technology at competitive pricing. Everyone is so knowledgeable. They are the perfect home improvement partner completing everything from clear proposals to building permits and city inspection. I didn't have to worry about a thing.

Everyone is extremely professional. Jeremy is always on site helping other homeowners and businesses but always had time to meet our expectations. He listened to what we wanted and then showed us what and how it works and then he did exactly what he said.

When we first started researching solar we spoke with four different companies. Two of the four were trying to sell us what was important to them. Not Jeremy. He listened to our wants, needs and desires and put together the right number of panels to help us turn solar into electric and give us control of our electric power instead of the other way around. It was a hard to decide between our two finalists but we selected the right team based on references, pricing, technology, responsiveness and warranty, which is the best in the industry. We will save over $3600 per year and the system will pay for itself in 3 1/2 years. We will make money sending our power to the grid every year going forward.

Request Carlos's installation team. They were clean, efficient, courteous, professional and not only did fantastic work they were extremely knowledgeable, explaining everything I wanted to know at each phase of the installation and completed everything in a day and a half. Ask them about how they take care of your roof by using S hooks instead of drilling through your roof.

At the conclusion of the project I elected to get more details about how billing works, production vs consumption, time of day, etc. Ashton's customer service team earned our trust and walked us through the somewhat confusing electric company processes and even handled all the electric company communication and documentation.

We have already confidently referred two friends and neighbors knowing that our family name brand is secure with a partner like OC Solar. If you're smart you'll call this team first.

I had a great experience with OC Solar from beginning to end!

Jeremy, the Sales Manager, was great. He was able to put together a very competitive quote upfront, and was able to answer all my questions regarding going solar. Going through the research and process of getting solar quotes can be very stressful and confusing, but Jeremy was able to answer my questions thoroughly and he was able to provide his honest opinions regarding my solar system. I ended up going with a 6kW system with Panasonic HIT panels and Enphase IQ7+ microinverters.

After the contract was signed, things moved very quickly and efficiently. Ashton, the project manager, always kept me updated regarding the timeline and when we would hit certain milestones of the project. In addition, the solar installation needed to be done concurrently with my roofing project. This added some logistical challenges, but Ashton was great and was able to accommodate and effectively coordinate his crew to work alongside the roofers.

My system looks great and I know that I'll be in good hands for future support since OC Solar are an authorized Panasonic Solar installer, which means you get the extended 25 year warranty as well!

Overall, I highly recommend OC Solar!
