Solar Bear - Profile & Reviews

Great company. Over all we have had a great experience with solar bear and I would highly recommend this company to all my friends and family.

Staff technically proficient. Very polite and helpfull

Antonio and tuck from the spray foam crew did amazing job with my home. I would highly recommend to all.my friends and family

To the person Came out and sold me the solar bear system to the person who came and hooked me up at the very and every person that came was helpful concerned and they did their job effectively and I really appreciate that especially seeing as how I'm having trouble with somebody else right now in business.

Save the headache. Go with a different company. My brother and sister used superior solar..wish I had. After a great sales pitch, we felt like our solar installers should be Solar Bear. We had to inform them of a fire code set-back they weren't taking into account and this should have raised red flags. Unfortunately, we thought it an honest mistake and continued with Solar Bear. They came out to install the system without letting us know AND without sending us any final plan layouts for approval (which were promised when we pointed out the still present fire code issue to a "carebear" while on the line with her and the sales person). Luckily, we were home for the installation to continue. Upon going for a walk, I noticed that they were still in violation of the previously mentioned fire code. They had already drilled into our roof, but were told by the project manager to just repair it and change the layout...again, we didn't approve any plans. In fact, it was about a week AFTER the install that HOA sent us an email for the approved install. This was in July and we still don't have working solar because we haven't had an inspection because the county hasn't approved their plans...the same plans for the installation that they already completed. Why was work done on our home before final plan approvals? I feel like this is a step before acquiring permits. I'm hoping they have all permits. But, I don't have any answers because we haven't spoken to any project managers or superiors. We only get replies from customer service and all they can do is apologize. We only get updates when we initialize phone calls to them. How is it okay to not finish a $30,000 job for someone and feel like you don't have to keep them in the loop with updates? Maybe because they've already been paid? We’ve begun payments on a financed system that isn't working and was supposed to offset energy bills that we are also paying. Not to mention the worry that the final approved layout will NOT match what they've installed and will cause further damage to our roof. They called us, after we filed a complaint with BBB, and said they now had the permits. We told them we need to see said permits. They said they were sent and the company had a tracking number and that we should receive them in a few days. This was over a week ago. No permits. No update. HORRIBLE.

Everyone was great at solar bear. We are very happy how we were treated by the staff. I would highly recommend this company.

Everything was great with solar bear I am glad everything is up and running now. Thank you will for helping us understand the app and address last minute questions.

It was a awesome experience over all me and my family are happy we said yes to solar.

Not to mention the worry that the final approved layout will NOT match what they’ve installed and will cause further damage to our roof. Is there a warranty response for the repairs they have already made and will potentially have to make due to their faulty business practices?

Working with Solar Bear to get our solar system was an excellent choice. The salesman was very helpful and if he didn’t have an answer he got back to me right away. Installation went smoothly and everyone I worked with and talked to at the company were always very pleasant and helpful.

Very friendly and knows what he's doing.

Everyone from Solar Bear was wonderful. The young men were fast, efficient, and so polite. They answered all of our questions, all in one day. Super Team, and wonderful customer service.

Everything was great and professional.
The panels where installed very fast and we are very pleased with the service

I decided to go with SolarBear, not because of pricing, but because of the efficiency of the solar panels chosen and the reviews on the EnergySage site. Unfortunately the whole process has been a disaster. I highly recommend anyone looking for Solar to stay away from this company. 5 months into the process and my panels are still not turned on. I would say there is still at least another 1-2 months to finalize the meter swapping and turning on the equipment if I get lucky and I get someone at SolarBear that knows what they are doing.

Install was quick fast! People at Solar Bear answered my questions timely also.

My experience with solar bear was very good, thanks

The sales person is like a used car Salesman trying to get the sale for every penny they can get. I was offered a 10kw 33 panel system with blown in insulation in the attic and a Generac natural gas generator back up for $94k, If you do the research you'll find the average cost is $1000 per installed panel, blown in insulation only costs between $500 and $1000 and a 16kw Generac generator is only about $4000. So this job should only cost between 50 and 65k. I hired someone else who installed an 11.7kw system with a 16kw natural gas generator for $65k
If you want to deal with Solar bear, Don't be suckered in to a contract and shop around.

The rep Max was very honest, took his time made sure I was educated about solar and the process was smooth and easy.

So far everything has been great. Solar bear is a excellent company and I can't wait to see how my solar save me money. Will did a great job explaining everything to me so I now have a better understanding on whT to expect.

When purchasing a new home
Getting solar panels was at the top of our to do list! We reached out to solar bear schedule an appointment simple easy to do. The representative Kevin Harris was very knowledgeable & detailed. In his presentation video it states that if we chose not to choose solar bear he would simply shake our hand and walk away.
We chose not to let him walk away and we signed the contract right then and there.
Kevin Harris taught “us” exactly what solar panels do and how they work.
Thank you Kevin Harris.
Our Family was so excited to make the planet more Eco-Friendly. The day the crew arrived with the solar panels was exciting.
The crew just took off into action flew up on the roof and just started laying down the panels they were fast,neat, clean, and very polite .Thank you crew!
Our Family was also very impressed with Sean, Sean taught “us” newbies how the generator box and panel works, he even showed us how to upload the app and read it as well. Sean thank you as well!
So Overall it was the best decision ever.
Thank you Solar Bear!

The people with solar bear were very attentive and respectful. The process was quick and easy. Would definitely recommend this company to anyone looking to make the switch to solar. ☺️

Great Company to deal with everyone was professional and respectful will highly recommend them to anyone

Met Luis at Strawberry Festival and a few days later he came out to do a free quote. He reviewed everything with me and I moved forward. The panels were installed pretty quick. We had a delay to due CoVid for final engineering and inspection but once things were back Open things moved along and now generating solar power. Overall very happy with everything and looking forward to making solar energy.

Great company to do business with i would highly recommend them to all my friends and family

Whole experience from beginning to end was 5 star. Panels were installed within two weeks of initial contract signing. Whole process from beginning to end took 4 months. Staff was always courteous. All electrical upgrades were completed and included in original contract price. System was turned on and producing power without any issues.

Excellent system and service. Responsive staff and a great app to see system performance.

Great Service! Everyone was very knowledgeable and answered all questions. Definitely a good company to do business with. Looking forward to lower electric bills!

I am very satisfied with the all conversion project from start to finish. Extremely professional and punctual. I am glad that I chose Solar Bear over five other companies.

Called to find out about Solar here in Florida. Jay came and explained everything to us in a very professional and complete way. He answered all of our questions and we made the decision to move forward. We had a great crew of people come in and work in our attic to remove all the old insulation since we went with that extra option. After they left the actual installation took place and again we were impressed with the friendliness and efficiency they exhibited. Electrical installation took place at that time also and I must say it is a very clean install. Very professional. Insulation was installed and all is great. We had a little bit of a wait for the county inspections, but that is no reflection on SolarBear. All looks great. Today we had Will Garcia come and show us how to turn the system on and monitor it from our phone application. Again everything has been explained in detail. Great company to work with. I strongly recommend them.

We have had a terrific experience with Solar Bear. From the rep that came in and explain the whole process, jealous, to the final sign off by will Garcia. They have been great to work with, answered our questions properly and thoroughly, and explained every step of the process. I would recommend them to anyone who is interested in lowering their electric bill and helping to save the planet. We have a great feeling of satisfaction knowing we are doing what is best for us, using this clean energy source.

Our overall experience with solar bear was exceptional starting with out sales rep Jason Murphy to the install team also exit surveyor will garcia.i would highly recommend this company.

Overall everyone did a fantastic job at solar bear. The salesman and installation crew were top notch and did a great job explaining everything about solar. The girls in the office help throughout the process with communicating back-and-forth with everything going on and I couldn’t be pleased with the great customer service. I would highly recommend solar bear to all my friends and family.

Will was great. He explained everything clearly and made sure we had all the information we needed. The installers were great. They were clean and organized and did the job professionally.

Product seems to be of good quality, salesman was awesome in seeing how well the system could work for us. Install crews were fast, polite, and helped us to understand what they where doing and where we were in the process. Exit survey helped me vent a lot of frustration I’ve had a long the process. Which took a lot longer than I ever thought it should have. I still believe the process will be worth the end result. Most frustrating part of the process was the lack of communication I received. They got better as the process dragged on, and I’m happy to report 8 months later. I finally have a functioning solar system.

This is my 2nd solar system. Based on 8 yrs experience with my previous system i am pleased with my new system. Having solar installed and owned simplified my house being sold in Arizona. Thank you Solar Bear.

Solar bear is very great, the staff are amazing, keep communication going throughout the process
