PowerStream Solar & Electric LLC - Profile & Reviews

We decided to look into solar this year and used EnergySage to find local installers.

Powerstream was one of the three local installers that contacted us and gave initial quotes and they were by far the most responsive and took the time to explain things and hear our concerns and needs.

Their final system analysis showed that the system we wanted to install would not have been the most cost effective (because of roof angles and shading concerns) and they worked with us to find alternate panel placement that would provide most of the annual production that we wanted - and not cause us to spend more than we needed to get it.

The installation went off without a hitch and we were very impressed with the care and workmanship shown in placing the panels, running the wiring and mounting the inverter. Our system had a few unusual requirements because of the configuration of our house (electrical panel on the opposite side of the house from where the inverter made the most sense to mount, a full electrical panel that meant a line-side connection was the best choice) and Powerstream handled them all with ease.

After the install, once the system was live, I noticed a relatively small difference in panel output. Powerstream worked through understanding the issue and had someone out promptly to correct the configuration.

Highly recommend Powerstream if you are looking for Solar in their area!

We finally decided to take the plunge into solar this year. We used EnergySage to evaluate our options and had a great call with an ES representative. In the end, we wound up choosing PowerStream as our installers, and we couldn’t be happier. They are located not far from me, making any service related concerns a non-issue. And they had lots of experience in commercial solar, so they are used to demanding clients.

Our consult and system design were really straightforward. The PowerStream gang ensured I was maximizing the number of panels I could put on my roof, and they dealt well with the fact that I live in a twin where I don’t get along well with my neighbor.

The pandemic did complicate the install, but the PowerStream guys did a great job of keeping me informed and they scheduled the install for as early as possible after shelter in place restrictions were lifted. Their work was clean, they treated our house with great respect, and the panels are great. They generate a LOT of power - I probably oversized my panels since I’m effectively generating way more power than I need.

The only suggestion I’d have for them is to help a bit more with selecting the best power supplier once panels are installed. But otherwise, I’m very happy with their work and with my panels.

Absolutely wonderful experience installing my new solar panels with powerstream. They worked extensively with us to get the right system and layout for our rooftop solar and were the best value. The system they installed has already exceeded my performance expectations.

Couldn't be happier after working with PowerStream. There were two hiccups along the way, but neither was PowerStream's fault. The major one was because of our utility company and the other was just a misunderstanding on my part. Throughout it all, PowerStream kept me posted on progress and the delays caused by the utility company. Installation crew was knowledgeable and friendly. Installation took 3.5 days total, and everything went great - the electrical closet in my basement was actually cleaner when they left than when they arrived. They also took the time to work with me to make sure everything was set up the way we wanted it and to explain it all to me.

I would highly recommend PowerStream.

PowerStream were a pleasure to work with from start to finish, and the organization and professionalism of the installation team was a joy to behold. The whole installation of a 34 panel system was completed excellently and thoroughly in one and three quarter days. The worst part was the 10 day delay to get the permitting process completed while the sun was shining brightly every one of those days! There was a slight glitch in the permitting process largely resulting from our township inspecting more than Powerstream typically experienced and having extra inspection requirements, but PowerStream were very responsive and worked to avoid further delay in the permitting.
The system has been operating for 30 days now, and is meeting my production expectations. It has generated 994kWh so far, or 33.1kWh daily average. We need to average 39kWh/day over the year to meet our goal of 14,000kWh annually, 100% of our use, so coming in about 15% below the needed annual average for the month of October seems just about on track. The system has produced 9.91kW peak production so far, so hitting this peak in mid-Oct on a 10.88kW system seems right on track, and the days of complete sun have given daily production in the range 55-64kWh.
I'm very happy to have chosen Powerstream for our design and installation!

I was extremely close to using Powerstream. They answered all my questions and I did not feel pressured when talking with them. Izzy Brunori was excellent to work with. I eventually went with a company not on Energy Sage that I found thru a friend. However this was a very, very close second and a difficult opportunity to pass up.

I highly recommend Powerstream!!!

We've been considering solar since we bought our home 8 years ago. After meeting with and reviewing quotes from 10+ companies, we went with Powerstream. Hands down, it was a great decision. Our sales rep (Izzy) was patient, transparent and kept our best interests at the forefront of every quote revision we asked of him (and there were several). We looked at Silfab vs LG and ultimately went with LG. Not once did he try to use the typically pressure sales tactics of other providers (i.e. "if you sign today...", etc.). He simply worked with us honestly and helped us understand everything we needed to know to make an informed decision. Abner did the scheduling and was responsive and flexible. The crew that did the install (Jason & another guy - I forget him name, sorry) were professional and courteous. They showed up when they said theyt would and finished on time. There was a mix up with the inverter that was ordered and they called me to talk me through the differences. Honestly, I wouldn't have known the difference had they not called but after speaking with Powerstream we agreed to have the inverter swapped. Mistakes happen sometimes and that type of honestly is greatly appreciated. Jonas kept us up to date with PECO, etc. We just flipped the switch with PECO this week and our panels are live. We couldn't be happier.

PowerStream was amazing to work with. They were VERY responsive and ended up being the cheapest as well. I have been recommending them to everyone that will listen.

I received a wide variety of quotes through EnergySage, but PowerStream's was by far the best. They not only offered the lowest price per kW, but they also used the highest quality hardware. Their sales staff were thoroughly knowledgeable but not pushy in any way. They revised their quote for me several times, and each time, the cost went down and the production went up. Installation was bogged down a couple times because of the weather, which is to be expected. Their installers were courteous and professional. Excellent experience - I've already recommended PowerStream to my friends.

I shopped for several months with all the big names and many of the local installers in Pennsylvania. Ultimately went with PowerStream to install my 34 kW system. The experience has been great. They have taken care of everything. I have a beautiful ground mount system in my backyard.

The installation crew was fantastic. So much so that on the last day of I bought them lunch. Very hardworking and industrious. They were very clean and hauled away all the debris. They even swept the driveway.

I would recommend them to anyone looking to install a solar system.

Low-pressure sales pitch, good communication throughout the process, and everyone who worked for them was very nice and respectful. Overall I got a good system at what I think was a very fair price.

I have known most of their staff for over nine years and I have only the best regards to their impeccable work ethic and performance standards. I have had, and continue to have, absolute trust in their ability to do the job to the very best of their knowledge and abilities.

Daniel and his crew did an amazing job on finishing our project in a timely manner for a very reasonable price, I would highly recommend power stream solar and electric to everyone
