Amazing experience

I recently had the pleasure of working with Forecast Solar for the installation of solar panels and battery backup my home, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From the initial consultation to the final installation, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly efficient. The team took the time to explain the entire process, answered all my questions. The installation team was punctual, respectful of my property, and meticulous in their work. They ensured everything was installed correctly and safely, and they left my property clean and tidy after the installation. What impressed me the most was their commitment to customer service. They also followed up to ensure the system was working correctly and efficiently. There were a few hiccups along the way, but was helpful in remediating any small issues with any large project. Since the installation, I am thrilled to be contributing to a more sustainable future. I highly recommend Forecast Solar to anyone considering switching to solar energy. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment to customer satisfaction are truly commendable.

Nice People, Great Experience

Selected this company for a solar system based on the recommendation of a friend. The customer relations people were all great, letting me know what to expect and when. The installation team did a great job with the installation, including cleaning up after themselves. They were personable and communicative (happy to share what they were doing at different points in the process), inspiring confidence in their work. And their price was actually better than I had expected after checking around. I would recommend Forecast without hesitation.

Great company to work with

The team at Forecast solar has been great to work with. They got me a great setup that should be about right around 100% of my annual power needs if the system works optimally. They used about all the possible roof space I had available that would be worth putting panels on. Good value. I had an issue with the optimizer that caused the first month of power generation to not be as well as expected. They promptly came back out when I noticed what was going on and fixed the optimizer issue. They stand by the products they install.

An excellent choice for us.

My wife was nervous about considering penetrations to our expensive Presidential roof and said she’d almost feel better if a sustem could be installed by a roofing contractor . We were quite pleased to find that Forecast Solar IS also a roofing contractor. Due to a miscalculation, it turned out during the install that our available roof space could not accommodate the full number of panels we had signed up for. To make certain that our solar production would meet our original expectations Forecast supplied super premium high-efficiency panels to make up the difference in total wattage … at no additional cost to us. In the early months I had questions about the software app etc. Their office manager was very helpful and friendly. Great people and a great system. We are going on our fifth year now. We would do it again and we would do it with Forcast Solar. Doug Hertzog - Bothell WA

Forecast Solar

Forecast Solar was great to work with and did great work. They helped me with initial planning in my new home construction to make sure layout worked for solar panel installation on house and detached garage. My contractor was not into this so their input was critical and all went well. They are also roofing contractor so take great care with that aspect. Communication was never an issue.

Happpy With Experience

Overall, very happy with my experience with Forecast Solar. They outlined the solar program, educated me on my options (in-state panels/inverters vs out of-state panels/inverters), and worked with us through the inspection process. Lastly, they send out periodic email updates about solar legislation and ways to optimize our solar experience (cleaning the panels).
