I had my solar panels installed 5 years ago by Tony and his team, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, Tony was on top of everything, providing excellent communication and service.
Patrick M.

I couldn't be happier with the service and quality from First American. Even with some items that needed trouble shooting, these guys were on top of it. They have my highest recommendation if you are looking for solar at your house. They use good quality materials, and although not the cheapest on the market, their prices were definitely fair.

I ultimately chose First American Solar for my solar panel installation, as well as a roof replacement. His team did an incredible job - the roof and panels look amazing. More importantly, I'm happy to report that the system has worked flawlessly for the past 7 months, and we've endured a significant amount of rain without issues. Thank you, Tony and First American Solar!

I would definitely recommend Tony and First American Solar if you need solar for your home. They weren't the cheapest, but were definitely fair in pricing. The quality of work and communication were excellent - even for a neurotic/particular person like me.

FIRST AMERICAN SOLAR DID A GREAT JOB ON THE INSTALLATION. Hopefully we'll get some rebates when filing this years taxes and it will pay off in the long run. It is nice to charge the plug-in hybrid at home and not worry about the electricity bill too. I highly recommend this company.

Satisfying experience with First America Solar, from the first day (scheduling online meeting with Tony) to the last day (getting PTO from utility company). Tony and Dominick are quick in response, answered all my questions via Email. Given such a reasonable price, I have no complain and feel very glad to pick them to install my first solar system.

I've had solar for about two years now and everything has been great! I worked with Tony who was very helpful and knowledgeable. I had a few concerns with my roof and the system I would get installed, but he was very accommodating and gave me multiple options and I felt comfortable making my choices.

First American Solar exceeded all my expectations. From the initial consultation to the final installation, their team was professional, efficient, and genuinely passionate about their work. My energy bills have significantly reduced, and the solar panels look sleek on my roof. It's evident that they prioritize both quality and customer satisfaction.

From Quote to the end, It was excellent! Tony was the great help to work thought the whole project with me. The price and the result are all perfect! I am glad to find this company for my solar with battery system. You saved me quite some money compare with other quotes. I am paying no electricity to Edison more than half years now. So far so good. The monitoring system is good and assuring.

I needed a repair for my inverter and they were out to my home promptly and got my system going again on the spot. Excellent service, both technical and customer!

It was a good experience. Their installers were professionals. They did clean work. The system has been flawless until we had a major malfunction. I didn't know what happened, but one of the inverters melted down, which caused a chain reaction. And that's not due to them. That was due to the ridiculous record winds and heat we've had this year.
Danny

I had a good experience with them. They were very accommodating. And if I had any questions, I know I could call them and they could come out. They're good. Customer service for me is very important and with his guaranteed work and warranties, I was very happy with it. And he has come out even after his job was done.

Frequently Asked Questions
If your question isn't addressed here, feel free to reach out—we're always ready to provide further assistance
Is there a warranty? If so, for how many years?
Most of our systems come standard with 25 years warranty on the panels, production, racking, workmanship and roof penetration warranties. This gives our customers peace of mind and an additional reason to go solar with us. We stand strongly by the quality of our installations and are committed to providing the most satisfactory experience when going solar with First American Solar.
How long does it take to install?
Residential installations generally take 1-3 days depending on a number of factors. From start to finish, the entire process takes a typical 4-6 weeks. Depending on the AHJ, however, it could be slightly sooner or longer. The (F)irst (A)merican (S)olar (T)eam is F.A.S.T. when it comes to getting all the necessary paperwork together for our installations, but we like to take our time during the actual installations to ensure utmost quality of work.
Do you subcontract your installations?
First American Solar has its own installation teams so there is no need to use subcontractors. We hire top talent and undergo an extensive training for our installers to ensure every solar project is completed in the same manner we would want our own solar systems installed. By trusting First American Solar with your installation, you are giving your project off to experienced individuals who have an immense background in solar installations small scale to large scale.
Will I be able to see how much energy my panels produce?
Yes! On each installation, we include a monitoring setup which enables you, the home/business owner to see your solar panel production in real-time via mobile app and/or website. Particularly with optimizers and micro inverter installations, you have the advantage of seeing each individual panels production.
How do you determine how many panels I need?
We start off by learning how much energy you used in the last 12 months (or up to last 12 months). What we look at is the actual kWh (or kilowatt hours) and also take into consideration whether you are expecting to use more or less energy after the installation of your solar system. Next, we take this information and design your system using high resolution satellite imagery, LIDAR data, solar irradiance, shading, solar panel efficiency, local weather station reports, tilts, azimuths, degradation, and many other factors to give you the most accurate estimate on what your solar system is actually going to produce.
