ES Electric & Solar, Inc. at 2210 Taylor Road A, Penryn, California.

This review is for ES Electrical and Solar. I’m a research person by nature and it’s no coincidence that ES Electric and Solar were recently voted Loomis News Best of the Best for Solar in 2014. First off, they were recommended to me from a PG&E technician that recently installed solar on his personal home. At that point, I scheduled a meeting with the owner Eric Salci for a site visit, but my bills were too low to consider a system a few years ago. Since then, add a pool and a hot tub, and within one month I know Solar is a no brainer to stay away from any upper level tiers from PG&E. BTW, it’s these top tiers that are constantly increasing in rates year after year. Tier 1 from PG&E has remained pretty constant the past 20 years or so.

Eric came out once again and brought his Solar Eye, which does a great job of accurately forecasting the energy production from the planned panels over the entire year. When the owner of a small business who has 17 years’ experience behind him comes out personally and takes the time to give a properly designed roof layout prior to receiving a signed contract, it goes a long way in the relationship building category. This compared to high pressure sales people coming to our home and explaining what their crews will do for us is a tremendous contrast.

After his analysis and the payback period, it was evident to start the project right away. Bottom line, we’re going to pay for energy one way or another and we’ve always been owner mentality people instead of renters. The idea of having our home completely operated by the Sun is really an amazingly good feeling and a value we emphasis to our children. After all, it’s our legacy and the wake of what we’re doing which their generation will inherit. It’s only been about one month and already I’m spinning my meter backwards with 2200 lbs of CO2 Emission Saved, 56 Equivalent Trees Planted, and 4,400 Light Bulbs Powered for a day. I feel there’s an Electric Car completely powered by the Sun in my near future!

The installation crew was top notch. My job went over in estimated number of days on site, but I can tell the crew and owner were more interested in doing a quality job then buttoning up the project quickly. I can’t say that about other contractors who have come to my home. My installation was really detailed (with possible wind speeds at my home rated to 105 MPH) and they took great care adding extra mounting brackets and making sure the install was as esthetic as possible.

Bottom line ES Solar and Electric is a top quality company and you can expect over the top customer service from Eric, Meleah and install crew. Highly recommend them to anyone looking at Solar.
