Testimonials

We switched to solar because we wanted to ensure that our electric bills would not increase in the future. We chose Cal Solar because from the beginning, we were impressed with the knowledge and speed in which our questions were answered. We tell everyone we know to use Cal Solar!

We’re paying the other guys just too much money. These guys showed up with some of the best options I could find. They gave me good pricing, they gave me a fair deal, and I couldn’t tell you how happy we are. We actually created personal friends out of this arrangement. They did an amazing job. I would have these guys back any time.

Other people around town said there is a good company here in Grass Valley, and we like to stay local if we can. The California Solar Representative did this great education versus a sales pitch. It was just getting me all the information I needed to have to make a good decision. The system works beautifully. We have this great online monitoring system that lets me look at my production all the time. Our energy bill is $10.

I’m impressed that California Solar is local. They’re very thorough and very knowledgeable. Of course Brandon and Rob could answer any question we had about how it works and what the options were for financing and what the best strategy is for making use of solar. I do like going out to our meter and having air conditioning running, and see that we’re still pumping electricity back to PG&E. I like that.

Last Fall a California Solar Representative had a table outside of Briar Patch. He followed up, answered my myriad of questions, and was very helpful to me in making a decision to go with California Solar. I had several other estimates done right around the same time, but felt that California Solar would give me the very best plan. The financing was made quite easy thanks to Michael. I am very eager to watch the return on my investment in future.

We interviewed several different companies for our solar installation but felt most comfortable with California Solar as they are local and offered an affordable solution. We now watch our daily savings from our new system.

We were looking at our local utility bill and it was getting out of control, so we were thinking to ourselves, my wife and I, what are we going to do here? What are our options? So Brandon at California Solar came over to our house. he was very knowledgeable, the quote was affordable, and I got the ball rolling. The experience was great — they were knowledgeable, they were fair, the price was right, and we were just happy with every step of the process.
— Torrey Bowman, Penn Valley
We chose Cal Solar because they came highly recommended by our building team. We had an all around great experience with the whole process. Ever since our panels have been installed, we haven’t paid anything for utilities. We designed our house to be 100% electric with a solar system that would achieve net zero energy use over the course of a year. So far, we’ve hit that target and it feels great to be energy independent!
