WindSoleil

Wind Soleil is tremendous! Specifically, Teddy, who was an amazing manager. Teddy ran the crew, he was the first person I dealt with; he gave me his phone number right away and told me to call anytime (which I did and he was very responsive). The crew always cleaned up daily, were very polite and walked me through everything that was being done, including setting up the 'app'. I would completely endorse 'Wind Soleil' as a great company to work with. I was also very impressed with the salesman Brian, who was also very helpful and responsive.

WindSoleil was thorough in their system design and presentation, willing to discuss options (including an upgrade to Panasonic HIT High Efficiency Panels) and accommodating in their construction schedule. What amazed us with the SolarEdge monitoring we have been able to track, manage and cut our consumption while watching the solar panel production. Overall WindSoleil with the Panasonic panels and the Solar Edge monitoring met and exceeded our expectations.

Teddy (owner) was communicative throughout the presale, installation and post-sale process. There were some issues with SREC claiming process with our state, but we are working through it. Windsoleil has a team lead in each of the major steps and each person was communicative and can be easily reached. Teddy operated as the overall General Manager if any issues arise.

They refuse to resolve the problem they created back in December. The owner stalls and has made no real effort to fix it.

I am very happy with WindSoleil. I have recommended them to multiple people and so far 2 others have used them and they are thrilled. The advantage of a local company is they listen to the customer! I had some unique requests and Teddy and the WindSoleil team made sure to meet those needs. They handled all the paperwork from design to final inspection and submitting the SREC rebate. I am looking at a 4.5 year ROI and I highley recommend everyone go solar.
