These guys are top notch. I echo everything recent posters have said. Quick and easy, almost too easy. Did our homework and had 4 other companies come and quote/sales pitch. Took a neighbors referral and signed with Mike (agree with other posters, this dude knows the business). We're in a new development that they understand the job and install like the back of their hand. From signing to being "off the grid" was 3 weeks. Install of 16 panels and 1 battery took 3 hours. Zero regrets.

All I got to say is Mike French! He is the man! He was nice, easy to talk to and explained everything that we needed to know and answered all of our questions. At the end of our consultation with him, we did not feel any pressure to hurry and sign up with his company. The installation crew came in on time on the day it was scheduled for and got everything done in one day. I definitely recommend this company to anyone who are looking into getting solar :)

We shopped around for a PV solution and decided to go with a Sunpower solution early. We looked around and checked out others and narrowed down to two companies and it came ultimately down to who could possibly get us in this year as we really wanted it in place before Christmas, plus we wanted to claim it for our tax rebates. As it was already late in the year, we thought the chances were slim, and were surprised when Mike got back to us and advised that not only could he confirm they could do it this year, the price he gave was below the other vendor. They knew our area and due to past

We just moved into a new home in a new development, so we definitely knew off the bat, a list of things that we wanted to invest into our home. Solar was one of the things on the list. We had a bunch of sales people from various companies come knocking on our door trying to sell their products and services. It was definitely overwhelming and a lot to take in as we are a family who moved from a town home to a single family home. It was definitely a big lifestyle and financial transition and took a few months to adjust to our new normal. When we finally settled in, the talk of solar came up again

Mike French has been my contact person since 2016 installation of 20+ Solar Panels. He has saved me a lot of money plus helping to save our planet.
I have not had a single problem and am happy to have bought Made In America products where reliability is superior. Yes my panels are made in America.
I have referred my friends to Mike French to use for their solar needs. Unfortunately one friend went with another company which went bankrupt during the pandemic.
When their entire garage flooded due to faulty installation, they struggled to get in contact with their solar company. It was a stressful

SunPower by Ecosolar a locally owned Top tier company. Mike,Chris and the whole team have been a pleasure to work with. I installed my system back in 2012 and have had zero problems. I have saved thousands of dollars! Thank you so much! SunPower panels can't be beat in my opinion. The craftsmanship and details that the Tech team did on our Ohana's home was appreciated. Mike was super through with explanation of how everything top to bottom of the whole process and install would go. Mike shared critical information on my decision to go with SunPower!

Where to start. Mike is the man! If he doesn't know it, I doubt anyone in Hawaii will. He does not try to upsell you and makes sure to answer all of your questions. He made me feel comfortable with my decision on going solar and the setup he recommended. I decided to go with Eco Solar based on the many reviews of the AFTER install assistance. Hopefully you will never need it, but it is reassuring to know that it is there. The fact that Eco Solar provides so much AFTER install support shows that they stand by their product and installation. Installers were very professional. From

Let me start off first by thanking Mike and his entire team for an easy and amazing experience.
We are so excited to be able to say we have solar. 16 Panels and a Tesla Powerwall later....we are proud to say we have taken a step to go green and save money!
We both were cautious in making the decision on going solar with our new home purchase. The idea of the process seemed daunting with association rules, HECO, tax incentives, and even financing.
Mike arrived at the house already looking at our setup as he walked into the home. Efficiently assessing and walking me through the system as we

Michael French! This guy knows his stuff.
I will attempt to keep this short as possible...
We had a meeting with Michael French on May 26, 2021, he answered every question we had during the meeting and made himself available everyday after that to answer any other questions that came up along the way, to this day his expertise is just a phone call away!
Financing, he helped us find the best bang for our buck, broke it down to what we would need to show the bank and what he will need to get started.
Ben came out the following week to take measurements to ensure what was planned does fit on

I'm going to gush, so this may sound fake or at least exaggerated--but if you read the other reviews, you'll realize my experience is right in line with other people's.
The TL;DR version is: WOW! I met with Michael French on Monday, June 14th and my solar panels and Tesla batteries were installed and working on Monday, June 28th. (Yes, two weeks later--I am absolutely blown away at the efficiency and professionalism--they weren't cutting corners, they were just incredibly capable.) The panels are producing like crazy; the installation looks great; I am a very happy customer

I had my system installed several years ago with 2 tesla batteries and 18 panels. Mike, Ben, Coleen, Chris, along with the whole install team were awesome. My system initially had several bugs but Ben (Owner) personally came to my house and it's been great ever since.
Fast forward to covid and now with everybody home, my system isn't cutting it. Going to install 8 more panels, and Mike was amazing at coordinating everything. These guys are very busy, but Mike will always pull through. If you want a great system and the best team to install it, look no further.

Wanted to thank Mike French and the whole team of ecosolar for the excellent service. I researched about a dozen companies before I picked this company and I'm glad and fortunate I did. First off, Mike provided a detail explanation of solar, inverters, and batteries, tand how they stand apart from the other products. I also did my research and reviews from other companies and the other companies did not provide the best products nor the best warranties (and full service) than ecosun. I also trust Mike as he is basically a genius (though super humble in his achievements, you will need to

It was a pleasure working with Michael and his team at SunPower! He and the guys were always professional, courteous, and they did clean, quick, and precise work. When I had a construction delay for permitting reasons, Michael worked with me on pricing, equipment, and installation timing. I live in Kapahulu, and my system generates a ton of power (maybe too much!), and I like having the 2x Tesla Powerwall 2's for overnight power. It looks like I won't have an electric bill anymore, and will probably make some money from selling back to the grid. I definitely recommend SunPower for excellent

From the very start of the process Mike French explained ever detail of purchasing the Solar system.
After getting financed and moving into the scheduling date, SunPower front office called and emailed everything from layout, tax papers.
On install date not only did I have 10 installers, but the owner came by with my sales person, just to see if I was happy.
Great company. Recommend highly front start to end of the process.

Put in a request online to be contacted by a Sunpower dealer to discuss the product and numbers. Mike from Eco Solar contacted me the following day to set an appointment. Very knowledgeable and not pushy. Didn't feel like a used car salesman trying to pressure me. Both him and Chris, the installer, were always very quick to answer texts/emails/phonecalls. Great experience all round bad enjoying my new solar system!

Buying from Eco Solar wasn't just a purchase transaction! The entire process was *engineered* to educate me and my family and the science, installation process, social impact of the alternative power movement. Our salesman, Mike is someone who has stayed in touch and always a GREAT resource for the latest events in the alternative energy industry.

SunPower by Eco Solar was a smaller SunPower dealer who was cheaper than their competitor. I was glad I went with them. Installation was fast and they are great company to work with. Love the quality and efficiency of SunPower panels even though it is more expensive. SunPower also backs up their panels with removal, replacement panels and installation that most other panels does not include in their warranty. This is very rare due to SunPower's panel quality.

We hired SunPower by Eco Solar to expand our system that was installed by a different company. They worked with us to figure out how to fit the additional panels on the roof without having to move our solar water heater, which saved us a lot of money.
The crew was professional and courteous and even gave our old inverters a check-up, just to make sure everything was running smoothly. We would recommend them highly to anyone looking to get solar.
