Most people are aware of the term "going Green" or green technology. In simplified language it just means conservation. We have already started to change our old habits. Folks are wasting less water, changing light bulbs to LEDs, turning down the heat at night and carrying reusable bags to the grocery store.
If there is a power outage will my solar photovoltaic system still supply me with electricity?. There are several factors to consider in insuring that your home is right for solar. First; does your home have a good south-facing roof which will get you the most sun exposure? If not we will seek other options such as a garage roof, outbuildings or a ground mounted system.

After a couple long dark, cold weeks without power, Barry and Ben saved the day with their knowledge and true grit for troubleshooting our solar problems. They kept at it to figure out some very strange eccentricities with our battery, inverter and charge controller - long after our original installers gave up.
They also left our setup better protected and safer then we started. They made sure they corrected code deficiencies and installed a ground rod too.
Barry and Ben came out during a busy weekend when nobody else would even return my phone call.
Best thing, is they spend the extra time

Wow! What a great family run company. We really needed someone to come out and help us with our set up. Not only did they do just that, but came out on a holiday weekend and did not charge us an arm and a leg. They took the time to go through our system for us, as well and presenting us with a write up on what they did and suggestions to help us in the future. So kind they were (get it Yoda) highly recommend this company as you will be so happy with their results.

As an employee and Barry's son, I have a unique and vested interest in our company. Barry does quality work, and he stands by his completed projects proudly. We provide customized installations of photovoltaic and hot water solar systems. As a small business, we don't have to pay for a fleet of trucks, secretaries, or any of the other overhead costs that a larger, more impersonal and compartmentalized company might force onto you, the customer. We pay these savings forward, so you get the best service, the products YOU want, and a competitive price. Give us a call anytime at (831) 484
