A Vasco Solar system can effectively double the length of your pool seasons, make your pool more warm & comfortable, and drastically reduce or eliminate pool-heating costs.
Solar water heaters, often referred to as solar domestic hot water systems or thermal systems, may be a good investment for your household. Families mainly invest in a solar domestic hot water system to provide an abundant supply of hot water. Domestic hot water solar systems provide the majority of the hot water, so no more cold showers!
We specialize in the solar removal and replacement for re-roofing projects. Be sure to have a licensed Solar Contractor help you with the solar to protect your investment. Prior to the tear off for your new roof, Vasco will cap the lines to the panels (if they are thermal) or provide the disconnect (if they are electric) and then remove the panels.

I would highly recommend Vasco Solar. Rick, Bryce and the team did a great job with the installation. It was a quick and easy process thanks to them. They were careful to keep us in the loop on everything they were doing and were very clean while on the roof and inside our home. I have confidently recommended them to friends after seeing what a great job they have done.

We got our pool solar heaters installed by Vasco Solar in June 2020. We had leaking issues mid-2021 and Lauren was very nice and responsive and sent someone right away to get it fixed. I'm giving them 2 stars because:
1. When they installed the pool solars, it looks like ALL the nails they used are popping out of our patio roof.
2. We are currently in the process of re-roofing so we need the pool solar removed and reinstalled. However, it took several follow ups before they responded with a quote and then their quote came up significantly higher. We asked for reconsideration since they installed

Very pleased with the service, the system, installation and the follow-up. The pricing was reasonable. Everything from obtaining the estimate to the PTO (Permission to Operate) went as scheduled. Very professional. They assure me that they will maintain my system in the future. I have no doubt that they will follow up on this promise. I would unequivocally recommend Vasco Solar to anyone considering going to solar power. Victor Valenzuela (happy customer)

We had issues with the installer of our solar panels, from another company. Being frustrated, cost us way extra money, we reached out to an Operations Manager Brantley, who immediately helped us with the situation. He even apologized for the other company, and was eager to assist us. We are now able to monitor our panels that we've had for 2 years! Wish we knew about this company before hand!

We were looking for a company to do solar pool heating and solar electric. Vasco seemed like a good fit (at least based on their website). But it was as if we, as a potential customer, we're begging for their business. We sent them all the info they had asked for, called them multiple times, sent emails, no one returns the calls or gives timely response. I had literally chase the hell out of them to get a quote. It's been days I asked them a question on the quote- no one has responded!
I even asked them to let me know honestly if they don't want the business (for whatever reason

Got someone to come out and gave a quote immediately. However, the earliest appointment is about a month out. I didn't get a reminder call or a start time of installation, so I called them on the morning of installation to get a time but they said they will call me back to confirm. I didn't hear back for hours, so I reached out again and again and again until someone finally picked up and said installation will be in the evening. No one came and no one called. Day 2, I called in the morning but no one picks up (they got caller id or something bc they won't pick up my calls). I left

Cannot say enough good things about our experience with Vasco. The team led by Justin was sooooo professional. They started early, were quiet and so very clean. Had to dig up a portion of our lawn for the piping and you would have sworn they never dug anything up at all- replaced as though it had never been disturbed. Everything was left probably cleaner than when they arrived. I must also acknowledge their team leader Justin He was so very knowledgeable and patient. We even video taped his instructions which has come in handy several times. I would give them 100 stars on a 10 point scale if I

This review is based on price, installation, the product and the Vasco owner and employees. I can't review warranty or support because I haven't needed anything (which is a good sign). The price for my pool solar was by far the best price out there. Installation was super fast, the project manager and the other guys were super nice and wore masks (even though they didn't have to outside). Rick the owner seems to be a honest, good guy and Lauren at the office is pleasant to deal with and very on top of responding. I can't remember the installers names (the people that really

Vasco Solar is the best! We had a system installed one month ago. Even in March we are getting 6-7 degrees per day. The pool is 76-78 in early April. Brice was easy to work with, the installation was completed on schedule, and so far has worked perfectly. Could not be happier!

It is a tad harder to find POOL solar heating than it is to find regular electric solar installers; they are different systems but solar "electric" tends to be the kind of ads one gets when using any search with the word "solar." Anyhow, one system generates electricity from the sun (solar electric) the other uses black piping to capture heat energy and heat water that is pumped through pipes up to your roof and back into your pool (solar pool heating). Vasco does both types.

Vasco just finished installing 9 pool solar heating panels for us. I plan to come back and re-review

Rick and his team at Vasco do wonderful work. I first used Vasco 20 years ago for a solar heating system for our pool. The system has worked flawlessly all these years and continues to work as expected.
My husband and I just purchased a new home. I spoke with two well respected contractors for their opinion on who is the best source for solar installation and upkeep. Both contractors said they only recommend going with Vasco. So it was a no-Brainer to again use them for my new home’s solar needs. This new project was for whole house solar to eliminate our Edison bill as well as providing solar

Very professional and affordable. We went with the electrical and pool panels for our house. It was easy to finance and they were installed in just a few days. We noticed a huge discount right away on our electricity bill and our pool was 80 + degrees when the sun was out. We are very happy and highly recommend Vasco. Glad we got to support this local Orange County business. 5 stars all the way around thanks again Vasco. 👍🏻

We have existing solar panels and wanted to have our roof updated. Our roofing company recommended Rick and the Vasco Solar crew. They did a great job coordinating with the roofing company to remove the panels the day before the reroof so we could generate as long as possible. Once roof passed inspection, they came out and put the panels back up. Very clean and efficient and easy to talk to guys. Job well done.

Vasco installed our pool solar system a few years ago and it has been great. We had a small leak and they responded quickly to fix the issue under warranty. Really love the system and the service!

DO NOT Even think about using Vasco solar. Once they have your money and slam in a system, they will not support you. I called for technical support and got the run around. I left a negative review on their support.

Vasco is now retaliating against me for leaving a negative review, Rick informed me he will Never send a tech out to help because my negative review.

Is this the kind of company you want to do business with???? Pick another company that is interested in their customers and not just money.

We used Vasco solar to install solar thermal heating for our pool and we have nothing but great things to say about them. Rick, the owner, personally came to walk the job site and was upfront about what was realistic for our situation and was able to deliver on a very competitive price. He was and Lauren were great on getting a timely estimate, site plan, and was available to answer any questions and concerns. They were able to slot us in in short time, and Justin and the crew showed up on time, completed the entire project in a day, cleaned up everything on the job site and were courteous and

The Vasco Solar team showed up on time and hit the ground running. They were extremely professional and also took all of our installation concerns very seriously. They installed the pool heater with ease and we are able to enjoy the pool as we are supposed to. Next we will be thinking about getting a solar electric system from Vasco!
