PV Squared is worker-owned which means that each worker is invested in making the enterprise work. They care. They've been at it for nearly 20 years so they know what they're doing. The staff is professional, proficient and pleasant.
PV Squared did our first installation 18 years ago. When the panels, still under warranty, started to become less efficient two years ago, they worked with Panasonic to replace them free of charge. While the PV Squared installation wasn't cheap, but the PV Squared crew is the best!

We chose PV Squared to install 16kWh on our barn roof, and they did an excellent job. The process was easy, and everyone from PV Squared was helpful -- the one who came to survey our property and give an estimate, the workers who installed the system, the office people, the office and paperwork people. We couldn't be more pleased with the result, we love the system. It's been about 2 years now, and we've had no problems at all with the system, and will rely on them again if we ever expand to get more panels. We highly recommend PV2.
We did get quotes and speak with several other installers. PV2

PV Squared was fantastic to work with. They responded to every question and were completely responsive throughout the entire application, design and installation process. Their recommendations for size of system and estimated payback analysis were right on target. Every staff member we interacted with was courteous, professional and knowledgeable. We have not paid an electric bill since installing the system and have a large credit balance despite using the system to power up air source heat pumps which provide most of our heating and cooling. This now allows us the option of purchasing an electric

We had a fantastic experience with PV Squared. They were professional, helpful, and pleasant to work with. We are really happy with our solar panels. Our only issues came with the metering and measurement, as we have two meters in our home and ended up having trouble getting proper credits with the utility. PV Squared helped us figure out what the problem was and what to do about it, and helped with other things like SRECs. They care about customer service, and hopefully others will use them!

We had a great experience with PV Squared, start to finish. Each person who helped us was highly knowledgeable, kind and helpful. They took time at each step to answer any of our questions. Communication with them was consistently good. They helped us design the best array for our site, the construction went smoothly, and they supported us on into the phase after they were done. It's been working well. Maybe most interestingly, I've since run into PV Squared workers at a variety of local places, and they've uniformly been really nice. Thank you for a great experience!

I went solar with PVSquared in 2010 and the experience was phenomenal. We were undertaking an extensive renovation and PVSquared worked collaboratively with the other construction teams to ensure a timely and aesthetically beautiful installation. The system has produced clean energy for us (more than they even predicted!) over the last 9 years with not a single issue that required our time or attention. I could not be happier. They made it so simple. Oh yeah, and now I drive an electric vehicle. So with PVSquared's help, now I don't pay for gas anymore! The wins keep coming!

PV Squared was very easy to work with. They were not the cheapest of the installers I got quotes from, but they instilled the most confidence and offered the best panels. They did everything on time, were very conscientious about keeping things clean inside and out, and always took the time to answer the many questions I had about solar energy and the installation process. I have had my system for almost a year and it is performing beautifully. I highly recommend them!

PV2 installed my rooftop solar panels at the end of 2014. I chose them because I wanted a local company to install my solar system, they were highly recommended by people who had worked with them, and their representative was knowledgeable and easy to work with. The installation process went smoothly and I haven't had any problems with the panels in the last 4 years. I highly recommend them. In fact, I'm waiting for solar batteries to become sufficiently efficient and economical to have PV2 install them.

PV2 has installed a total of 25 kw at our business since 2006 and we have been very happy with their installation and subsequent follow up. They quoted us the cost for each of the two phases of the installation and they came in right on budget. They also took the aesthetics of the installations into account so they look good and the wiring and electric panels are neat and compact. They also helped us fill out the forms to qualify for the grants and tax credits which went through smoothly.
