CTEC Solar

Edwin from C-TECSolar was our sales consultant. He arrived on time and spent the time with me to go over the advantages of solar, what my system would be, the offset I should expect and the cost. He made sure I had the opportunity to ask questions and I was fully aware of all the aspects of the solar conversion process. His professionalism and thoroughness was one of the main reasons I went with C-TEC for my solar installer. Although I don't have experience in the design, installation and performance of the solar system that will be installed yet, if their anything like the consultation process, C-TEC should do a great job in the rest of the process.

We installed solar nearly a year ago choosing C-TEC Solar from a field of four due to their knowledge and competitive bid. Every client has a manager, who is always available, for any questions or concerns. Installation was excellent and the 'look' is so blended into the roof (black on black) that often people are unaware that we have solar. We do recommend this company.

Install coordination was excellent and performance of the 9 kW rooftop-mounted system has been better than anticipated. Estimated install and tax credits were accurate. Any review ultimately comes down to would I use them again or recommend to a friend. The answer to both is yes.

Purchased a solar system from them. salesman wrote a 25 yr warranty that covered panels and inverters. I now have a problem and they will not service me until I pay for a service call in advance even though I am covered under the warranty.

Has any CTEC customer achieved their expected annual kWh savings? For the second year in a row the panels installed will generate less than 90% of the engineered design. CTEC guarantees as low as 80% of designed production. The system seems to be designed to generate between 80-90% of the guaranteed annual kwh. Given this design the financials for solar power using CTEC don’t appear to be worthwhile. When I inquired about the shortfall last year I was told that the panels do better in the second year. I’ve spoken with neighbors who installed the Tesla system and they’re over achieving their contract.

Edwin tried to lie to us about the rebate, Then the solar panels arrived. I had to unload them. Guys were over a hour late. Electrician spilled glue in my basement and used my cleaning supplies to clean up. The same guy left material in front yard and I hit a piece with my mower and hit my wives car. They told me I need extra support in my garage and I didn't. I wasted a whole day off. I was promised a gift card for my aggravation and that was another lie. Don't use them you will be sorry like I am.
