SouthFace Solar & Electric

We got our solar panels three years ago and this company has been fantastic! Shout out to Danny for always pickng up my call or getting back to me when i have questons. They have made the process easy and it is comforting to know that they are responsive when i need them. That is a gamechanger…knowing you can trust that they will be there for you.

In 2014 SouthFace installed 40 LG solar panels with Enphase micro-inverters spread out over five different flat roof surfaces. We have a "southwest territorial architecture" with multiple roof levels so it is important to distribute the panels away from areas with parapets that create shadows. SouthFace did a complete placement design, handled all of the Scottsdale permitting, generated documentation for our HOA approval, and dealt with Arizona Public Service (APS) our electric utility. As it turned out our 25year old electrical service was outdated. SouthFace separately priced an upgrade to a new 200amp service panel, with updated breakers, that allowed for the installation of the required solar subpanel as well as improve load balancing of three HVAC zones. Over the last 10 years SouthFace navigated filing warranty claims for us to replace 5 panels and 7 microinverters that failed. The replacements were fully covered, we simply paid for labor to swap out the hardware. When investing in a solar array people forget that maintenance over time will become an issue. You want an installer that backs their work and is able to diagnose problems remotely. SouthFace may not be the largest or least expensive installer, but their attention to detail, particularly in the initial design and layout, maximized the electric production for our 40 panels. And their responsiveness when we had issues was prompt and fairly priced. I have no reservations in recommending SouthFace for residential design and installations.

The process to have solar installed for my home was painless. Aaron was easy to work with, from the beginning he explained all the details, what the steps are, how to apply for a loan if not paying in full, and kept me advised of what was going to happen next. The installers were courteous, cleaned up and also informed me when the city & fire would be coming to do their inspections once the solar was installed. I recommend SouthFace Solar & ELECTRIC to all considering solar

The crew over at Southface solar really helped me out when I was in a really bad spot. I had hired a company (NOT Southface solar) to put solar on my house and they came out and illegally installed it with no permits on a non permitted structure, they took my money and never came back. I was stuck with an illegal solar system that didn’t work. Southface solar was the only company in the valley that wanted to help me out. They came out assessed the situation and after finding multiple electrical hazards they made everything safe. They then put together a game plan, got the permits pulled and, came out removed all the equipment and then reinstalled it correctly and in a timely manor. Thank you to Corey and Zane and the crew that helped me and my family out. Their price was more than fair and they kept in contact throughout the whole process. I would recommend them to anyone looking to get solar.
