Three projects in one shot!

I chose Smart Solar after going through the process with 3 other solar energy companies. After considering the financing options, the technology, the warranty, and associated servicing, on that alone, I would have gone with Smart Solar. Except I also had other needs. I wanted to upgrade my analog panel to a Smart wi-fi panel and I wanted to convert my gas water heater to a hybrid electric water heater for the additional energy savings and related rebates. Only 2 of the 3 companies were willing, 1 required I purchase the panel separately, and the other wouldn't take on my water heater need through their employed electricians. It was out of their wheelhouse and they weren't willing to take on the "liability". Only Smart Solar was able to work with its local electricians to independently wire a new switch for my water heater and take on the smart panel as part of the whole project. From a local, flexible, and understanding of customers' needs, hands down Smart Solar was the best choice. If you're looking to go solar, I hope this post is helpful to you in your project. We're super happy with our end result. Our smart panel allows us to see all kinds of data and usage that a stand-alone solar system is unable to provide. Overall, it was a great project bringing us closer to having a zero carbon footprint and our way to being more self-sufficient. Now, looking forward to battery technology maturing and setting up a backup system but that's for down the road. We'll likely turn to Smart Solar for that too. Best of luck!
