Featured Reviews for Solar Power Contractors in Vacaville, CA

The Solar Bros
Solar Power Contractors in Vacaville, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 February 2018
“The Solar Bros are the best company! I found them online through the BBB and they seemed to have a great rating. I had gotten my fair share of quotes for Solar but figured I would give it one last chance. I called them last month. They were able to set an appointment within 2 days, which was very quick! Darin showed up on time and had a packet with all our savings, panel layout, and everything I needed to feel comfortable about making a decision. They work with a bunch of programs to get solar. Being retired with no income and not paying taxes, Darin showed me a program that didn't require any credit, requirement, income verification, or down payment. I can't claim the tax credit because I am retired but I still ended up saving 40% a month on my bill. The install was fast and the best part is I don't have any bill with PG&E!!!! If you are looking for solar go with THE SOLAR BROS!”
Solar Electric Pros
Solar Power Contractors in Vacaville, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 January 2017
“I hired Solar Pros to install a Solar system on my mothers house last year. They were very professional and the job was completed on the date they said it would be. It is hard to find a company that keeps there word. Solar Pros did just that. Everything they said would be done was done exactly like I was told. I will use Solar Pros again and would diffidently recommend Solar Pros.”
Pac Solar Corporation
Solar Power Contractors in Vacaville, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 November 2014
“Eric and Pac Solar are great - from initial discussions, to the bid and contracting process, to installation, permitting and establishing our ability to monitor the performance of the system ourselves. Explanations were clear and thorough; facts were well documented; communication was crisp. The system, at least initially, is performing as promised. I recommend Eric and Pac Solar without reservation.”
Mr. Sunshine Solar
Solar Power Contractors in Vacaville, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 March 2021
“Going Solar was a big decision for our family. We did a lot of research and ultimately found Mr. Sunshine Solar to be the most educated. They were very patient and did not try to push us or use endless sales pitches to get us to buy from their company. They were always available for questions throughout the process. They handled all of the paperwork and permits and made sure we understood how the steps worked. They built the right package for us. They did not try to oversell us or get us to choose something unreasonable and trendy but they worked to create a system perfect for our home and needs. The crew was very polite and everyone was very dependable. I highly recommend Mr. Sunshine Solar.”

“Rick Coven at American Solar is very nice to work with. He is professional and thorough in his approach, and he follows through on all that is discussed. Given that we decide upon more solar installations, we will work with American Solar on our projects.”
Simply Solar
Solar Power Contractors in Vacaville, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 May 2018
“They were honest and not pushy when selling me my solar. Then they were quick and took care of everything between the sale and installation so that I didn't have to worry. The installation went great, and then between the panel outside and the app, I can always see how much energy and money I'm saving! I'd recommend them to anyone for their honesty and professionalism.”

The Solar Guys
Solar Power Contractors in Vacaville, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 October 2020
“From start to finish it was a great experience. I dealt with Tristan and he explained everything to me. The crew came out and were professional in everything they did. When they were done they made sure it was all cleaned up and ask me if there were any questions. I would highly recommend this company to anyone.”
Illuminate Solar Company
Solar Power Contractors in Vacaville, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 January 2020
“We used Illuminate Solar to install a decent sized (11.5kW) system. Mark and his team were great, and I would recommend them without hesitation. They were honest, timely, and clean. We bid out to 6 different installers and they were tied for the lowest cost. Unlike Tesla who has set panels they use in set increments (4, 8, or 12 kw systems and only 320w panels), Illuminate worked with us to get exact right size system and panels to maximize our roof area and needs. They also worked to get the installation done quickly to qualify for tax deduction. Highly recommend.”

Installing solar panels on the roof of your Vacaville, CA home can help you avoid the rising cost of electricity, increase the value of your home, and reduce your carbon footprint. Solar energy is clean and renewable, and government rebates, subsidies and grants encourage homeowners to make the switch. Solar power systems can heat your home, produce electricity and provide hot water so that your home is entirely self sufficient. So whether you want to improve your home’s energy efficiency, save money, or do your bit for the environment, use Houzz to find the best solar power contractor for your needs.

What solar power systems are available?


The two main solar power systems are on-grid and off-grid. On-grid systems – also referred to as grid-tied and utility interactive – are connected to your mains power supply. If your Vacaville, CA home produces more energy than it uses, your meter goes down and you generate credits with your energy provider (check your state government for details on any rebates available). On-grid solar panel systems have lower equipment and installation costs, and will save you money through net metering.

An off-grid solar power system uses battery banks to store the electricity you produce. These battery banks store the sun’s energy so you can use electricity at night or on a cloudy day. This system is designed to keep household electricity running for about two or three cloudy days; longer cloudy periods require a backup generator. Off-grid systems are most suited to households that have no access to the utility grid, and are sometimes a cheaper alternative to extending power lines in remote areas.

Hybrid and portable solar power systems are additional options. A hybrid uses two or more renewable energy sources – usually wind and solar, while portable solar systems are used mostly in farming, fishing and camping, and can be set up when there is no access to mains electricity.

What types of solar panels are available?


There are three main types of solar panels that can can generate electricity for your Vacaville, CA home: monocrystalline, polycrystalline and hybrid. The basic monocrystalline celled panels are fairly efficient and have outstanding performance in cooler conditions, but are marginally more expensive than polycrystalline, which works better in hotter conditions. Hybrid panels use crystalline cells with a thin layer of film, which attracts more energy. This makes hybrid models the most efficient solar panel installation, but also the most expensive. To talk about which solar panels are best for your home and how much energy they produce, contact a Vacaville, CA solar panel company or installer on Houzz.
