    10 Q-Cell PV panels 340W each paired with 10 Enphase 240W IQ7 microinverters.
    Alex G.

    Do not recommend. QSD designed our system against manufacturer recommendations by using significantly undersized microinverters (Enphase IQ7 vs. IQ7Plus). This results in a significantly decreased energy output estimated at 750kWh annually by Enphase in turn resulting in a significantly decreased value of the system. The decreased output is mentioned nowhere in the contract or any other documentation. Nameplate system size in the contract: 3.4kW. Actual peak output due to undersized microinveters: 2.4kW resulting in severe power output clipping and decreased annual production. Refused to do anything about this while producing misleading production estimates after the fact - after installation in May 2020. In addition: did not connect the system to WiFi for reporting. Very slow to respond to requests (phone or email). No estimated production numbers or any other metrics other than the nameplate system size in the contract or any other documentation. Summary: two major failures with a number of smaller ones: (1) did not follow manufacturer recommendations in using radically undersized microinverters; (2) did not disclose any estimated production numbers in the contract or any other documentation. P.S. I was initially ecstatic with QSD given they were highly recommended to us, and the fact that they could actually install a system where several competitors including Tesla, Solar Optimum, LA Solar Group - backed off for various reasons. Yet given the support experience, inexplicable design decisions resulting in very real monetary damage to us, and their multiple attempts to produce misleading production estimates - I can't recommend them.

    Work DONE!

    Inspired by the two weird/oddball 1-star reviews, I need to put in my 2-cents. I really don't know what a stink pipe coming out of an old roof has to do with Quantum or solar panels in general, but that does NOT look like Quantum's work. As a real estate broker and avid DYI'er, I followed Quantum into my attic, onto my 2-story roof, and asked a lot of questions. I watched their workmanship and the materials they used. Let's put it simply: The team at Quantum is amazing and they do great work. Questions I had throughout the process were diligently answered -- and I had a lot. The initial meeting with Dwaine senior was beyond informative and I thoroughly enjoyed the presentation. I had two other meetings with companies who seemed to have little knowledge. The installation team is friendly, prompt, and cares about your property. They even made multiple trips to Home Depot to make sure to touchup my conduit lines with the correct matching house paint (stucco is notoriously difficult to match). They also accommodated how I wanted to pay and were transparent with their pricing (cash, loan, etc.). Further, after the installation, I had an issue with the conduit lines blocking access to a certain part of my attic. The team at Quantum immediately took care of this concern free of charge and rearranged the line to accommodate me. Class acts!! Quantum will also sell pigeon netting. I did not choose to opt into this, and, sure enough, had pigeons start living in them. Fortunately, I used my drone to chase them away and annoy the heck out of them every time they tried to land again. They never came back. Thanks Dewaine Sr/Jr, Cathy in the office, Freddie the electrical guy, and Chris the followup man!! You rock! Kevin P.S. If you want more personalized insight on this review, please feel free to call me: (805) 727-3239.

I really appreciate the direct accountability and quick resolution. I'm leaving my original review below for transparency, but their prompt response today restored my confidence in their management. I originally had a positive experience with California Solar Electric during my 10.12 kW solar and Powerwall 3 installation last year. Unfortunately, their post-install customer support and business ethics are nonexistent. I referred a friend who completed their installation months ago. I was explicitly promised a $500 referral bonus for this. After months of waiting, I tried following up multiple times privately to give them a chance to make it right, but I am now being completely ignored. It's a shame because I have several neighbors here in Fountain Valley who are currently shopping around for solar and battery storage. I was planning to refer them here, but I cannot recommend a company that fails to honor its own written agreements and ducks communication. Buyer beware: the installation team does good work, but do not trust a word management says about referral incentives or post-sale promises. Still waiting for my $500.

However,…read moreit's still about 4.8% below the minimum guaranteed production (accounting 0.25% maximum annual panel degradation). It's 4 year in a row now the system failed to produce the minimum guaranteed production. AWS Solar chose to compensate for the shortfall again; we'll see what the 5th year production looks like. I suggested replacing some of the panels with the higher power ones to solve the issue, but I guess they want to see more data.

    I hired AWS Solar to install solar panels on my home In May 2026. They completed the job a few…read moreweeks later. They did a very good jod. I am pleased. However, upon completeing the job, the project manager Tim Broughton called me, helped me log on to the Enphase app so that I could monitor the panels. After I confirmed that I was logged in, I was told that I was up and running And they were done. I was happy thinking I was now running on the sun. Wrong. So very wrong. I received my electric bill and astonished to see the electric portion was over $800.00. I called the power company and was told that the $130.00 application fee had not been paid. I notified Mr. Broughton and he immediatley saw that the bill for the application fee was paid and apologized for the error. Now the fun begins. I called the power company and asked when they would be out to install the proper meter for solar panels. I was informed that no application for a meter to be installed was on file and that I had to submit an application for interconnection. Hmm? No one mentioned anything to me about completing and application or that I had to contact the power company. I completed the PTO (Permission to Operate) form and based on the questions being asked and the information I needed to provide leads me to believe the Solar company was responsible for completing this form and sending the required fee. Ok. Lets not look to for someone to blame, lets just get the proper meter installed. I completed the PTO and submitted it. The power company came out a couple of weeks later and installed the a new meter. Onlyit was not a meter for solar panels. They installed the same new meter but it was the same meter as the meter I already had. I asked them why they didn't put on a solar meter and I was told that I needed to submit a PTO for a SOLAR METER, which is different. And by the way, they have a special person that installs solar meters and a special person to install regular meters. This seemed rather stupid to me. I ask the power comapany rep for the contact info for the solar department and he told he didn't know. I won't name the power company. LADwp. The one good thing the DWP rep did upon arriving to his office was to send an email to contact the proper department at the power company. I assumed he would have just gone about his business and let me flounder. I started on the second application which asked for job site photos. This was to me another indication that the solar installer was suppose to complete this form because Joe Citizen would not know what photos they were required. I did observe that periodically, the workers would take photos, but none were ever sent to me. Now I'm in the middle of August 2026 with fingers, legs, arms, eyes and anything else, maybe the dogs and cats, crossed hoping that this time I will get a meter. The bottom line is I would still recommend AWS SOLAR to anyone, but I'd have to caution them to make sure they get you connected and ALL fees are paid. Because I was dealing with the City of LA and being constantly sent to voice mail and waiting for call backs, this experience was horrendous.

    Here is my journey from start to finish--and why I'm extremely happy with the result:…read more Initial Consultation: Ish recommended a design that allowed me to install more solar panels than what other vendors proposed. His approach required a small modification that no other vendor had ever mentioned, and it made a meaningful difference in system capacity. Design Phase: Ish and his team were incredibly flexible in accommodating my specific preferences for how the panels should be grouped and connected to each Tesla Powerwall 3. We held several conference calls with their technician and architect to review and validate the design, and they were consistently willing to collaborate and adjust based on my input. Installation Experience: The installation itself was much quicker than I expected. The longest part of the process was simply waiting for the Tesla Powerwall 3 units which was a Tesla supply delay, not theirs. Rebate Assistance: They also helped me secure a rebate that I wasn't even aware of, which was a great added bonus. Overall: Ish and his crew went above and beyond. I've done extensive research on how to fully maximize the Tesla Powerwall 3, and through my conversations with them, I was able to clearly confirm their technical expertise and confidence in delivering a high-quality installation. I wholeheartedly recommend them.
