    Two battery banks. Usually charged by noon and we run the house off them at night.
    Tim H.

    There are times when it's a pleasure to write a review, this is one. No hard sell and Charlie, the sales pro, was helpful and not a hard sell guy. In fact, he was kind enough to reach out only after I asked. Other companies would call and call, until I finally blocked the number. One called me 7 times in one day! Once I agreed that what they proposed and what I wanted were in sync, I got a wonderful Project Manager, Jessica Shropshall. She kept me up on everything. Even after all was said and done, she remained helpful. If there was a hiccup, she would tell me and was always quick to answer my questions. If you get her on your team, you are in excellent hands. The install was fast and the lead tech, James, blew my mind with his nice ways. He took his time and did a great job. He was informative and friendly. Now, when they installed the new electrical panel, my doorbell got disconnected. Ouch. They tried to get it back running, but in an 80 year old house the wiring doesn't always lead to what you might think. So, we agreed that I'd just buy a wireless doorbell. Done. Every company will make a mistake. How they care for the situation it's what matters. Jessica took care of it all and soon a reimbursement check was in my hand. Goodness, even the Controller is amazing. I've had a service call, nothing big. Rick will be out next week and over the phone he made it clear that Solar 360 wants to do it right and make sure everything it's working efficiently and as intended. Amazing. I paid a chunk of change, but now that it's done and evening is complete, I'm confident that Solar 360 will be helpful for decades to come. A serious FIVE Star group of people!

    Tiles falling on tenants

    RUN FOR YOUR LIFE! IF YOU WANT TO LOSE YOUR HOUSE TO A MECHANICAL LIEN FROM A SOLAR PANEL MANUFACTURER OR YOU ARE OK WITH LOSING YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS TO POOR WORKMANSHIP, THEN GO AHEAD AND DO BUSINESS WITH THEM. I almost lost my family due to their negligence. Roof tiles fell after installing the panels and almost injured a family member. I tried to text and email them but their complacency was on a whole different level and their excuse was "we're busy". I reached out to the sales rep that sold me the solar system and he confessed that he is not happy with their business practices. The owner had been ripping people off and taking their money, and installing panels on their roofs that were not paid off to the manufacturer so the manufacturer who couldn't get any money from Solar-360 put a mechanical lien on the homes. When the owner was confronted with this, he said several times that he will go bankrupt (another lie) so that the victims won't go after him. He even didn't pay his employees and they filed complaints with the department of labor against him. The owner Frank is a horrible person, he doesn't care about anything once he gets your money. He will put your family's safety in Jeopardy with his poor crew workmanship and expose your house to a lien with his sketchy business practices and all the money he owes to the manufacturer. Even his business partner walked away from the business after all the sketchy business he did and all the people he ripped off. The company has treated other homeowners that I referred horribly and it was a super embarrassing situation for me. The owner, Frank, called me after several attempts to reach to him and his employees who didn't give a crap about the situation. He said verbatim: "I won't fix it, go get a lawyer".

    Sales process with Charlie was great. Contract was signed in March of 2023. As of February 2024, solar 360 still is (was) unable to get their act together to get a $50,000 job done and I eventually had to fire them (they still have not refunded my $1000 deposit as of this writing). The biggest issue is their lies and lack of communication. Without diving into the play by play, I had 3 different project managers because the first one quit, second one was fired due to lack of communication, and third one had an issue with telling the truth. Continual missed deadlines, claims that plans were submitted when they weren't, claims that they were waiting on the city but after asking the city I found out that solar 360 had been sitting on revisions for 45 days without resubmitting. See photos for small sample of some of the many lies and absolute dysfunction. Aug 21 - plans are submitted and moving along. Sept 5 - your people were fired. Sept 8 - your previous person lied and the plans were never submitted. I asked upper management to call me multiple times, when I FINALLY heard from Rene, he promised to get me updated within 48hrs. I called him a week later and he told me "sorry, I totally forgot about you because I went skiing in big bear and caught a cold." If that's the type of business owner you want to deal with, solar 360 will be happy to string you along for a year.

    Our electricity bill was getting ridiculously high in last summer. We figured it was not too late to get solar despite we missed the NEM 2.0 deadline from SCE. We were referred and recommended by our family member who had Solar-360 installed their solar system before. We contacted Charlie Kim who gave us a detailed quotation. We also obtained two other quotes from companies that were referred by our neighbors but we eventually picked Solar-360 due to their competitive price and Charlie's professionalism. He never hard sells and upsells to his clients. He listens and understands exactly what we need and built the spec from there. Other people just kept bombarding us with calls and emails. Charlie was able to address all our concerns and warranty questions before we went ahead and signed a contract. It took a while for the city and HOA to approve the installation. Installation went well - Solar-360 completed it in 2 days. They even repaired/replaced few roof tiles for us as a courtesy service. Final city inspection approval and SCE permission to operate also went smoothly afterwards. The system is working very well and it exceeds my expectation. Charlie even assisted us to apply for the SGIP rebate based on our backup battery purchase; that's an A+ service! In summary, I highly recommend Solar-360 for any solar system and backup battery installation. Thank you Charlie for a solid 5* experience!

    Do you provide ground mount, car port type solar installations?

    Yes we can do ground mounted system and we can also do carport installation.

    Hi I am trying to reach your service department but no answer at all. I needed to take out solar panels for re-roofing?

    Hello Amit. Please provide your number and I will call you to schedule.

    Was told when contracting with 360 the work on my roof would be warrantied for many years. My roof is leaking and I had to get a roofer to investigate why. He said there are broken tiles under the panels! Who do I call at Solar 360 for warranty?

    Hello Steven. You can call my cell 323-321-2204. I’m the VP and can assist you.

    I have a solar 360 system and need a service visit but voice message and nobody calls back ? What is the best way to contact service department? production seems low but unable to monitor via imternet so need a service call

    I’m sorry no one has contacted you. Can I have your name and number and we will call you back

    We have a 26-year-old concrete tile roof. Can solar be added without replacing the roof?

    Yes it can, but because replacing the roof in the process of installation Solar qualifies the new roof for the 30% tax credit, most homeowners choose to take advantage of the incentive.

    Do you install on metal shingle roof?

    Yes we do.

    Is there a new phone number? I've called the number on your website and no one ever answers.

    Can you please tell us what number your dialing

    Do you have any experience installing on a foam roof? Hi Frank, there are several communities in Orange where because they have primarily flat roofs that foam roofing is the norm. Many of these homes have solar. Many of the homes have solar panels.

    I’m sorry, We do not install on foam roofs. I am not sure you can install on a foam roof because of fire hazards and leaks

    What brand of panels do you install?

    Thank you for contacting us. We sale an array of panels including LG, Panasonic, Q cell and Canadian Solar.

    I wanted to share my recent wonderful experience with my recent service visit with Infinity Solar…read more I purchased my system in 2024 (detailed review also done); during this time, my solar generation has been absolutely wonderful, and sized perfectly by Kay. My electric bill is essentially free over all of 2025 and this year. Some months have a $10 dollar bill, other months negative depending on how sunny each day is. I have had zero issues whatsoever and system works like clockwork. The installation over my tile roof, done through Terrazas roofing, partnered with Solar has also been top notch with zero issues with multiple major storms last year. I would say i was 110% satisfied with my decision to go solar and with Infinity solar. Fast forward to 2026. A series of recent power outages resulted in no power in my home. My initial thinking was that my system should have generated power with a fully charged battery during this outage. After calling Infinity, it was relayed that my system per contract was only set up for load shifting by design, lowering cost which I had decided on. After discussing 2 options to allow for backup power generation, i decided to proceed with the upgrade. Throughout the process, the entire team supported me exceptionally, starting with Sara who stepped in to help speak to me when the service department was not available at the time. As i did'nt understand my contract fully,, i reached out to Kay in sales, whom i did not speak to in 2 years, who really went above and beyond to explain to me in full detail how my system was set up, and options i had to upgrade. Kay treated me like family. I was so appreciative of her kind approach. She helped coordinate a technical call with Joel to fully answer all my technical questions. Once i decided i was comfortable with to proceed with the upgrade, the service team took over, with Vanessa and Brianna helping me schedule my service. Vanessa and Brianna work tremendously well together; super friendly, pleasant, professional and helpful. I requested looking into a couple options which Vanessa followed up on and accommodated without hesitation. A straight forward and exact quote was provided on Thursday. Their service and help was fantastic and greatly appreciated. Upon approving my quote on Thursday, my service was completed on the following Tuesday, much faster than I expected. Upgrade was performed by Ivan, electrician specialist. Ivan also initially setup my system in 2024. His expertise is perhaps, in my view, the finest in the industry. I felt very fortunate and appreciative knowing i hd my system in the best hands. He spent about 3 hours working on my system, explaining all the steps. Work performed was tremendous. Ivan patiently answering all my questions on some of the system parameters forgotten over the past 2 years. System was up and running and verified to work fully with a simulated power outage performed through the fuse box, and through the app. I was thrilled to now have backup power during outages. Billing and final payment was as quoted and super easy. In closing, the real mark of any business is how you are treated after the job is complete. My belief is that Infinity solar lives up to their reputation of being an exceptional 5 star company providing high expertise solar services through all phases of a project; sales, installation, commission, operational life, and post installation services. In a business of fraught with fly by night companies, Infinity Solar is a true gem. Solar done right with integrity, highest expertise, and exceptional, prompt service when called on. Thanks again to the entire Infinity team. 5 Star once again! Dave C

Kelly was especially helpful keeping us in the loop and responding quickly whenever we had questions, which made the whole process feel far less stressful than we expected going in.

The contract clearly says service calls and repairs will be handled at no charge. After Barnes was sold, bought by "LA Solar Group", two of my Enphase inverters failed. The manufacturer provided the replacement part, with the help of "LA solar Group", but the new company "LA Solar Group" refused to cover the labor, even though my contract says otherwise. They told me they would not grant "Barnes Solar, Inc." warranties and labor wasn't included -- which is simply false. A cost of $650.- for the visit. This leaves customers like me stuck with bills for repairs that should be covered for decades. It seems the new company "La Solar Group" took over Barnes's customers but not the warranty obligations. If you bought from Barnes Solar, know that your 25-year warranty may not actually be honored. I'll be possibly filing complaints with the CSLB and considering small claims to enforce my rights.
