    Had 9 existing solar thermal pool heater panels on my roof. 12 years old and leaking quite a bit…read more Had Excel Solar come out and give me a replacement bid. Their bid was $13,000 and they wouldn't warrant their work unless I put a new roof on 1st!! Metal roof is 20 years old....good for 40 years. I assume that they worried about adding more roof penetrations for tie-downs. I found an outfit in CA, Solar Pool Supply Inc. I worked with Tyler. I sent him my panel measurements and my existing tie-down placements. He set me up with panels that would utilize the existing tie-downs. I paid $4,500 for the 9 panels and installation parts. I tore the old panels off, cut them up, and had the city pick them up for free. Took me less than 6 hours to install the new panels. Not a leak! (I'm pretty handy, but am not a plumber. Actually an IT computer nerd.) FYI, I took the time to put roof sealant on and around all the existing tie-down brackets for my piece of mind. So, back to Excel Solar's "generous" bid....I would think that being in the business, they would be able buy the panels for about $3,000 where I paid $4,500. So the $13,000 bid included about $10,000 labor. The job took me, a rookie, less than 6 hours with no other help. So Excel Solar wanted about $2,000 an hour labor. Stay away from these guys. Nuclear scientists and brain surgeons charge less.

    Salesmen over promise and the solar product underperformed. Every aspect of electricity production…read morewas way off on the low side; monthly and yearly production was consistently 20 to 30% less than promised.
