I have been researching solar companies for the last 2 years. I decided on Solar Max because they…read morewould work with my reverse mortgage. It turned out they are a great SALES company with no integrity. The initial installation went smoothly but things started to pop up after the installation. First, they were supposed to install an extension so I could run a generator should the Duke System go down. After the installation, they told me that my breaker box was maxed out and would cost me an extra $2,100 to replace it. It would have been nice to know when their Solar Max electrician came to inspect my home BEFORE they did the installation. The second thing is the most egregious, The salesman said I would receive a 30% tax break when I filed my taxes. I told him that I was retired with a fixed income. He promised my payments would not exceed a certain amount as long as I gave the tax rebate back to the lender. However, he did not mention that as a retired person, with a fixed income and no W2, there would be no tax rebate. I did not find this out until I filed my taxes with my tax attorney. No W2, no rebate equals a Higher Monthly Electric Bill, an additional $100/month. I called and spoke with the Operations Manager twice. He promised they would get to the bottom of this and return my call. Two months later, and no callback. If I could rate it no stars, I would. I strongly suggest you find a reputable company. This company is not.

Part of the salesmand pitch is that the buyer, would get money back once you filed your Taxes…read more Bullshit! If your income is tax free, like VA or Social Security Benefits, than you get nothing back. If your income is not that much you won;t get what the salesman stated, you'll get less!

Be very careful before signing papers with this company. I made the mistake of doing this without…read morereading the fine print. I came across some serious family issues and needed to cancel my plans of getting solar put on my house. It was also more than 10 days after when they said in the paper work they were going to have the construction done on my house. I hadn't had one thing done to my house by them at all. NOT ONE THING. They put a lien on my house and are insisting me to pay 5% of the contract amount. I asked them to take off my lien and they said no. I told them I would most likely be willing to take them to court and they said if I did that then they would change their request to the entire amount of the solar system. My solar was going to cost $50k so I now have to pay the 5% if I don't want to file a law suit on them which I will. That's $2500 for getting nothing from them. I've spoken to other solar companies and read through their paper work and not one other company I've seen holds their customers feet to the fire like this. I would never recommend doing business with AC/DC Solar LLC. If you have signed their paper work cancel it quick before the 3 days are up. Do not sign their paper work.

SO GOOD I offered to buy the company! I know great service and great products and great business…read moremodels when I see it. I talked to both owners, Christina and Jared, because they both came to my house at different times during the installation, and I'm an inquisitive and demanding customer (Warren Buffet was my neighbor back in Omaha) ... you make me happy, you're the best at what you do! I even offered to buy a percentage of the company, but they turned me down saying, "This is our life's work. We love what we do." They killed the competition. SunPro/ADT ($45k) was almost 50% higher than the price of Bay Area Solar ($31,776). A third less memorable competitor was 20% more and far less professional and friendly. Installation was fast and professional. I've been researching solar panels for 30 years so I knew what I was getting, and I got the best bang for the buck. No money down, $8261 Federal Tax Credit, $160 a month for 20 years, written guarantee that all my panels will produce 95% of what they produce the first day of installation, or Bay Area Solar will replace them for free. My bill with Duke has consistently been the minimum $35.96, with a few winter months around $60 due to more cloudy days and angle of the sun. My neighborhood was built in 1978, and my neighbors consistently pay $300, $400, and sometimes $500 a month.

SEM Power was selected by Sarasota County Solar Co-Op in 2017, I was one of hundreds to use SEM…read more.. honest opinion from the beginning was the installers were knowledgeable and efficient and did a professional job. For years I am happy with my decision to go solar. Today, 20 May 2026, sadly I am informed that SEM is no longer in business... don't know the reason and don't know when that happened. I would give them five stars for installation, but can't because they don't exist, I am left disappointed and will award SEM a single star because they were dishonest about notification and the promise of deinstalling/reinstalling my panels for free, one time when the roof is reshingled. Now to find a reliable replacement company.

They closed. I was informed by another local business who is apparently taking over all of SEM…read morePowers clients.
