The Verdict
Del Sol Energy will chase down a faulty inverter manufacturer for months and then replace the entire system at their own expense. We found an industry engineer who researched dozens of installers for his own home, chose Del Sol for their technical honesty, and watched them swap out a problematic inverter when the manufacturer dragged its feet. They also stepped in to honor another company's abandoned warranty, fixing a system they didn't originally install. Fourteen reviewers praised their workmanship without a single complaint, and thirteen called out their straightforward sales process. The install crew runs conduit to match your house paint, leaves spare roof tiles for future repairs, and preps systems for batteries you haven't bought yet. One customer changed her panel count three times during quoting and the advisor responded to every revision without complaint. Communication around scheduling can lag (one installer arrived to replace a panel without warning, another rescheduled without notice), but the equipment choices hold up and the crew cleans up after itself.
If you want the cheapest bid, keep shopping. But if you want an installer who'll replace a failing component out of pocket rather than point you to a warranty hotline, Del Sol is worth the premium.
3 Stories That Stood Out
Edward first met Del Sol when a previous solar installer walked away from his warranty and left his system in need of repair. Del Sol stepped in, repaired the system, and delivered solid results. Later, when he wanted a new solar setup for a second home, they produced a professional project design, offered a very competitive price, and handled installation with attentive service. The memorable thread through both experiences was that Del Sol rescued a neglected system and then backed that up with a well-documented, affordably priced installation for the second property — the warranty rescue and the clear project proposal are what stayed with him.
After months of comparing local quotes — including Tesla — Mrsc narrowed her choice to Del Sol. She pressed the team with questions about how much energy to produce (their oldest son was moving back in), bounced between 24, 29 and finally 27 panels, and watched as PJ patiently handled every tweak and recalculation. She learned early on that the company treated roof attachment as a technical priority, walking her through their mounting and racking systems so she could avoid future leaks where they had to drill into her roof. The crew used what she called superior products and even left extra concrete tiles in case replacements were needed later. The install took three days. Installers arrived professional, answered questions on-site, and kept the work neat — they ran conduit from the roof to the utility box and painted it to match the house, a finishing touch she didn’t expect and really appreciated. PJ stopped by during the process to update the timeline and resolve any last-minute questions. Beyond looks, the payoff mattered: she ended up with a well-mounted 27-panel system and a tangible financial result — they now pay less owning their solar system than they did to PGE, so

What You Can Expect
tlbryning walked into Del Sol Energy’s showroom seeking a full-home solar setup and ended up with a flawless, on-schedule installation and a new favorite habit: checking live system numbers. They watched the project move from first meeting through final hookup exactly on the timeline given, with Brian patiently explaining every detail and the office staff and installers behaving professionally at every step. The crew completed the job cleanly and to spec, and the ENPHASE app lets them see generation, home consumption and what’s being sent back to the grid in real time — a feature that has become the standout payoff of the whole experience.
Jeanneb1020 arranged a Del Sol solar install for her home and found the whole process smooth and uncomplicated. She appreciated being kept in the loop at every step, watched the crew arrive and complete the work on the promised date, and experienced helpful follow-up after the installation finished. The system delivered the savings she hoped for, and what stuck with her most was the combination of reliable scheduling and clear communication.
robertbakerian was racing the year‑end tax‑incentive cutoff when he started collecting quotes for a solar system. He found multiple bids that were pricier and couldn’t guarantee a December install, and only Del Sol Energy offered the LG panels he wanted. Pete at Del Sol guaranteed the job would be finished before year‑end and priced the LG 315W panels well below the competition, then backed the entire install with a 30‑year warranty. He watched Pete push the schedule hard and coordinate the crew; when installers arrived they had all 21 panels up in under eight hours. Del Sol also handed over the HOA paperwork and even painted the conduit to match the house, a finishing touch he appreciated. He stands by this local company because they met the deadline, delivered the specific panels he wanted at a strong price, and left him with full documentation and a long warranty.
Clintford found the company's pricing very competitive and moved forward with a rooftop solar installation. Two years after the install they still feel the panels and workmanship have held up well and remain happy with the product, the install, and the overall value.
Sue shopped multiple proposals on EnergySage and ended up choosing Del Sol Energy, working directly with Lori Ogorchock (lori@delsolenergy.com). She found Lori to be highly knowledgeable and genuinely client-focused, guiding the project so it felt straightforward and stress-free. The installation crew finished the job in a single day, with the work running smoothly and without hiccups. After the panels went live, Lori kept responding promptly to follow-up questions and requests. Sue summed up the experience with an A++++ — the one-day install and Lori’s fast, hands-on support are the details she wants prospective buyers to know.
Gonis chose Del Sol Energy for a rooftop installation on his house and found the whole process smooth from first contact through the final hookup. They requested the specific equipment they preferred and ended up with that exact setup, plus the Enlighten app for monitoring — which proved very easy to use. The installation crew worked efficiently, finished the job cleanly, and left the property tidy; what stuck with him most was getting the gear he wanted and being able to watch performance in the app right away.
Shopping for a residential rooftop system through EnergySage, cmamsluna discovered a set of focused offers and ultimately chose Del Sol. They appreciated that Del Sol’s energy advisor, Pete Jacoway, walked them through every question and kept the early process straightforward, and that financing through Sungage matched their desire for low interest and a short payoff term. Del Sol laid out a larger, more efficient panel configuration with LG modules and Enphase microinverters — equipment the homeowner judged to be the best overall and upgradeable for future battery needs — which delivered higher output at a competitive price. The Enphase app gave per-panel visibility that impressed them, and the fact that Del Sol is a local business felt like an added plus. Problems arose around scheduling and communications: about a week before the first install date they were still awaiting HOA approval, and Del Sol assumed approval wouldn’t arrive and quietly rescheduled, so the crew didn’t show and the homeowner was left disappointed when approval actually came through on time. The day after installation Del Sol returned to swap a faulty panel, but the come-back wasn’t communicated in advance.
After a friend recommended Del Sol, kfgutilla reached out to have solar installed. They found the company answered promptly with clear, no-nonsense communication, and the sales rep proved straightforward, well informed and accommodating without any pushiness. The installation went smoothly, and the system was tied into PGE within weeks. Del Sol had promised better value, lower price, more favorable loan interest, faster install turnaround and quicker PGE processing than competing quotes — and delivered on every one. What stuck with them was the follow-through: measurable improvements (especially the fast PGE hookup and promised loan terms) rather than just polished sales talk.
After a long search, jm0007 landed on Del Sol Energy and ended up with exactly the kind of setup they had been hoping for on their home. The system paired LG panels with Enphase inverters, came with a 25-year warranty, and was even left prepped for an Enphase battery once those become available next year. The crew handled the installation in a single day, and PG&E connection followed just 48 hours later, leaving the home ready for service almost immediately.
