POWERHOME SOLAR

I had nothing but problems with PowerHomes. On the first day of the install, one of the workers drilled a 2-inch hole through my siding into our master bathroom. They advised me they would replace the siding and fix the drywall the next time they came out, which could be up to 2 weeks! Who doesn’t want rain inside their home, I asked? I checked my basement to see if I had a piece of siding leftover from when we had our house built. Luckily I did and they replaced the siding that day. As they were cleaning up for the day one of the workers stacked five panels on top of one another. I saw him drop the last one on top of the rest of them. He didn’t lay it down gently treating it like it was a $*** system, he dropped it like a piece of plywood. The pieces were scratched, I didn’t know if they were broken. I approached the foreman and told him of the issue. He apologized and advised me that if any of the panels are broken you can see that on the app after the install is complete and that the panels would be covered under the warranty.
On the second install day, one of their employees fell off our roof, thankfully he was okay and wearing a tag-line! However, he did cause $*** worth of damage. I called nearly every day to try and get ahold of someone to schedule a time to have someone fix my deck and gutters. They told me it was going to take at least 2 weeks for someone to call, then 2 more weeks for someone to actually come out. I requested to do the work myself since it was going to take them so long to fix it. They said they would have to ask the “head of customer service”. It took 2 weeks to get a response! That was after I called a local manager, yelled at her, and told her that I was writing this review and seeking legal counsel. She did hang up on me, rightfully so. However, come Monday, since they don’t work weekends, all of my questions were answered. They said they would reimburse me the $*** worth of damage and that the service department would call me to troubleshoot why the panels weren’t working. Customer service called later that afternoon. They couldn’t figure it out so they gave me the number to *** customer service. *** discovered that there was a chip that wasn’t installed or was improperly installed and someone would have to come out to fix it.
Prior to all of this, I waited 2 weeks for the “MASTER INSPECTOR” to come out after the install was complete to make sure the system was properly set up. He never showed up! I received an email congratulating me that the inspection passed. I called and asked about it. They told me the “master inspector” looked at photos from the install crew and approved it and that nobody was coming out. Apparently they missed the most important part. The chip that allows the solar panels and the powercell, which controls the entire system, weren’t communicating. The PowerHome technician gave me her direct phone line and told me to call back if I had any issues. When I called the phone number the call could not be completed, even 4 days later she still can’t be reached. I had to wait until Monday to call and schedule someone to come out, yet AGAIN! This is the 2nd time someone was scheduled to come out and never did. So now I'm waiting for another week and the issues still aren’t resolved.
Due to their lack of concern about fixing the problem, I’m going to have to pay the loan for the solar panels, plus an electric bill that shows I didn’t produce any electricity. Customer service was not willing to help push back the first payment of the solar panels so I wouldn’t have two big bills to pay. Thanks a lot, PowerHome. Unfortunately, *** is associated with this terrible company. I’m sure the products are great but PowerHome is a terrible company. I’ll be contracting any services needed to a different company so I never have to deal with PowerHome Solar again! I hope I said enough for you NOT to go with PowerHomes.

The crew that installed our solar package was the most professional and friendly group that we ever had work on house, my yard was walked thru, to make sure no trash, screws, etc.. was left behind, they were on time everyday, and kept us informed on everything they were doing. The crew working inside even took there shoes off before coming into my house. They even passed on other money saving ideas that would help us. I only have two issues that I am not satisfied. 1. The solar box next to my main electric panel in the house sticks out of the wall, I ask to have it recessed but it was not, the other is the solar breaker box is not marked. I don’t know what breaker goes to what.

Crew was on time very polite, and very professional, left job clean

I received this request to review Power Home Solar literally minutes after the install of the panels (which won't be active for weeks) to rate the company, and that is the reason for two stars. A more reliable review should be done one year after installation to see if it's performing as sold.
All I can rate at this time is the install of 18 panels and the accompanying electrical work. All these were installed and very little mess was left for us to pick up.
Right off the bat, I'm going to have out of pocket costs which were not evident at the time I agreed to purchase this system.

Not satisfied on the system that was installed. Customer service said we are using more power then the panels can make. However going back a checking our usages before , if feel we are not. Feel the system was not design for what we wanted it to do.

So far, I give POWERHOME SOLAR LLC a big fat ZERO. They installed my panels 2 weeks ago and left my yard a disaster. I was assured by the crew that PowerHome Solar would be out to take care of the mess left behind. I've submitted pictures to the salesperson, I've left messages and emails asking when this would happen, and not a single phone call or email has been returned. How this company stays in business or has this rating is beyond me. Will update this review if things get any better (or worse).
