Description of Work: We took bids from 3 separate providers of solar. Sunation had the best product, the best pricing and most professional team. The work was performed as promised and they were very responsive to all our issues during the process. We had them return 2 years after installation to add bird netting to keep them from nesting under the panels. I wish this had been offered at the time of installation. If you buy solar panels opt for this feature. If you don't it will end up costing you much more in damage from the birds and the awful time getting them to nest elsewhere.

Description of Work: They did an excellent job installing and setting expectations. I only wish we had been offered the option of installing bird guards around the panels to avoid birds nesting under them which ended up being added at a later date and at a cost of disturbing bird nests, clean up, as well as more money. We did research several solar companies and this company was he best. You won't be disappointed. They are also very quick to respond to any issues that may arise (like the birds) and they take great pride in customer satisfaction. I would recommend them without reservation.

Description of Work: They installed a photovoltaic solar system. Installation was well done and professional. Their follow up is a little weak, they had promised to check the system yearly, which did not happen unless I called them, and when recommending them to my friends they were very poor in communication with them.

Description of Work: From our initial contact with the sales rep to completion of the job, every aspect of our dealings with this vendor was professional, responsible and responsive. The installation of the system was done when promised and completed quickly. The installation team could not have been nicer and easier to deal with and their dedication to getting it right - paying attention to details and making sure that all of our questions were answered - was and is impressive to say the least.

Magnificently!! I had a very good experience with this installation. This solar system was installed before the storm, Sandy, and before the very heavy snow storms of last winter. I had no ill affects. The roof is tight with no leaks, and the system is producing electric to cover my total bill. I have a zero electric bill. How can you beat that?: They are a very professional and reliable firm that knows what they are doing. The electrical work was exceptional as well and I highly recommend them.

It went good. The sales guy was very good. He told us what the solar panel is doing; taking some options. They had repeat visits. He answered all the questions. We were pretty impressed. The installation itself was very good. They're professional and did a good job. Overall it was a positive experience.
Description of Work: Sunation Solar Systems installed the solar panel system. We had some issues on one of the components and he came back and in the end he sent me a manufactured device; an engineer random and he's going to fix it.

The installation was extremely professional, thorough and neat. The system is guaranteed for 10 years and the components for 20. I also get annual service at no charge for five years. We had 32 high-efficiency panels installed (a 10kwh system) and our net outlay after rebates and tax credits was just over $19,000. Last year the system actually generated almost 12kwh and LIPA sent us a check for $157! Since we were previously paying LIPA $250-300/month in electric costs, our payback time to recover our net outlay will be about 6-1/2 to 7 years. I spoke with a PSE&G rep this past week to have her explain the "Net Metering Statement" they sent me and I found out I had zero electric costs for several of the past few months. More recently we have had bills but that is not surprising since we are running two central air conditioning systems in our 4,000 square foot house 24/7 from June through August. We also recently replaced our electric range with a propane gas range so that has dropped our electric cost even further. I am seriously considering replacing our electric clothes dryer with a propane appliance as well. The system generation can be viewed at any time online, and that includes a history since it was installed. In addition, the system increases the resale value of our home and we are contributing to the "green' movement, which is important to us. What's not to like about this???

Customer service was great. Workers were great. Punctual,prompt,clean,informative. This was a great decision to chose Sunnation to install my solar panels. I have had the system since 9/2013 and everything is operating exactly as it was explained to me by Sunnation. A real pleasure to deal with. My electric bill has been only $10 for the last 3 months and I have been banking kW each month. A great investment with a great company.

It went exceptionally well, from first contact with the company. A representative came to our home, went over out options. Then they sent out a surveyor to test the amount of sun our roof receives. Upon that answer, we booked for them to do the job. They were honest and told me it wouldn't start right away as they were super busy, but they did give me a time frame and were right on when came time for install. They were here only three days. They were respectful, neat, honest and a pleasure!

Sunation was recommended by a friend who had previously used them to install solar panels. From the first meeting with Quentin to the final system walk through with Mike and Matt, it was a pleasant experience the whole way. They stayed within the quoted timeframes in all aspects and were efficient with providing advanced notice when the start day changed slightly. Mike and Matt were professional and respectful of our home and left the work spaces neat and clean each day before leaving. We would highly recommend Sunation to anyone looking to go green with solar.
