Rated 1 out of 5 stars

We had our system installed in November 2017 and the system has been down nearly the entire time. We have produced power only 17 days since install...an astounding 95% failure rate. The installers... See more

System was installed in December 2019, about 3 months after it was supposed to be installed. After that the headaches just got worse. Install failed inspection, needed to have additional work done.... See more

Confused

I found the salesman George kind of confusing. He didn’t really start with information about the solar system. He was more interested in talking about the future possibilities and his work with WAPA and FERC and about establishing a CCA. Really over my head and didn’t get a good feel for the system. In the end I went with another company.

Everything has been installed and it's up and working. I really haven't seen a big difference in my power bill yet but I will keep track. One thing that is still not complete is the lock box that is supposed to be installed on the outside of the fence for access to the meters. Who is supposed to install it so I can contact them?

My system has been installed for over a…

My system has been installed for over a month and yet inoperable because it lacks a meter on the electrical box and some other electrical pieces that are required in the main box to function. All I get are excuses about the parts being on back order and your electrician indicated having all the necessary parts on an earlier date when I was unable to have him work on the problem because other people were working on my home upgrades and needed the electricity to work. Your electrician simply indicated he would return on a later date the following week and that never took place. As of today, I have an inoperable system installed that serves me no benefit. What are you going to do about this problem?

I love my solar set up and the installation company, but the sales end was not a good experience. The sales rep that went to my house was pushy and did not want to give me time to discuss the large purchase with my partner, before committing. They said that time was running out for being able to receive rebates and it would be best to sign up on the spot. The next person that took over my account helped me to roll roofing into my loan, but 4 months after the installation was complete (and I had been making loan payments), the roofer had not been paid. Due to the inability to have anyone from Encor call me back, the owner of Lighthouse Solar actually worked with Encor on my behalf until the issue was handled. Even then, I never received an acknowledgement or apology from Encor.

Prior to the sale Encor provided a wealth of good information, and worked hard to earn my business by offering a highly competitive price. However, after the sale I found I was frustrated by the lack of information about the installation, activation of the system, etc. Had it not been for the installation company stepping in to keep me informed I would have been much in the dark. Pre-sale, I give Encor a 5, but factoring in the post sale I would say they should work on their communication.

Poor communication

Lack of communication. There was confusion regarding financing and who was paying. Also, the sales pitch was that I would never pay an electric bill again. I have yet to see that. Maybe after the winter I will have enough credtis to not pay electric next summer, but that is misleading to say the least

When I say credits, I do not mean tax credits. I mean that over the winter I am supposed to generate more power than I use, thus the electric company will be 'paying' me in a credit balance

Too many no shows to scheduled appointments with you. I chose to go with another solar company and advise others to do the same. Too much dishonesty.

I have been very disappointed with the handling of my solar contract. Promises have not been fulfilled, zero communication, delayed install. I was told if I recommend friends for a solar meeting, I would get a year of free solar (has not been fulfilled). The friend I ended up recommending had his solar installed 2 months before my Install. I would not recommend this company to anyone, as the friend I recomended also is experiencing same communication issues.
