    I get AT LEAST 3 to 5 calls per day, some times as early as 5:00 am from solicitors for "American Solar". I see that I am not alone with this complaint and the "company" response is exactly the same every time...it's not us. Well company owner(2), you need to do something like contacting the FTC, FBI, etc to have action taken...this is not helping you company (if) you are even a real company!!!

    I am on the national Do Not Call registry and I am getting continuous robo calls from "Greg" with American Solar. I have not requested information from them, I do not own the home they are soliciting for and continuing to call me over and over from various numbers is a TCPA violation. I don't care if you use a VOIP or if you have someone from out of the country making these calls, being an American company based in the USA means that you're required to comply with the FTC Do Not Call registry. The fact that you are not in compliance means that every time you call from a new number or text me f

    I've got at least one call a day from this company for months. Don't do business with them. I've asked to be taken off their call list to no avail.

    I had quotes and info for adding solar panels from American Solar and Sunrun. Jason at American Solar was the most knowledgeable person on solar I've ever dealt with. And honest. He analyzed all my current solar and PGE usage in detail; it could be done, but he suggested I don't add and explained how and why it would not be worth doing. Sunrun meanwhile did little analysis but strongly suggested I go ahead with their proposal. When I pointed out to them the analysis and reasoning not to by Jason, they weakly argued, then said they totally understand if it does not make sense for me. [and then

    Honest, fair priced, family owned solar company with experienced techinicans and reliable service personnel. American Solar is based in Marin County, less than 15 miles away from San Francisco, CA. They donate panels to non-profit agencies which you don't see often in this industry. Remarkable work! Call them for an estimate.

    Revising my one-star review in response to the owner's reply to my original comment. Anyone that attentive is clearly paying attention and deserves a fair shake. And as someone who recent invested in solar on my own home in the PNW (not in the Bay area, sorry!) I can confidently say that it's well worth the investment in both the environment and your wallet. Utilities are always going to go up, but the cost of your panels won't!

Topics Google derives from the review text, with how often each appears. A frequent topic is not a good one: “price” turns up in praise and in complaints alike.

What the company says about itself

Taken from its own website. We have not checked any of it, and a sentence on a website is not evidence.

    Its website also mentions family owned and licence number, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.

    The ones without a link have no page here, either because Google does not categorise them as solar businesses or because we could not match the name to a listing with confidence.

    What we don't know

    • The date above is the newest review we hold, which is not necessarily the newest that exists — we hold a large share of Google's reviews, not all of them.
    • We do not verify licences, insurance or bonding. Nothing here has been checked against a state licensing board.
    • We cannot tell you what an installation costs, and we hold nothing about the equipment they fit.

    Something wrong here? Tell us and a person will read it.
