I had previously given this company a great 5 star review (which i should NOT have given) when they initially installed solar to my house, but honestly this company is horrible and clearly doesn’t care about their customers. I was completely unaware (and so was the service reps of this company) that the power bank systems of the solar panels greatly affect the wifi in our home. What used to be over 200mbps is now 15mbps near the tesla powerwall, meaning a large chunk of our home, and my office, now simply don’t get any internet service. I tried calling them and explaining my issue, and the ini

Pro: cheaper than pge. Con: bad installation team. Failed inspection twice. Conclusion: solar saves money but you might want to use another installer.

The Empower Spartans were the crew who installed my solar (23 panels, 2 batteries, ground wiring, piping, breaker box, etc) for my 2200 square foot home. I was so impressed with their efficiency and precision! This Spartan Crew was professional, courteous and bonded. I would trust them along with their foreman O- ANYTIME within my Home. Thank you Guys!

The crew that installed my solar panels were very courteous, nice, and efficient. They were extremely knowledgeable and answered all my questions. They did an excellent job! Shout out to Jaime, Rolando, and Jorge

We were having our home stucco’d and needed to have our batteries removed. We tried numerous times to reach someone at Empower to try and arrange this without success. We finally happened upon Josh who was able to arrange for service to come out promptly and remove them. We were under a time crunch from our contractor so Josh saved the day for us. We have now reached out again to have the batteries re-installed as our project is complete. Josh was very prompt in responding to our call!!!

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.
24/7 availability
“and scheduled HVAC maintenance. From 24/7 system oversight to seasonal…”
Established
“experience and trusted installations, since 2017. Heating & Air Keep your home…”
Its website also mentions free estimate and licence number, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.
Elsewhere
- It is also reviewed on Yelp. Worth reading before you sign anything: those are a different crowd, and the complaints that reach the Better Business Bureau rarely reach Google.
- It posts on YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

As Google published them when we last read the listing, not a live check. Ring before you drive anywhere.
Who Google shows alongside them
Google’s own “people also viewed” set, in Google’s order. It is Google’s comparison, not ours.

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.

Ordered by how much we can tell you about each, which is not an order of quality. We do not know which of these is better and would not say if we did.
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.
