    We had a great experience working with Anthony on optimizing the amount of both solar panels for daily use and batteries in case of a blackout. He was very responsive to our follow-up questions via text, and we were able to call him when needed. HCI Solar provided turn-key service, so they assisted with permits and plans.

Overall, we are happy with HCI Solar’s great customer service and installation.

    We did our solar in two sessions. First we did 12 panels, then we did another then. We also had to replace our roof.

The 2nd time, they helped with a 0% financing program, which allowed us to pay it off in 18months or so. We have two electric cars, ac, all the electronics you can think of…overall we end up paying pg&e about $1500/

    I reached out to a bunch of solar companies when I was shopping around for a solar system for my home. While they were all helpful, HCl Solar really stood out. Anthony from HCl Solar was the one who went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. Right from the start, he gave me a clear picture of what to expect and was super transparent about the process. After the initial conversation, one of their installers came by to check out my roof and property. Within just two days (exactly when Anthony said he would), he got back to me with quotes, right on schedule. He then took the tim

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 found nothing on a website for this company that states a warranty, a licence or how long it has traded.
  • 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.
