We are not customers, and based on my wife’s experience with the salesperson going door to door, we never will be. He was insistent that he see our power bills. Even when he was told no, he wouldn’t leave. Then he tried scaring her, slowly approaching the door, saying she’d have to spend $10k for a generator in the next storm if she didn’t get the panels. Then he asked if she lived alone. What in the world does that have to do with solar panels? NOT acceptable, Ion. NOT acceptable. If we were ever thinking about being customers, it wouldn’t happen.

Still a not so great solar company they only warranty the panels 25yrs but not their install or service. Pretty sad that only 2yrs if that and no notification of checking anything in between times to make sure your place is still working properly. Recommend do your research and be careful on and when to get solar panels it not all what it's cracked up to be. Pretty dang frustrating and Recommend someone else. Not satisfied at all. The tax breaks dont do what you think. Be careful with this company they will screw you over. Line and sinker, be careful on your payments they will suck you in. So

I believe I made a mistake using Ion. I’m getting $120 and $150 electricity bills. $250 to have a service technician come out to check my system. 👎 …

Even though the process was long from consultation to site inspection to engineering to permitting to install to county inspection and now just the last step waiting for the meter to be installed and the system to be turned on ION Solar was …

Starting with John and his site review to our first bill from our power utility, the whole experience with ION Solar has been very positive. Thanks

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.
Financing
“ION offers you some of the best financing options available in the solar industry. Our…”
Its website also mentions warranty, free estimate, established, better business bureau and licensed, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.
Elsewhere
- Google also lists this company under junk removal.
- It is also reviewed on Yelp and the Better Business Bureau. 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 X, 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.

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.
