    I've never been so upset with a company. I was promised two outdoor cameras, but when the installers came they said there were no cameras on my contract. They said the sales guy makes more money if there's less devices on my contract. What Is this?

    A burglar alarm salesperson knocked on my door and said there was a break in down the street a few days ago. My neighbors and I have lived here for over two decades and there was never a break in. If they come to your door tell them to leave.

    After shopping around for some time for a quality outfit with decent prices, last November we chose Solar Bear to install a solar system in our home. After using it for some months now, I can wholeheartedly recommend this company for your solar needs. They listened to and worked with us to accommodate our specific needs, suggested ways to better the installation, and continue to respond to any questions we have even months later at no additional charge. The crew was courteous, responsive and the work was expedient and done in a very clean manner. Our electric bill has decreased significantly t

    We had Solar Bear install our solar panels in November 2025. (corrected from 2026) They did an awesome job, very professional and looks great. They help with the entire process of accounts with your electric provider. Our electric bills went from over $500 a month (on a budget plan) down to $12.00. of course it will go up again in winter months. This is a family owned business, Dan and his wife actually answer the office phone. I would (and have) highly recommended this company to others.

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

    “the team behind your system $0 down financing options available for qualified homeowners…”
  • Warranty

    “Explore what we do 25 yr Equipment warranty 10 yr Workmanship warranty 3 States…”
  • 24/7 availability

    “smart security — alarms, cameras, and 24/7 monitoring to protect your home and…”
  • Family owned

    “energy Licensed & insured Family-owned & operated In-house installation…”
  • Insured

    “100 % Renewable energy Licensed & insured Family-owned & operated In-house…”
  • Licensed

    “States served 100 % Renewable energy Licensed & insured Family-owned &…”

Its website also mentions free estimate, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.

Elsewhere

  • Google also lists this company under electrical.
  • It is also reviewed on 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, YouTube, LinkedIn, TikTok, Instagram and Facebook. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

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.
