"The entire Earthlight team did an amazing job on my solar installation, I received a terrific quote from a local vendor who used top of the line panels and inverters! One of the most frustrating parts of any improvement project is not knowing when the contractor/subcontractors will be on site and when will the work be completed this was not a problem with Earthlight! If I could give Jordan and Aaron more than five stars I would they completed the job on time and were very responsive. BTW my Sunpower system is working great and I received my first electric bill last week it was $10 and I banked over 1000 KWH for future use in just my first month, Thanks Earthlight!"
