Reviews

What customers say

Customers praise knowledgeable, courteous staff, and installation accounts mention skilled crews and tidy work areas; one customer also highlighted the crew’s teamwork. One cabin owner says RES first advised them on using existing equipment, then talked through spending options once it proved faulty; another customer appreciated a helpful front-desk employee and access to solar supplies that are hard to find elsewhere.

Phenomenal company! I worked with RES over a period of two months to get the electrical system in the cabin my husband and I had just moved into back to working reliably. Neither of us knew what we needed and only understood the basics of what we had. Melissa, RJ, and co went miles above and beyond what I had even optimistically hoped for in order to understand our current system and needs. They invariably operated in our best interest, giving advice about how to work with our current equipment first then walked us through what the most effective use of our money when it became clear our equipment was faulty. I can't say enough good things about the staff's knowledge, professionalism, and kindness. Their assistance made what could easily have been an expensive, stressful nightmare into a financially manageable, educational experience. Our system works like a dream, but if anything does happen or it just needs expansion RES is the only place I will go.

Lady at the front desk was extremely helpful and attentive even with being busy. If you're building a solar setup this is the place to go, they have almost everything you need that's hard to get in other stores or online.

We were very pleased with the service provided by RES. The office and installation personnel were very professional, courteous and expedient. The installation crew was knowledgeable, demonstrated excellent workmanship, and kept the work site clear of debris. We highly recommend them to anyone seeking similar services.

Howard and I were so happy to work with RES. Your knowledge Melissa on everything from parts, pieces, the system answered are many questions. Your help on what the crew liked helped us get them set up before they arrived. You listen!!! That is in itself a quality trait that has been lost. Thank you!! You responded back to us so quickly. Dang we aren't used to that anymore!! I also appreciate all your hard work on the contract. It was a win win. We enjoyed Scott, Landon.and Lance. We were so impressed with each of their work ethic, teamwork spirit, and their knowledge was something to see. All three of them were so respectful to each other and to us. WHAT they cleaned up their rooms as much as possible before they left!! They made it so easy on us. We can't say enough good things about this project. We are up and running and life is good. Thanks to each of you! Your boss should be very proud to have all of you on his team. PS: One more thing. Kodi our lab is depressed they they are gone. He lays by the sliding glass doors and keeps watching for them to come back.

We live in Naples Fl and have been RVing six month a year for the past 11 years and have driven over 160,000 miles. The reason for the intro is to qualify us as experienced RVers. In today’s new world it is difficult to find competent., affordable service. We have a new Vanleigh Vilano that we wanted to upgrade to solar. We called a number of RV repair shops on our trip to Alaska. Some had openings six to eight weeks out and others wouldn’t even return our calls. While on the Alaskan Highway we called Renewable Energy Systeums. Fred Groendyke of their Wasilla store took the time to figure out what we needed and scheduled us in so that our trip would be minimally interrupted. Jim Rush, their installer is a very personal knowledgeable guy who goes out of his way to assure that we understood what he was doing. They consulted with Tiffin, the RV manufacture and the manufacture of the inverter to assure us that what was installed would be compatible with our rig and meet all required safety regulations. The end results were amazing. Our first night out without shore power went flawless. Even in the twilight of an Alaskan summer evening the new lithium batteries with two solar panels were able to keep up with our power usage. So glad that we didn’t go the generator route. While the cost for solar verses a generator are comparable the big difference is weight, maintenance cost, fuel and restrictions on generator use in some campgrounds. Almost forgot to mention that as a part of the Congressional, Inflation Reduction Act you are eligible for a 30% Solar Tax Credit. Also ask about their Veterns discount which I appreciated. Thanks Fred and Jim for a very positive experience.
