Insight Energy Systems - Insight Solar

Insight Energy Systems is a fantastic solar company and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to go solar. I have considered going solar for some time, but the phone calls and door-to-door tactics of other solar companies kept me from going further than consideration, but connecting with Insight solved all of those problems I had with other installers. Eric at Insight makes sure that the customer has all the information they need to make an informed decision.

I highly recommend Insight Solar to anyone considering solar energy for their home. They’ve earned my trust, and I’m very pleased with their work.

I had the pleasure of working with Eric and his team for the design and installation of solar panels on my home, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their service. From start to finish, the entire team was incredibly professional, efficient, responsive and friendly. They took the time to thoroughly explain the process, answer all of my questions, and work with me to customize a solar solution that perfectly fit my needs. Their technicians were not only knowledgeable but also clearly cared about doing a great job and ensuring I was completely satisfied with every detail.

What most stood out for me was that they truly care about delivering high-quality work and making sure their clients are happy - not just with the installation but on an ongoing basis.

We began the search for a second set of solar panels because our first set, from Vivint originally but now Sunrun, weren’t producing enough to cover much of our electric bill if any. Very disappointing. Sunrun came out and that experience was also disappointing so I began to search for a local company and came across Insight Solar. Eric helped us with every step of the process and it was effortless. The installers were great and I was informed of everything that was happening by them
and also by the people in the office. Stephanie and Kate were great with keeping me informed of the last steps and Stephanie walked me step by step how to turn on the panels. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who is interested in solar.

We became interested in solar after seeing generic advertisements online. My husband filled out some sort of questionnaire online and soon, we were contacted by Adam from Insight Solar.

We set up a meeting, got all the information, and began coming up with questions to follow up on. I was VERY skeptical of the whole process. I have heard horror stories about solar contracts and people owing thousands of dollars on top of what they should. I asked Adam MANY questions, did my own independent research, asked family and friends for advice, and finally, somewhat reluctantly (because I was still super nervous) agreed to move forward with the process.

We decided to have the roof redone prior to to the panels being put on (but it was all part of the process and the whole thing was managed by Insight, so the costs were lumped in too...meaning the tax return covered the roof too...). I called many roofers to get quotes outside of the solar deal, asked the roofers about pros and cons of solar and priced things out separately. I also got completely separate solar quotes from different companies.

Here are some important take aways from my whole experience.

1. Roofers had nothing but positive things to say about solar. If done correctly, your roof is not negatively impacted by solar panels.

2. Lumping the roof in with the solar meant for the 26% tax credit to account for the cost of the new roof too!

3. Insight not only had the best process, materials, support, and prices, they completely compared my other quotes and went through every bit of information from other companies to compare to their own. In the end, the other company seemed cheaper, but the product was of much lower quality and the interest rate was MUCH higher, so in the end, I would have paid a lot more. Insight got me an interest rate of 1% through the bank they work with.

4. Adam, Leah, and others from Insight were extremely patient with me, all my insecurities, questions, hesitations, and saw the project through from beginning to end...and even continue to follow up with me to ensure my continued happiness.

5. We signed all papers by the end of October and the whole project (roof and panels) was done by December, turned on by January, and I've had a $0 electric bill since February. I even get a small monthly check FROM National Grid. Even this summer, sometimes running 3 air conditioners all night a few times. The whole process, from beginning to end, despite starting in Winter and during COVID, went extremely quickly and smoothly. Insight handled everything with the roofers, the town, the permits...everything!

6. I would HIGHLY recommend Insight Solar if you would like to find out more information about beginning your journey with solar!
