Reviews frequently mention responsive communication from the sales and project teams and clear explanations of equipment options. Installation quality and cleanliness are recurring positives, with several customers noting smooth permitting and interconnection. Larger clients and homeowners alike cite timely follow-up and helpful monitoring support. A few comments reference wait times tied to utility or scheduling, but satisfaction with the finished systems remains strong.

In the summer of 2024, we were looking to get solar panels installed on our roof. After comparing multiple installers and quotes, we decided to chose Pennsylvania Solar Energy mainly for the reasons listed below.

1. They use Canadian Solar panels which is one of the better panel brands. The brand guarantees the performance degradation over 30 years is less than 12%
2. Enphase microinverters were paired with the panels. Enphase has a 25 year warranty and has an app that lets you monitor each panel's production output.
3. Pennsylvania Solar has been around for 25 years. There's no one local that comes close.
4. Their quote was relatively competitive.

Signed contract at the end of August. The system was installed over a couple days spread throughout November and December due to weather delays. System passed inspection and was turned on at the end of January.

Three panels were defective and production started to decline after a few months. I notified Blake and he sent his crew back to replace them. Now my system is running at 100% again.

I'm very happy to have chosen Pennsylvania Solar Company and would recommend them to anyone looking to install solar panels.

When my wife and I were looking for solar companies in the area, I asked my friends at Cooper's Lake Campground as I knew they had a very large section of panels put up several years ago. They immediately recommended Pennsylvania Solar and spoke nothing but good things about them. I am very happy we listened. Blake was polite, up front, easy to communicate with and get ahold of when we had questions. There was a bit of a wait but only due to the power company and permits and whatnot. Once it came time to get the panels up, it was quick and easy and the crew was friendly as well. I would highly recommend Penn Solar to friends and whoever is thinking of going a bit more green.

Wonderful Solar Project south of Waynesburg. They installed 22 panels, Enphase, on the barn roof. Very professional and experienced team. All went smoothly - no problems. Now planning for next set of panels summer 2023.

PA Solar did an outstanding job. Blake & Bill were polite, informative and very easy to work with. They listened to our concerns and implemented them into the design. The installation crew was very easy to work with as well. They had the solar system installed quickly and neatly. We are extremely pleased with the design, the installation and its operation. Follow up by Blake has been outstanding.

We have and will continue to recommend Penn Solar as the solar company that you have to go to.

They installed 234 Canadian Solar panels on our store's roof. They were an absolute pleasure to work with and did an amazing job. We will definitely be a return customer when we expand our solar coverage.
