Reviews
Our experience with P V Squared was nothing less than super! They walked us through the process so we understood everything from the beginning and feel good about them being there for us into the future. Simone, our project manager is as knowledgeable as she is patient as we learned what we need to know about our system. Emily, who did the roof work, including carrying the panels up the ladder and putting everything into place is nothing less than impressive. Everyone at P V Squared seemed comfortable in their team work and everything they did just made us happy with our choice to go with them. Highly recommended!
We chose PV Squared to install 16kWh on our barn roof, and they did an excellent job. The process was easy, and everyone from PV Squared was helpful -- the one who came to survey our property and give an estimate, the workers who installed the system, the office people, the office and paperwork people. We couldn't be more pleased with the result, we love the system. It's been about 2 years now, and we've had no problems at all with the system, and will rely on them again if we ever expand to get more panels. We highly recommend PV2. We did get quotes and speak with several other installers. PV2 was not the single cheapest quote, but their price was very competitive and they answered our very detailed questions much better than any others, so we trusted they would do a good job. We also liked that PV2 is a local co-op with a lot of experience over many years. I have a relative who works in the solar business who helped me vet the different companies, and my relative also strongly recommended PV2 over the other companies we were talking with. Even if you decide to go with a different company, solar is great, and you won't regret it. It's good for the environment, and good for your own finances. Our system has FULLY paid for itself after about 18 months. We got the low-interest Mass-Save solar loans plus rebates available in Massachusetts. But with the money we have saved on our electric bill, and the monthly checks we get for net-metering, we were able to fully pay off our loan very quickly, and now it's just pure savings. Our only regret is not getting a bigger system.
I usually dread big projects like this solar, trenching, electrical because of the hassle of it all. But, PV Squared Solar was extremely professional, organized, friendly and easy to deal with. I was very impressed with their communication every step of the way. They stayed on top of all of the various projects and never failed to keep me informed. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this company and their crew. FYI, I waited two years to write this review and have zero regrets switching to solar and choosing PV Squared to do the job. Highly recommended.
Their service has been lacking post-install. They sold a data reporting package that became obsolete a couple years after install and no longer functions. They wanted to charge 4x market rate to move the panels during a roof replacement.
PV Squared is worker-owned which means that each worker is invested in making the enterprise work. They care. They've been at it for nearly 20 years so they know what they're doing. The staff is professional, proficient and pleasant. PV Squared did our first installation 18 years ago. When the panels, still under warranty, started to become less efficient two years ago, they worked with Panasonic to replace them free of charge. While the PV Squared installation wasn't cheap, but the PV Squared crew is the best!
Up until today I would have told you PV2 was one of the best around. I have recommended them to others and they have bought a solar system based on the satisfaction we have enjoyed with ours, from start to finish. Not so with the failed addition of a Tesla battery. From the incompetence of the initial battery install contract, to their non communication over the very long wait for the battery, not being able to provide the battery, to trying to either back out of the contract or add an additional $9,500 to the initial cost. Not up to par in any way. Extremely frustrating and anger provoking.
AAA+++ customer rating for these folks! They did a fabulous job on our home and we have been reaping the benefits of solar power from Day One. These people are professional, knowledgeable, prompt and a pleasure to deal with. They did such a great job even the utility Rep. who inspected their work as mandated... said they had done THE BEST JOB he had even seen on a home installation. I highly recommend this company.
We had a great experience with PV Squared, start to finish. Each person who helped us was highly knowledgeable, kind and helpful. They took time at each step to answer any of our questions. Communication with them was consistently good. They helped us design the best array for our site, the construction went smoothly, and they supported us on into the phase after they were done. It's been working well. Maybe most interestingly, I've since run into PV Squared workers at a variety of local places, and they've uniformly been really nice. Thank you for a great experience!
PV Squared was fantastic to work with. They responded to every question and were completely responsive throughout the entire application, design and installation process. Their recommendations for size of system and estimated payback analysis were right on target. Every staff member we interacted with was courteous, professional and knowledgeable. We have not paid an electric bill since installing the system and have a large credit balance despite using the system to power up air source heat pumps which provide most of our heating and cooling. This now allows us the option of purchasing an electric vehicle which will be run by the sun. Best of all, we are preserving the climate for future generations and supporting a socially responsible worker owned cooperative. Going with PV Squared is a win win choice!
PV2 installed my rooftop solar panels at the end of 2014. I chose them because I wanted a local company to install my solar system, they were highly recommended by people who had worked with them, and their representative was knowledgeable and easy to work with. The installation process went smoothly and I haven't had any problems with the panels in the last 4 years. I highly recommend them. In fact, I'm waiting for solar batteries to become sufficiently efficient and economical to have PV2 install them.
