My sales representative, Anna Werner, has provided me with detailed information about my system and has been responsive to my questions. The installation crew was punctual and professional in their approach to the job. My system is now up and running in a three month time frame from beginning to end. I look forward to an ongoing relationship in the years to come.

Our experience with Affordable Solar was extremely positive. Anna and the sales team were prompt, responsive to questions, and clear with their communication. Install team was friendly, efficient and attentive to onsite idiosyncrasies. Paperwork, inspections and permitting were completed efficiently and in a timely fashion--all within estimated time frames. We're excited to have our system up and running. Thanks to the Affordable Solar Team!

We had our system installed just over a year ago. so, we've generated all our own power for just over a year now. the system design process (and hoa approval) was all handled in the background and went off without a hitch. the system cost was a bit more than other vendors, but we liked the non-pushy salesperson, and the system gave us a bit of room to grow. we also got a referral for bird (pigeon) control so we don't accumulate pigeon droppings under our panels.
they also handled all the permits, paperwork, tax details, etc. all we had to do was sit back and watch it materialize.

Affordable Solar did a great job getting us the solar we wanted. First electric bill already came in and it’s just the connection fee! Solar covered all of our energy needs. Annie did great as our project manager and Troy did a great job as our project planner and consultant.

Positive: Responsiveness
I worked with Anna Werner and was very pleased with the entire experience. From start to finish, all the steps were communicated clearly, they provided all the necessary paperwork in an organized and timely fashion, and were quick to replace the few clay tiles on the roof that were damaged during the install.

Affordable Solar was very easy to work with. They were recommend to me by a friend and we did some other research to make our decision and I am glad we did! When we called Anna Werner helped us out and was very responsive and helpful throughout the whole process. Anna was never pushy like some of the other solar companies around and was quick answer any of our questions. I highly recommend using Affordable Solar. Thank you Anna and all of the Affordable Solar team!

Anna was very responsive, well organized, thorough and a pleasure to work with. She readily answered texts and emails( even on the weekend -poor her) and she wasn't pushy as others have been. She had contractors for the electric panel I needed to upgrade and also the Bird Man's info to keep the pigeons from nesting under the panels. I appreciated working with her and I have recommended her and Affordable Solar to others.

Rob Davis and the team at Affordable stood out from the other two companies we looked at for our solar system. The installation team was nothing short of amazing. They installed and tested our system in less than a day. While there were bumps in the road with approvals and inspections the end result is fantastic. My power bill last month which was extremely hot was $89 with on 21 days of solar power being generated. My first full month bill will be a great indication of what we can expect. Thank you Affordable.

Extremely happy with our solar installation and we love the myenlighten/envoy monitoring system that comes with it.

Michelle and Kelsey were great. We ran into a small snag because of PNM which delayed the installation by about a month but affordable solar was diligent in getting the project back on track and accommodating us in scheduling the many inspections that needed to take place. We were under a time constraint in getting the system up and running by the end of December for tax purposes but they did it. Its great to see our electric bills so low now.

Called twice in 24 hours and no response despite a message that says they will call back in 2 business hours = not confidence inspiring!

I am very pleased with my residential solar installation by Affordable Solar, Inc. Since commissioning it 15 months ago, I have had a total of less than $50 in electric bills! AND, I have received more than that in refunds from the electric utility. The system began paying for itself in savings almost immediately!

Our installer for a residential 3.2kW solar power system (18 panels and 8 batteries) in Houston chose Xantrex equipment and sourced components from Affordable Solar. We were so impressed with the level of customer service and support provided by telephone, e-mail and overnight mail! We need more stars to rate how grateful we are for their responsiveness and attention to detail. Kudos to Derek Fannin and Taslima Khandaker at Affordable Solar!

Affordable Solar installed a 6000 watt system on our flat roof. The sales person let us know to expect a 4 to 6 week permitting process. Once the permitting was done, the installation took a day & a half. During the installation, I talked with the electricians who were very friendly & helpful in answering my last minute questions. When the city & PNM inspectors came by I asked them what their experience was with Affordable Solar and they were uniformly complementary. I would definitely recommend them.

From start to finish a great experience! They kept me informed at every step; stayed on budget; provided access to lender assistance, tax forms, etc. System performs beyond expectations and I can monitor it online.
