Install process was very smooth, and the post-install support has been great. These guys are quick, professional, and a B corp to boot!

Last fall my wife and I were thinking about going solar. We had four companies come out and give us their sales pitch and Technicians For Sustainability and one other company were the only ones that could talk knowledgeable about how the system works.
We chose TFS because we felt they would do a better job and they were local and were owned by their own employees.
We are extremely happy that we chose them. They put our panels on quickly and efficiently and they have kept in contact to check that everything is working well.(It is.) They made the whole process as easy as possible.
What is more is that our electric bill is out of sight. We were paying $360/month on budget billing with TEP. Our last two bills have been $22 and $19. Wow. I can't believe it is that low. We have a house and guest house with 7 people living here.
I have recommend TFS to my friends and anyone that is interested in solar. You can't beat them.
A number of our neighbors had used TFS and recommended them highly. We were very pleased with the whole process, from initial contact (people answer the phone! you don't get a telephone tree) through survey, installation, and turning the system on. We are very satisfied customers.
TFS installed a solar array on my roof and the experience was as good as one could hope for. The communication with the office was superb; they kept me informed on how the approvals were going through the system. Everyone involved from TFS was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The installation went without a hitch. I would recommend TFS for anyone in Tucson who is considering solar. These people are committed to sustainability and to meeting and surpassing customers' expectations and they are local. The County inspector told me that he has the greatest respect for the fine work TFS does.
Super professional. Very communicative. Good peoples. I loved that when I referred someone, TFS donated $100 on my behalf to a local non profit org of my choice - love the community-mindedness.
We interviewed 3 different companies before deciding on TFS. They were a pleasure to work with from the initial visit through to the system being operational. All of their technicians were extremely professional and knowledgeable. We were also kept informed along the way of everything that was happening even though they did all the work. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for solar. They are a great company with great people!
service was completed on time. Had issues with communication and follow through with paperwork which almost delayed completion. But at the end TFS corrected all issues and pushed for on time completion. If they would have had better communication at the beginning I would have rated them higher. Install team was very professional and did an outstanding job.
From the initial planning visit to install to getting things permitted and up an running, TFS was excellent. Happy to watch our roof produce energy ... actually looking forward to the summer for once!
VERY happy with my solar installation and super impressed with the group of friendly professionals at TFS. They made the whole process seamless, streamlined, easy, doable. Highly recommend you give them a call even if you are only 20% thinking of solar. It is worth your while!
I recently installed a Tesla Powerwall back-up system with a 27KWH capacity. TFS was able to tie this into my existing solar panel array which I installed in 2010; I could not be more pleased with their effort.
TFS did an outstanding job in both planning the entire system, coordinating the installation with TEP, and making absolutely sure everything was up and running flawlessly.
In fact, on the day they installed a new 200 AMP service, my power needed to be off for much of the day. And when it looked like TEP was going to be quite late in restoring power, TFS was prepared with back-up systems to keep the house running. But TFS stayed late on the job, waited for TEP's arrival to restore power, and completed the operation.
If you are considering solar and/or back-up power solutions, look no farther than TFS. And now, even into 2020, while the IRS tax credits are still substantial, this is the perfect window to GO SOLAR!!
We installed solar through TFS almost 7 years ago as a Sun Power lease. The installation was professional. The personnel were easy to work with. The system mounts, equipment, panels, inverter have lasted through the heat, rain, snow and high winds. The panels have functioned "better than expected" to this day. Love the low utility costs. The relationship with TFS has lasted as well. We hear from TFS every so often and they always answer questions. We still report no problems!!
TFS provides wonderful service by communicating quickly and clearly. The staff did a great job managing my expectations and the whole process went incredibly smoothly, especially given the complicated nature of the project. I wholeheartedly encourage you to work with TFS for your solar projects. We had a solar PV system put in to meet all our demands on an annual basis with a grid tied system.
We had TFS install our solar electric system a little bit over a year ago. We chose them based on multiple recommendations from friends and neighbors, and we weren't disappointed. The estimator was clear about expectations and where the system would be installed. And the install itself was completed ahead of schedule.
Now that we've had the system a bit over a year, I will say that it does what we'd hoped. Except for certain winter months, we have only a metering charge on our electric bill. (Since we have electric heat, and winter days are shorter, we knew that we might get small bills during winter, and we did this past winter.)
We did check with several other companies prior to going ahead with TFS. TFS's price was competitive, and we felt much more comfortable with their reputation versus the other companies we talked with. We highly recommend TFS for solar electric systems.
Job well done. They talked me through the whole process and quickly and comprehensively answered all the questions I had. They took care of everything and there was great communication throughout the process, too. Really took all the complexity out of the process. Then, when the second progress payment was due, I was out of the country for a few weeks and couldn't immediately send a check. According to the contract they wouldn't have continued with the work till I paid but after explaining the situation they continued anyway without any more questions (I really didn't expect or even ask them to). After the installation it took only a few days to have the inspection done (they took care of this, too) and have the system up and running. My neighbor had Solar installed last month from a different company (against my recommendation) and they had to wait almost a month for the inspection. After everything was complete, they checked back a few times to see if I had any problems (I didn't). I had noticed a few minor air pockets under the coating they had put around the stands of the panels, nothing serious and I wouldn't even have mentioned it, but as they asked, I pointed it out. They came out to fix those and in the process completed some coating on a different part of the roof where I had done some unrelated work but hadn't been able to finish, yet. Oh, and the online monitoring is way more interesting to watch than it's supposed to be!
My husband and I have lived in several houses over the years, and have implemented many improvements to each and every one of them. Therefore, we have dealt with a wide variety of contractors as well. The employees at TFS are some of the most engaged, educated and honest workers we have ever encountered. They showed up on time, with smiles on their faces, and with the energy and know-how to install our PV solar energy system in a very timely manner. They took the time to answer our questions and to thoroughly explain our new system. We are very pleased and highly recommend them!
Before contacting any of the various solar companies in the Tucson area I did some research into which solar panels are the most efficient, perform the best in high temperature, and have the best warranties. I then found out that Technicians for Sustainability (TFS) was using solar panels from LG whose solar panels are tops in all three categories I researched. That moved TFS to the top of my list of solar panel installers to consider.
I recommend TFS to anyone considering a PV system in the greater Tucson area. From coming to my home to assess my needs through the bid and final installation, everyone with whom I interacted at TFS was top notch. I am very happy with my new system and enjoy using the monitoring software that TFS provided. It s great to see how much my LG panels are producing each day and how I am lowering my Trico electric bill each month.
I have had my system for a little more than a year. Installation was very professional. The system has worked very well since. We have just had a yearly check up that was thorough. I could not be more pleased with the entire experience and my solar system.
In 2016 I decided to go solar. Called a few companies, got a few quotes.
TFS hands down offered the best equipment for my needs and the best overall service. That being said, they were also the most affordable. From the time I called them to the moment my system went live; Brian and the team at TFS were on time, friendly and responsive. They completed the installation on time and in a neat professional manner. Wether you re buying or leasing, TFS is the way to go. I have absolutely zero regrets going solar with TFS.
We are very satisfied with TFS and our new solar array. They provided a clear and detailed proposal and then installed it quickly taking care of all the details, especially the permits and power company signoffs.
Our experience with TFS has been great, from meeting with the sales representative to the trainer of our equipment. Everyone has been very friendly and knowledgeable. The work was done when predicted and done neatly. We really are happy with our whole process. Now it's fun to watch how much our roof is working for us.
The contract was very easy to understand. The installation work was clean. We haven't had any problems with our system. We got the solar tax break documented in the contract. We couldn't be happier.
TFS is a great choice for solar installations. They are very professional, responsive and quality oriented. We have done two projects with TFS and are very pleased with the results.
When we decided that it was at last time to go solar, our first stop was the internet. During our exploration of various websites, we were struck by the clear commitment TFS employees share for sustainability and community involvement. Naturally, we contacted several companies for information and quotes, but we felt most confident about our choice to purchase solar after meeting with our TFS representative. Not only did he take the time to thoroughly educate us about photovoltaic systems and answer all of our questions, but his knowledge of all aspects of the process of going solar convinced us that TFS knows its business. In the end, while the competitive pricing made TFS a top candidate, what mattered most to us was choosing a local, mission-driven company whose members live into the values we, ourselves, strive to achieve as we look to lessen our impact on the environment we treasure. And we were not disappointed! Everyone at TFS is friendly, responsive, helpful, and competent. Our PV system was installed within weeks of placing our order, and while it took forever for the power company to do their part, TFS helped us navigate the process until our switch-over. We are operating, as promised, at net-zero! Thank you Technicians For Sustainability!!
TFS was prompt, on time, and on budget. Everything was explained up front so there were no surprises, and they even helped us learn about available tax credits we could take advantage of. They took care of everything with Tucson Electric Power and made things as painless as possible getting our utilities switched over. They are friendly, and easily reachable by phone. Highly recommend.
Excellent overall products and services. TFS knows solar and how to engage customers. I m very happy with the whole process - proposal, installation and service.
Now I m part of the solution!
TFS did a great job on my solar system. The staff listened to my requests and followed through on the project. It was installed in a professional manner and on schedule. Both the materials and workmanship were top notch.
I've had two sets of panels installed on my house. In 2009 I interviewed Sun Power of AZ and TFS. I thought they were both well qualified, but ended up going with the smaller company (Sun Power) to help the "littler" guy. I believe Sun Power did a fine job and have had no issues to date with their equipment or installation.
In 2013 I decided to add 10 more panels to bring my net yearly use to approximately zero. I still wanted to stay local to benefit Tucson and to use a company that used installers that worked just for them. I went with TFS the second time. I couldn't be happier with the entire scope of the TFS job. They were courteous, communicated well, showed up on time, did exactly what was agreed upon and installed a professional looking system. After the job was finished I felt that TFS had given me a quality installation at a fair price. Despite the fact that they continuously monitor the performance of my system (it's not a leased system, so I'm not sure they need to do this), they've checked in on me yearly to see if I had any issues.
Additional point: During the TFS initial site inspection, the estimator quickly noted that a few of the Sun Power panels probably shaded a small portion of 6 other panels in late December. I told him he was correct. I liked the fact that this bugged him, and he wanted to correct it. Although I can't remember what he added to the cost to prevent the shading, I remember it being a minor amount. That small adjustment improved the output of my Sun Power panels 50% in late December/early January! I'm not sure other contractors would've cared about another installation or, if asked to correct the situation, would've charged anywhere near what TFS did. TFS is a for profit company, but I certainly get the feeling that is not their number one priority.
Solar City is making a big push around the country to install leased systems at no up-front out-of-pocket cost. Before going with such a large company that contracts out installations, I would ask that you include TFS in your bids. I believe TFS is trying to work with TEP to provide the same sort of lease system that Solar City would.
I've had my second solar system from TFS for about 2 months now. First system has been running for over 10 years with no problems and no leaks on the roof. The new system is larger and has cost half as much and was installed and turned on in record time. TFS must have a good reputation with TEP or are fast with the paperwork, because TEP was out putting in the new Meter in four days. Other people I know at work having their system installed before ours are still waiting for TEP after a month. Their engineering is top notch also. They have had to size the system to take into account future new loads (Electric Cars) and have come out with exactly the right size both times. Finally the employees own the company, do you think that might have something to do with the great service you get from them?
Almost forgot, TFS uses financing from Clean Energy Credit Union, a company that they helped found, and who's rates are unbeatable. Good Luck with your purchase, the time has come for it. Thanks-
Ron W
From the initial visit through the final walk through everything went perfectly! This is a local Tucson company with an honest, knowledgeable, professional staff. We couldn't be happier with our choice and highly recommend TFS if you are going solar!
Technicians for Sustainability was efficient and easy to work with. I would highly recommend this company if you are thinking about installing a solar system to your home. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly and follows up quickly with questions or concerns.
We recently utilized Technicians For Sustainability to install solar panels on our roof and we are thrilled with the decision to work with them. Everyone at TFS was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process. They are an incredibly professional and passionate company and they take great pride in their work. We would highly suggest TFS for anyone who is interested in clean energy solutions and working with them was a pleasure. Thank you TFS!
TFS did a outstanding job on install and the costumer service was great. When people ask me about our solar I give them TFS's number.
I was looking for a good solar provider around my area which came down to 2 choices. TFS or Solar City. After weighing pros and cons, Solar City was just too expensive for my budget lengthening the ROI. What really convinced me though was the principle and vision that TFS is trying to stand by and with all the testimonials on their website it's hard not to trust them.
Everyone from TFS that I have interacted with have been very friendly and professional. The work that they have done has been very wonderful so far. Even the city inspector gave TFS absolute praise in their workmanship.
TFS was terrific. From our first meeting (where they came very, very well prepared) to the final check-throughs, everything was highly professional. And when I had our roofing contractor inspect the roof following the installation, he said it was one of the best installations he had ever seen. Whenever we've had a question, they are fast to respond. First rate operation.
We purchased a grid-tied solar system from them and had a great experience. Professional, easy to deal with, and quality workmanship. It's been at least a couple years now and all is going well with the system. They also stay in touch with their customers and ask how everything is going. Highly recommended company.
Everyone we worked with at TFS was incredibly knowledgeable and pleasant to work with. Having our solar energy system installed couldn't have gone smoother. They handled everything and it was a very painless process. I highly recommend them!
TFS installed our solar system in May 2020. TFS is a highly professional organization. From initial estimates, design changes, and permitting, to installation and activation, they provided accurate and timely communication throughout. Their installation crews were courteous and efficient. It was really refreshing to have such a positive contracting experience. I recommend TFS with no reservations.
They provide professional service and have always made sure our solar water heater is running well. I would highly recommend them.
Technicians For Sustainability (TFS) was the authorized dealer for our recent install of a leased photovoltaic system from SunPower. We found all of TFS's people to be consistently friendly, helpful, professional, and knowledgeable. They clearly take pride in their work, and the quality shows.
We're paying the same long-term rate as folks pay for SolarCity, but we get some of the highest-quality panels on the market instead of commodity Chinese panels and we got to work with a team of motivated people from a local company instead of cookie-cutter installers from a corporate giant.
I would highly recommend TFS to anyone in or near Tucson looking to go solar.
TFS are professionals who really care about the planet's future- not just making a quick buck or commission. We were offered different options and chose the Life Good panels- slightly pricier but with an incredible warranty. TFS personnel are personable and their follow-up and patience unending.
TFS was first rate from the start to the finish. They came out to the house, climbed up on the roof and did a thorough review and then submitted a very complete plan and cost estimate. The plan showed where the panels would be placed, and what would be the cost savings each month. The installation went smoothly and they were always available and prompt to answer my questions and return my calls. Now the system is in place and we are enjoying the minimal monthly bill and the knowledge that we are doing a little bit at least to help the environment.
TFS recently completed our solar installation and I am deeply impressed with the extremely clean and well executed installation. We have the meter by our breaker box and the inverter in the garage, every time I see them I am pleased and reminded of what care and workmanship was put into the installation. VERY happy customer.
Absolutely great experience... great people who definitely walk the walk. So happy.
Love the detailed data monitoring of usage and production
When my family decided to go solar we asked around to learn about other's experiences. Those who had gone with TFS consistently expressed high satisfaction with their install and the customer service. People that had gone with out-of-town companies told us that customer service quickly declined after the purchase agreement was signed. We were convinced that TFS was the best, and our experience with them confirms this. This is a local, mission-driven company that wants to understand its customers' needs and design systems accordingly. We worked directly with a representative throughout the process who gave us a direct cell phone and e-mail to address our questions along the way. Communication was excellent and the installation process was seamless. It's great having the confidence of a local company that is so responsive, and I highly recommend TFS to anyone in Southern Arizona who is looking to reduce carbon footprint and save money on energy bills.
The TFS crew did a great job installing our solar system, very professional and fast. Now that it is installed for about 6 months we are extremely happy with its performance. TFS made the right capacity calculations. We are saving up a lot of KWh in spring to carry us through the summer when the AC is kicking in.
It is great peace of mind knowing that we help saving our earth a little bit everyday. If you want to change the world start in your own
Professional, knowledgeable, reliable, and just overall lovely, genuine people to work with. Every interaction with TFS staff was a great experience--- from the first chat about the proposal, through install, and right up to the final connection to the monitoring app. If you are considering going solar (and I hope all of us who live in sunny places are!), I don't think you could find a better local business to help you take that step.
TFS installed my solar panels over one year ago. I was very satisfied with the installation process and have been very satisfied with my solar panels. I would recommend TFS to anyone asking me about solar.
TFS installed a solar system on our residence. We have been extremely happy with every step of the process.
Each person we ve been in contact with has been friendly, professional, and helpful. The installation was impeccable.
We are loving our solar PV system! It has been busy producing energy and we are currently generating more than we can use.
We really like the SolarEdge monitoring system. We like seeing what the system is producing, our electricity needs, how much we use from the grid and what we are putting on the grid. It's great! Clear and easy to use.
Doing business with TFS was a pleasant experience. From our first contact with Brian through the entire process. Professional, friendly, efficient, great product and best communicators!
Tamarack was great with staying on top of the project and coordinating with our HOA (not necessarily an easy process but he got it done!). He did fabulous with coordinating with the roofing company. We really appreciate his organization and administration skills! He was a pleasure to work with and insured things were on schedule and moved along smoothly.
Any time I had to call the office, the staff was friendly and helpful to get me connected to the right person.
The installation crew...the BEST! They arrived at the time they said they would be there...6:00 AM. What a nice group of guys! The first day they were on the roof along with the roofers...I was wondering how that would go, but both crews got along great and were respectful of each others work, a reflection of the professionalism of each. Even though it was well over 100 degrees on install day. Whew! They were neat, tidy and got down to business.
Jenn has been efficient with billing and notifying us when progress payments were due and when payment had been received.
There is not one negative thing we can say about this project. We truly have enjoyed working with TFS. TFS has assembled a great team and they all work well together, each the best at his job. They definitely receive an EXCELLENT rating from us!
It has been a pleasure working with the TFS team!
I have had my PV system since Feb 2019. Every step of the process was clear and explained as often as needed until I understood what was happening. Everyone is forthright and honest about the how's and why's. The follow up after install is never more than a phone call or email away. I never felt like I was waiting for a response. You invest a significant amount of money in a PV system and TFS delivers the service you would expect on such an investment. Being a local company, and one who is focused not just on the profitability but the sustainability in what they do just adds extra layers of satisfaction. If you think it sounds too good to be true it isn't. This review is written about a year after I first met with Brian to explore my options...its not a honeymoon phase review. If you are thinking about calling them do it, you won't be disappointed.
We had a great experience with TFS, and are now two years in to having our panels on our home. Good pricing, great customer service. We'd work with them again if we have future solar needs.
They were very good, on time and friendly. We are happy not to have an electric bill!
Technicians For Sustainability did superb work installing solar panels on my roof. Their office kept me informed through every step of the process. Their installation team was highly competent and efficient. They answered all my questions and were very pleasant. I highly recommend TFS.
If you are looking for solar this is the place to go! We had them install a new LG 4.38 kW system. The installation went very smoothly in fact they were done in about 6 hours. You do need to keep in mind that at this point the system is not functional. TEP has to come in and add the meters to the system. These monitor the electricity created by the system and the electricity used by the house. Our system creates about 90% of the electricity we use and I can monitor what our system make anytime from my cell phone! Solar is the right thing to do for our environment and our children future! Also Tucson is an awesome place to take advantage of solar!
We had solar installed by Technicians For Sustainability this summer and they were the greatest team to work with. The TFS staff definitely walk the talk and made the installation and education process as easy as possible for us. We've always wanted to use solar to do our part to help the environment. With the information shared with us by TFS, we feel like we know so much more now about why solar is such a good option and we're even happier to have chosen to go the solar route.
The installation group led by Derek were incredible, keeping us informed every step of the way, working out creative ways to install the equipment in the best places, quietly going about their work, always smiling and offering a hello. Just the best group we've had working at our home since we moved to Tucson last year. We were also delighted with the others we worked with directly, Tamarack Little and Mike K. We so appreciated their excellent work and passion for their jobs and solar energy.
We are grateful to have found TFS and look forward to working with them in the future with our current solar system and any future needs. They are a great part of Tucson.
TFS was professional, proactive, and helpful every step of the way. I'm someone who asks way too many questions, and they fielded each and every one happily. Very satisfied; highly recommend!
From design through installation, TFS has outperformed my expectations. Their staff is knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. They met all the timelines and the system is performing exceptions, cranking out the KW's! I would highly recommend TFS if you are considering solar.
TFS installed a system on a solar system on my roof in Tucson AZ. Their cost was extremely reasonable and the installation was done on time and professionally. I enthusiastically recommend this great company!
Our experience with TFS was fantastic! They are the definition of professional. From the initial site visit to turning on the system everything was handled perfectly and we were kept informed throughout the process. They answered all of our questions of which we had a lot. Their workmanship is top notch and was even praised by the city inspector. Their staff even helped after the install to help us resolve some potential issues that came up due to another contractors work. They are a great local Tucson company and are committed to our community. Our system has been up and running a little over five months now and is performing exactly as promised. If you're considering going solar, it's a no-brainer to choose Technicians For Sustainability.
Great experience! A truly professional company! We couldn't be happier with our system!
I had several different solar companies come out to my house. Most of them made claims that were clearly refuted by data I had in my hand (mostly the places that push their lease programs using phony data to make you think purchasing is a bad idea). Only TFS and GeoInnovation gave me numbers that made sense. They were also the only companies that checked out my home's electric to make sure everything was OK. I chose TFS because my research made me lean toward SunPower PV modules, but I would recommend looking into GeoInnovation as well as TFS.
The total time to complete was astoundingly quick. Other companies were saying about 6 months. TFS took a few weeks -- the actual install was a few days. And the workmanship is top notch.
I used TFS's financing option. Other than a couple of quick calls to clarify one or two things, the process couldn't have been easier -- aside from an initial deposit, everything was done by phone and email until AFTER the system was up and running, when all I had to do was go in and sign a few things.
From the initial meeting with TFS to the final signing of the paperwork, the entire process took just a few hours of my time, and my electric bill was basically replaced with a nearly-identical finance payment that will eventually go away and then I'll be enjoying clean energy for zero cost.
We couldn't be more pleased with the information, prompt service, price, and professionalism of TFS. We are proud and thoroughly satisfied with having "gone solar"and completely recommend TFS to any exploring this important addition to your home or business.
Seamless installation, effortless financing. Prior to installation, summer gas bills almost $1,00 per month (gas fired chillers for air-conditioning) along with about $350 in electric bills, Now June - temps around 100 F), $50/month for gas hot water and $20/month electricity. Couldn't be more pleased!
TFS is a very customer friendly company, providing professional, high quality standards and service. Can't beat the bang for the buck!
I highly recommend them.
TFS installed solar panels at our home in April 2020, and we had a very positive experience from beginning to end. They were communicative, responsive and honest. We're glad to have chosen them for our solar project.
Very professional and easy installation process! We highly recommend TFS!!
I received 3 different proposals for solar on our home in Oro Valley. TFS was recommended by Mellgren Homes (best remodeler in Tucson area) and their proposal was 20% cheaper than the most expensive option (largest solar company in U.S.). What I liked most was that TFS offered a choice of two different solar panels which the other companies did not. It took several months to get all of the paperwork done, but TFS took care of it. TFS employees are professional and good to work with always having a positive attitude!
The installation only took two days and is a very clean look; no unsightly cable paths on the outside of our home. After the install it took TEP about a week to install a new meter and to let us know that we could start production. You can download an app or watch the system work online. Since we just bought our home we do not have a good records of use but hope that our 5.0kWh system is correctly sized; we were told that we could add up to 5 more panels as needed without any changes to the inverter. This is good to know IMO.
I would highly recommend TFS to anyone who needs a solar system!
We have found the communication with TFS to be professional, consistent and timely. We were kept informed of all the steps from the beginning conceptual plans to the final installation. Our system is now up and running and producing as promised. As a home owner the installation was easy and there was no debris, waste or anything left behind. It is obvious that TFS looks upon their responsibilities as a mission to help our planet rather than solely a way to make money. I would definitely use them again.
Fantastic process from start to finish. If you live in Tucson and are considering a solar install from any other business, you re mistaken.
Everyone that we dealt with at TFS was VERY professional. They were very understanding and helpful with all our questions. They were quick and efficient in installing. TEP was slow but not TFS. We love the software they gave us to follow what our panels are making every day, etc. We have several friends who didn't go with TFS and are not happy with their software. Ours gives us so much more information than theirs. We strongly would recommend them to everyone. It was a great experience.
Kevin and the TFS gang are top notch. We spoke to several suppliers before having our system installed and TFS stood out for their professionalism. They did not disappoint during installation and have been super prompt to address any questions since.
I am so glad that I had TFS install the solar panels. It was with real pleasure and ease to be able to coordinate the installation of the panels while I was in New Mexico. It was a seamless process. One of my neighbors emailed me that TFS was at work by 7 am and they were impressed too. When I said that I needed a visual set of instructions so the young (age 13) girl who was watching my house could check the operational lights, I was promptly sent a great pdf file with the panel lights highlighted and explained - perfect and great service.
As for the panels themselves - well - last months bill was +6.40 and no $$ due. I am looking at a cloudy sky this morning and am newly aware of the sun in all aspects of my life.
I have already recommended TFS to a couple of friends and expect you to hear from one of them soon.
TFS is a very impressive company and I am more than happy to provide my heartfelt thanks and recommendations.
A year ago we decided we wanted solar for the new house. We looked into several different providers, including Tesla who we were with at our previous home, and we decided on TFS.
Meeting with Brian and his team sold us on them beyond just the actual solar equipment. Each of them was professional, quick to respond to questions and to provide assistance, and very knowledgeable.
One of the elements we liked is they do not come off as a big uninterested company. They are local, focused on the community, and committed to sustainable practices.
The equipment itself is very efficient and effective. We had limited space for installation and they optimized it for our current and future needs. The system is easy to use and the TFS team is available to provide anything we need.
The monitoring app provides excellent data and it is kept up-to-date regardless of OS upgrades.
The system price and paymemt options, as well as the integration with TEP is very affordable, one of the best around.
We have several neighbors who also went with TFS and all of us are very.happy with their product, service, and professionalism. We highly recommend TFS for your solar needs.
Looked at 3 solar companies. TFS pre-sales was by far the best and ran all the traps with TEP before finalizing quote. Knew exactly what was going on. Their price was very competitive and they won the business. TEP slowed the installation by 5 months - but it is to be expected. The installation crew was outstanding, very talented mixture of local guys - super sharp. Post instillation had been great - no problems and the array is performing as expected. No brained 10% return on investment. Should be on your short list of solar installers.
