Kevin R.
Lighthouse Solar installed our 12 kW system in just two days. The crew was efficient and respectful of our property. The 25-year workmanship warranty gave us confidence in our investment.
Diana C.
We appreciated the detailed energy analysis Lighthouse provided before we committed. Their production estimate was conservative, and we are actually producing about 10% more than projected. Great company.
Steve H.
Solid installation and good equipment. The team was knowledgeable and answered all our questions. The only hiccup was coordinating the utility interconnection, but Lighthouse handled it.
