One solar panel is not producing the same amount of energy as the rest. It is producing less than 50%. I have been told it is "noise" and would cost me approximately $600 to repair so I would get the accurate information.Business response

I am rejecting this response because: I was told the microinverter would be replaced. ****** could not find the defective microinvertor. The app showed it was still faulty (see attached). He and his supervisor were to come out this morning to correct the problem. I spoke with ******** this morning and she informed me that the system is working properly now. It must have been a pinched wire but admitted it was a guess.
Sincerely,

The microinverter is working properly, it just has delayed reporting. By the end of each day the micro's reporting catches up and the production is normal. There's not an underproduction issue. We can take a look at it again and see if it's possible to replace it under warranty. Due to the product still operating, it may or may not be approved.Customer response
07/30/2024
Complaint: 22019110
I am rejecting this response because:While I understand the response and would prefer to have it replaced under warranty. Since all of the other microinverters are reporting timely and only this is not, I still consider this an issue that should be resolved.
The delay in reporting was explained to me yesterday by ********. She stated one of the technicians was going to research it and get back with me. No one ever did.

Efficient Home Services (EHS) of Fl installed solar panels in April 2021 at my house which have never worked since and efforts to get EHS to come fix them have proved fruitless as they either don't answer the calls or if they do answer they falsify a date saying they will come but never show up. The latest feedback I got from them is their claim that went out of business in ** and gave over the business to Sun Services, but upon contacting the said company, they were never made aware of this arrangement by EHS. *********** did send me an invoice of the things that they saw need to be fixed and upon forwarding it over to EHS, they have not been willing to pay to bring the system working condition. I keep making monthly payments of $162 towards the $34 0000 solar loan to Mosaic through which EHS facilitated the loan, regardless of the panels not working as promised.Business response

This customer's solar system is operational, however, due to the customer contacting legal assistance, we can no longer discuss this case on a public platform.

I finally received a response from EHS. Apparently, I have to pay for repairs that are under warrany and all work was conditional on my removing a 1 star review on this site. I just want the sytem to perform as promised, but apparently that is too much to ask.Business response

The customer received an email from the manufacturer Solar Edge because the 3g towers went out of service. This allows for remote communication to the smart app monitoring. Solar Edge has stopped using 3g network and has converted to 5g network which requires an upgrade to the customer's current system that is not covered by warranty. Because of the older inverter type the customer has, it's not possible to upgrade the modem with a cell kit without a newer inverter. If the customer would like remote communications to work again on his current inverter, installing an ethernet line in his home to physically connect to the system would be the only viable option. This typically costs $450 for EHS to install but we are offering the customer a discount price at $250 to complete this work. Otherwise the customer will need to wait until his current operating inverter needs to be replaced. When that inverter is up for warranty and is submitted for replacement, the customer will receive a brand new 5g cell kit covered under warranty from the manufacturer SolarEdge which will come standard with the new inverter. Solar Edge won't approve a new inverter as long as his current inverter is still operational.Customer response

Complaint: 21867593
I am rejecting this response because: Per the Solar edge attatchment already enclosed, my production has dropped off in excess of 70%. Communications does not explain a 70% drop in production. FIX the system or refund my payment! I am sick of getting the runaround on this system and repeated refusals to do ANYTHING to correct the lower production from the ORIGINAL agreement let alone this current and I might add, ONGOING issue since June of 2022. It is now July of 2024. If necessary I am prepared to take additional action.

We have explained that the monitoring application is not reporting properly due to the cell kit modem needing to be replaced. We have asked previously that you send us your electric bills to analyze the system production on your electricity bills but you have not sent us anything we can review. Please send us your last 12 months of itemized electricity bills to **************** for our review. You may also include a description of how you determined a 70% reduction in production. Thank you for your support, and we look forward to assisting you.Customer response

Complaint: 21867593
I am rejecting this response because: The system reporting is part of the system. I have sent all of the system reports. You have now suddenly claimed you require 1 Full year of my electricity bills?!?!?! You are out of your minds. You are trying to use impossible to comply demands to prevent you from meeting your responsibilities. You didn't need 1 year of detailed elctricity bills before the system was installed, so this "request" has nothing with you which can compare it! The Solar edge system is reporting. It is reporting a dramatic decrease in production. Why are you trying to deny this? REPAIR the system!!

On April 25, 2023, I was approached by a sales representative from GoEHS, about installing solar panels. Initially skeptical, the sales representative convinced me with promises of halving my bill and producing 100-125% more electricity than I was consuming. He even mentioned the possibility of selling excess electricity back to FPL. After some calculations, he assured me that the panels would overproduce by 25%. He offered a payment plan of $177.74 for the first year, then $280 onwards - not half of my FPL bill, but still a 10% reduction.Despite my initial hesitation, I was swayed by the environmental benefits and sales representative assurances on the iPad that these panels would fully cover my electricity needs. Additionally, the first two months were supposed to be paid by EHS. This sounded like a good deal, so I signed up.However, things quickly went downhill. My electricity bills remained high, and the financing company contacted me for missing the first two payments, which EHS was supposed to cover. After numerous emails and conversations with upper management, I had to pay these myself and wait for a refund.Worse yet, my electricity bills have skyrocketed since the installation, even in winter when my AC usage is minimal. My Recent 5 bills have been of $233, $247, $352, $333, $339 , PLUS the $280 I HAVE TO Pay the service finance company a significant increase from my previous FPL bills.Business response

The sales representative and the homeowner agreed on the amount of production that the system would perform the day the homeowner made the purchase. This amount is written in the Energy Production Guarantee and signed by both the customer and sales representative. There are no issues with the solar system's performance, and the system is producing the amount guaranteed in the Energy Production Form.Customer response
07/21/2024
Complaint: 21854672
I am rejecting this response because:Dear Mr. ****,
Disputed Agreement Terms:I did not agree upon the amount of energy that the company claims I agreed to. The salesperson explicitly stated that the solar panels would cover 100% of the electricity consumption for my property. I was never informed, nor would I have agreed, to pay substantially more than my current expenses with FPL. My primary goal was to save money, not to incur additional costs.
Lack of Physical Contract:Throughout this process, I was never provided with a physical contract to review and sign. All transactions and agreements were conducted digitally. The salesperson only showed me the part of the agreement stating that 100% of my electricity consumption would be covered by the solar panels. At no point were specific numbers or detailed financial implications shared with me.
This misrepresentation has led to significant financial strain and frustration, as the current charges far exceed my previous payments to FPL. I am seeking resolution to this matter and a review of the agreement terms that were misrepresented to me.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Each customer receives a copy of the agreement via email through docusign. The point of having a written contract is so the customer can review the terms and conditions before signing. Our contracts are very simple to read and straight to the point. Many parts are highlighted so that they are not missed. Certain parts of the contract are pulled out and included in a separate page so that the important information is not overlooked. Once the document is signed, a copy of the document is automatically sent to the customer's personal email. We cannot control the fact that the customer chose to sign a contract without reading it in its entirety. We have no proof the salesman explained it as the customer has described, or if the customer was confused as to what she was purchasing, we do not know. This is the reason why we have a written contract. The customer has the opportunity to read the contract, and not move forward with the entire project until that contract was read. There is plenty of time to cancel before installation occurs. EHS customer service is happy to send our clients a copy of the contract at any time. The home office also contacts the customer before starting any work, to complete a Welcome Call. All project information is reviewed in the Welcome Call with the homeowner, and the homeowner has the first opportunity to request a copy of the contract if needed or request to pause before moving forward. EHS is not able to honor the request of reimbursing the entire solar system due to the customer not reading the contractual agreement.Customer response
07/23/2024
Complaint: 21854672
I am rejecting this response because:
Firstly, I must clarify that I never received the actual contract via email through DocuSign as stated. The only time I was able to review the contract was after receiving unexpectedly high bills and subsequently contacting the company to understand the situation. It was at this point that I first saw the terms and numbers associated with the agreement.
Your email suggests that customers have ample opportunity to review and understand the contract before proceeding. However, in my case, this opportunity was not provided. The Welcome Call and other measures mentioned did not adequately address or highlight the crucial financial details that I only discovered after the billing issues arose.
Given this significant discrepancy, I believe there has been a fundamental failure in ensuring that I, as a customer,was fully informed and aware of the contract terms before proceeding. Therefore, I respectfully request a reconsideration of the decision regarding the reimbursement of the solar system. It is essential to resolve this matter in a way that maintains trust and satisfaction.
Thank you for your attention and understanding. I look forward to your prompt response to resolve this issue.Initial Complaint

Solar productivity on my solar panels has been down since April 1, 2024. I was not aware because I did not get an email or text stating that the system was down like I am supposed to. I called and was set an appt to have the system serviced. No one ever showed up. I called a secund time and was set an appt for service. Again, no one ever showed up. I called a third time. This time to enphase who was helpful in trying to find out the issue and contact EHS. He stated he tried to call them numerous times with no answer. We live in Florida and the weather here is extremely hot. We could have been banking tons of energy from the sun instead we are paying$389 electric bills PLUS the payment on the solar. The next step is a lawyer.Business response

The notification that you're talking about is something that comes from the manufacturer and not EHS, the installation company. You will need to have Enphase correct that issue on their side. We've had to replace your combiner box and wires in the disconnect, in the past. If you are still having issues we are happy to send a service technician to your home on 6/25/2024.

We do not include CT meters in deals unless specifically asked, which no notes were made at anytime about it. The app shows production only and this is what was represented to the customer. The free battery ad was for people who had not previously spoken with EHS and not advertised to homeowners who were on the EnergySage platform like this homeowner. This ad was created at a later date. No where in the contract does it mention anything of either one of these items. The install and production of the panels are working just great like the contract and rep stated it would. Unfortunately we can not award a reimbursement for items not included in the sale.Customer response
06/01/2024
Complaint: 21711726
I am rejecting this response because:I reject the response because after waiting 3 weeks for EHS to respond to BBB with my complaint, not only were all the issues addressed, the issues that were addressed are not how things happened.
1. I contacted EHS and spoke to ************************* in January or early February 2024. I never went through EnergySage to connect with EHS. I called EHS directly and spoke with ************************* who quoted me over the phone after going over the information on my electric bill.
2. The Tesla battery as advertised prior to me signing a contract. I have a text to *********************** with the advertisement after I discussed this with him on the phone. I saw the ad on 3/6/24 and texted that screenshot to **** on 3/15/24. Both those dates were prior to me signing anything.
3. *********************** (sales rep) ***** ***** (exit interview appointment) both told me the app would show production, usage and export data. This was one of the selling points **** explained. ***** could not show me on my app since he said the data was still processing and Id have to wait a couple hours for it to finish. ***** did show me on his app all the information I would see and production, usage and exporting data was including as well as individual panel production.
4. Several quotes were presented to me where they all stated Silfab panels with a 30 year warranty. Then EHS changed what I agreed to.
5. Several quotes were presented for a 3.2 system which they calculated I needed from my electric bill. After agreeing they said they couldnt install a system that small and it would have to be a 4.8 system but at a higher price as well. Why are you quoting me a 3.2 system if you cant put in a system that small?
6. There were several contracts presented for two reasons; 1. To change the system size and 2. To put in notes I requested. A new quote was done each time **** changed the wording in the notes and to make extra notes. The final quote had 7 notes in it. EHS removed all of them after these were all agreed upon and sent to me.
7. One of the notes included EHS would match all competitors prices for roofing. I contacted **** about a new roof for my house in DeLand. I presented him with a competitors quote which he said he would get back to me on and never did. I called and texted him several times asking if he was going to match the price and I was ignored. We went with the competitor.
8. **** said in order to avoid 50% up front, which I would not do, he has a loan company that does not have any application fees and there is no interest accrued until the system is up and running. As I came to find out this also was not true as EHS got their money when the system was up but NOT running. Another false statement and misleading representation.
9. On 5/3/24 ******** said that ******* would be returning my call within 48 hours. Nearly a month later I still have not heard from him.I tried to upload the allotted 5 uploads but the system says it's either too large or the wrong type of file. I have many texts to **** asking if hes going to price match, asking if hes going to get back to me about the Tesla battery, asking if hes going to return any of my calls. After I filed this complaint with BBB, **** texted me asking me what were my questions. These issues were already spelled out in my complaint but I reiterated several of the issues. Again, there was no response.
Given how I have been put off and ignored, I question how any future services under warranty will be handled, if handled at all.

We apologize that you felt confused during the sales process, but your project did not include a Tesla battery by any means.

I am rejecting this response because: once again, EHS chooses to ignore the complete complaint. I was not confused when reading about the Tesla Battery.

Customer's desired settlement is stated as - "They quoted me for 8 panels as that is what my usage required. Then after several quotes written out to me refused to do that system. I want a refund of the difference between the 8 and 12 panel quotes. This will also help compensate that they did not put in the Silfab panels as I was quoted for all along." EHS did not refuse to offer an 8 panel system. It was agreed upon between the buyer and seller to install a 12 panel QCell system. The contract was signed and the project moved forward after the contract was signed and our customer service staff completed a Welcome Call with the homeowner to go over the project details. There was never any batteries or consumption meter included in this project's details. Once a contract is signed and work is commenced, that is the final agreement. According to this customer's desired settlement of wanting a refund for the difference of four panels that were signed and purchased by her, we will not offer a refund for this material that is currently installed on her home. The contract clearly states QCell panels. These panels were discussed at time of sale, written in contract, signed contract by homeowner and sales rep, confirmed with homeowner in the Welcome Call, brought onsite during installation day with homeowner, and proceeded to be installed on the roof of the home which the homeowner allowed access to. She owns this system, and there are no refunds according to the contractual agreement. Unfortunately, we cannot honor the request. However, we are more than happy to offer her a discount price of the ** meters installation if this will help resolve her issue.Customer response

Complaint: 21711726
I am rejecting this response because:EHS did refuse to put in the 8 panel system. It was only agreed to do 12 panels because after I agreed on the 8 silfab panels, **** said he was told they cant put in a system that small. It was NOT agreed between the buyer and seller to install a 12 panel QCell system. ***** was never in any of the contract drafts because I made it clear I wanted the Silfab panels that had a 30 year warranty. The details discussed were only about the Enphase app showing production, usage and amount exported which I was told I would see after a few hours when the download completed. Prior to Exit Meeting, **** also told me I would be able to see on the app the production, usage and exported amounts. EHS advertised the Tesla Battery on Facebook. I sent **** on 3/15/24 and ******* the screen shots I took of the advertisement. Again, the consumption meter was explained to me by **** and at the exit meeting. The contracts clearly states Silfab panels. Every drafted contract stated ****** and there were notes typed in by ***********************. You obviously did a bait and switch. The only panels discussed and in the contracts was Silfab. If the sales rep discussed QCell then why did all his contracts state Silfab? Have you looked at all the contracts?
Why was there a voided contract emailed to me?
Why was I not given the docusign contract signed instead of an uploaded paper you changed?
I have no idea what the Welcome Call is.
The delivery of the equipment was not addressed with me. The only thing discussed was where he was going to put the equipment that nobody told me was being delivered that day. When the installation happened, again they did not talk with me other than they were putting the equipment up.
Considering the ** meter is a $50 retail part through Enphase and also on Amazon and I was told by **** and at the exit meeting I would be able to see usage, production and export kwh, I would think you would stand behind what your employees told me and put it in at no additional costs. Saying you will offer a discount and stating what that discount is sounds good, but says nothing. Telling me it cost $500 for a $50 part is less than scrupulous as was changing the brand of the solar panels and not returning calls or addressing all the issues I raised in this complaint.
If I supposedly agreed to the QCell panels and not the Silfab, why did *********************** email me on 4/29/2024 the actual contract I agreed to stating Silfab panels and several notes in the note section? I do believe the one who was confused was EHS.
Why did *********************** void EHS Solar/Roofing Document pack that he emailed to me on March 15, 2024 via DocuSign?
Where is the DocuSign signed contract? All the DocuSign contracts sent to me state Silfab panels and there were several notes. Was that the voided document?
Why havent you addressed matching the roofing price I presented to ***********************? Instead he just stopped communicating with me; ignoring my calls and texts.
Why did nobody at EHS call me back after I contacted you several times about not hearing back from **** or *******?
Why wont you address all the issues and stop cherry picking what you want to address?

We, elected to install solar panels in December 2023 paying $75,000 and promised that it would be installed within 30 days **** The process was horrible from installation until now. They just passed inspections and put us on the grid in mid-March. During this time we have missed several days from work and currently have 1 panel that has not responded since installation and cannot get anyone to respond. We have called emailed with zero to little results in the serval month process. We now are desperate to get this resolved that we posted a review of our experiences on ****** but still haven't heard from anyone.The only thing that went smoothly was the processing of the financing. Everything else was a complete and utter failure. Prior to the day of installation my wife and I prepared the area of install and replaced all of our plumbing vent stacks with brand new varmint proof stacks, as we would not be able to easily access them after the solar array was in place. The vents were to remain accessible per the signed and sealed engineering plans that were provided to us. Install day proved that these people have no idea what they are doing. The installation was a total abomination and hack-job. Zero skills possessed by the installation crew. The crew deviated from the signed and sealed engineering plans without any approval from anyone and cut off the brand-new vent stacks and covered them. The crew missed the roof rafters in multiple locations when anchoring the grid mounts as well. Our first call was to our salesman, that first said the crew should never do that, only to later contradict himself and declare that the install crews are the professionals and know what they are doing. Not really a true statement!!! Our salesman became combative, and I subsequently band him from our property. 3 failed Hillsborough County inspections later and 3 more visits by 3 different crews, a few of whom that stated, "we really hate working there". We found through conversations with the last crew, that most of the other crew members had quit. We repeatedly telephoned the office and sent emails only to get the "we will have to get back with you" response. The ongoing delays aligned perfectly with the arrival of our first billing cycle due date for the solar system financing, resulting in the joy of paying our TECO bill along with our new solar system finance payment!! The array was finally adjusted and EHS ordered the replacement vent stacks but it was another lame job due to the fact that the vent pipes were already cut so short. A week later we went live, with no fanfare, we were shown the app, and one of the panels were not producing. The technician told us it takes time for it to register. 3 more attempts to get that resolved and nothing. Now a month after going live it is still not producing. Called the office today and it just rang, no voicemail, I then mailed our original contact and mail demon replied: Not a valid email address. I could go on and on about how something we were so looking forward to having installed and the going green and doing our part......has totally sucked!!!! Seek out your solar needs elsewhere my follow consumers, this is not a place to do business with.Business response

We were not aware that the homeowner had just replaced all of their plumbing vent stacks with brand new varmint proof stacks, and that they would be so upset with us trimming the piping down to fit the solar array. This is generally always done when the possibility arises, because most people would agree it's aesthetically pleasing to have their solar array all together in one space instead of spaces between the panels. It is allowable to install panels over vent piping as long as they are installed properly to building code. We had no idea it would cause such havoc with our customer. Although the estimated layout of the solar array was to lay solar panels around the piping, on the day of installation, the installers were able to install the panels over the piping, thinking that the homeowner would appreciate the outcome. It's not an issue to revise the engineered plans so show the new layout per the installation. This particular customer did not appreciate this at all, and we found this out the hard way. Of course we tried to go above and beyond to make things right with the customer. We reimbursed the customer for all of the materials they purchased the day before to install their varmint proof stacks. We also sent technicians out a few times to try to add the new varmint guard materials we purchased, to the trimmed stacks. It did not go as smoothly as we expected it to go, because we don't normally do this work, but we got it done. The inspection never failed because of the solar panels causing an issue to the stacks, we needed additional straps on the conduit and a revision. We even contacted the Chief Plumbing inspector who advised there was no issue with the panels covering the vent stacks, as they were installed properly showing correct space for air flow. We explained this to the homeowner and told him we wanted to work with him and make things right. We reimbursed his materials, reinstalled materials for him, and also reimbursed a loan payment. The homeowner stayed home for the inspections, but we told him it wasn't necessary to be there. It was his choice to miss work. Unfortunately, we can not reimburse for his time off work. Regarding the single panel that shows low production, during certain times of the day there is slight shading to the panel. This does not require a service appointment, and the small amount of shading on this single panel wouldn't affect their energy bill.Initial Complaint

My EHS home solar system has not worked properly for over a year. The problem started while the system was still under warranty. And last month my home solar system stopped producing any electricity and is now costing me money as I have to get all electricity from the grid. EHS sent technicians to the house only to say they dont have the parts or the manufacturer is the issue. Ive sent emails requesting updates and have not received a response in over a month. Now I cant even get a phone call through to them.Business response

We greatly apologize for your frustrations. We had to upgrade our phone lines but they are now 100% operational. Your system was also repaired under the warranty. As a friendly reminder, EHS offers free labor, and the parts are covered by the manufacturer's warranty. If the manufacturers parts malfunction, EHS will provide free labor to replace those parts. It is common that technicians need to be onsite to receive approval from the manufacturer to receive those new parts for the system. As a confirmation for you, your system is currently up and running as it should be.Initial Complaint

I received a letter from Zoomlien regarding a bill to EHS from a contractor. The letter states that if EHS does not pay the contractor, then a lien will be placed on my home. EHS has said there is no lien on my home. I know this. They didn't read the letter when I sent it to them. The letter states I should request a written release once the bill has been paid. I have asked several time if the bill has been paid. I either get the run around or no response at all. Their customer service is the second worst I have ever come into contact with in my life, but I have never ran into a company that actually lies to me (one example: *********************** on 2/27 wrote: "This has been taken care of, thank you!"). I have contacted them 4 times since Feb 27th with no response. If they lie and say they have responded, I have written proof they have not.Business response
