A&R Solar - Seattle, Washington

The system is a 12 kw DC, 11.5 kw AC, with one 13.5kw Tesla Powerwall 3. There are (23) Silfab Prime 430w modules. They also did a main electrical panel swap. The workers did a great job and I am able to monitor the power production from the solar panels using an app on my phone.

A&R Solar just finished a PowerWall 3 installation for me. I needed a service upgrade from 125 AMP to 200, a new power panel, and a Tesla charger in addition to the battery backup. From the very beginning, they were professional and courteous. The installers did a fantastic job of keeping me informed about the process as well as the approach they were going to take. There were a handful of challenges starting with the service upgrade and the power panel installation. The Span panel barely fit in the location the previous panel had been installed. I was very impressed with the level of communication and the quality of the work performed. I would highly suggest giving A&R a shot at your business.

A&R installed my solar system 4 years ago. This year, I produced more energy than I used, meaning I paid nothing (except standard $7.59/month service fee) for electricity. That included charging my plug in hybrid car. The efficiency has not wavered over the four years, and the quality of their choice in materials seems outstanding. It's a great system and I'd highly recommend anyone who wants to help the environment to invest in solar.

I reached out to A&R and met with Meg. She walked us through everything about our solar instillation and what to expect. She made it all very easy to understand!

After we wanted to move forward, going from financing to wiring up the electric and installing the panels, the communication was great. I will recommend anyone looking for solar installations to use A&R!

We installed our system (solar panels and batteries) in 2020 and added more panels in 2021. A&R sales, permitting, and installation staff were great to work with and completed their work when they said they would with no hidden up charges. We had a warranty-covered issue in summer 2024 and they were quick to diagnose the problem and install the replacement part.
I highly recommend A&R Solar.

My wife and I took several months to do our research and determine if solar was a good investment for us, AND just which company would do the best job. We chose A&R solar-- and the results have been stunning. The plan for our house, it's orientation, and the addition of solar panels to our roof was done with exceptional care and workmanship. They also, at my request, installed a new expanded electrical panel to handle a planned change from gas to electric heat and hot water. AND, they installed a Tesla car charger in my garage. All this was done with expert care and efficiency. We now have heat and hot water, in addition to lights supported by our 28 solar panels. The cost was significant, but I'm amazed at the power generation occurring, and we are very happy with the financial results. A&R is a fine company with excellent, caring employees. I couldn't be happier.

I first worked with A&R Solar a little over 9 years ago when they installed a solar panel system on my roof. The whole process went exceedingly well. They gave me a lot of information by phone initially and then in person when they came out to the house. They took a lot of time to educate me and explain the costs and benefits. The workers were prompt and courteous and showed admirable team spirit--they clearly enjoyed working together and doing their part to help our environment. The estimates they made re: productivity of the system were accurate. Between electricity production and tax incentives, we recouped all of our investment over the first 5 years, as they predicted, so it's been all "gravy" since. I have had a couple relatively minor problems with the system over the years (connector coming loose, inverter being recalled) and they have been very responsive in coming out and setting things right. I have subsequently had them install a Powerwall (storage battery) and that's gone well. I enthusiastically recommend A&R.

I have been exploring solar and a battery backup system for the last month, as I have just replaced my roof and now would be the time to do something, ideally before the end of the year. I initially filled out a form through Tesla for a Powerwall + solar, which connected me with A&R as the local installer. I waited for a call/email, and nothing. I've since called, left voicemails, emailed, and filled out A&Rs online form multiple times, and cannot get ahold of anyone here. I've now been waiting for weeks to sign with another solar company that would use a different setup (REC420AA Pure 2 panels, enphase converters, FranklinWH batteries), but have been holding out in hopes that I could at least talk to someone at A&R about a Tesla system.

And then it hit me today - If I'm having this much trouble getting ahold of them to spend $75k, how much trouble am I going to have when I need support or warranty work fixed. Go elsewhere. You might save yourself some major headaches down the road.
