Altair has installed systems on two homes for us. One (10.8 kW) has been running for just over 2 years, the other (8.6 kW) for over one year. Both have performed to expectation, totally covering the power usage of the homes. One of the homes had a tricky intermittent electrical cable problem which Altair dogged until they found and corrected it. The other home required doubling the size of the home's electrical panel and some re-roofing, both of which Altair handled as part of the overall contract. Both homes used LG solar panels and Enphase micro inverters. We especially appreciate the monitoring capability of the Enphase Enlighten system. Altair's owner, Khaled Elsheref, stayed personally involved throughout the process and handled the projects professionally. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Solar is a big commitment. I mean, it lasts longer than some marriages. Also, we were the first in our townhouse community to get solar, and our HOA was sensitive to the process. Doing the research was important. After speaking with a dozen different solar companies, tracking materials/production/warranties/prices, and breaking down each system’s cost per kWh, Altair impressed me the most. Most companies were licensed, had similar warrantees of 25 years (materials, workmanship, penetration), and used similar products. I selected Altair for four reasons: 1. Charlie, the sales rep, was extremely knowledgeable and patient. He gave us information we didn’t even know we needed yet (and we realized later). Several of the other companies I spoke with couldn’t answer my questions, saying, “I’m just the sales guy”. 2. While you should monitor your system regularly, they also monitor your system’s production. Many companies will install a system and leave you on your own. 3. The owner, Khaled, is an electrical engineer and is NABCEP certified. 4. In addition to being licensed and bonded, they put a portion of profits into a fund that will be used to support clients IF they ever go out of business. Once we started working with them, I knew choosing them was the right thing to do. The entire staff is customer oriented, professional, responsive, and take pride in what they do. We’re getting an EV outlet installed later this year along with a battery, and are looking forward to working with the team again!

We saw a lot of recommendations for Altair Solar on the Nextdoor app. At that time, we already signed up with Tesla (Solar City). We were glad that we contacted them. The owner, Khaled Elsheref was the one who came to our house to do the estimate. Very nice people. They don't pressure you to signup. Two solar companies backed out saying that our roof is too small and panels will not fit and the 3 story house next to us will be on the way. Those two only based it on google maps. Altair used an application to simulate where the sun will directly hit our roof from sun set to sun down. Pretty amazing. This way, they know where to place the panels efficiently. What made us chose Altair?<br /><br />1. Tesla quoted us $15k for a 3.4KW unit. Altair quoted us $11k for a 3.9KW unit. Bigger unit for less. Tesla tried to price match and offered 13k for 3.4KW unit. Altair is still cheaper minus the federal tax credit, the whole unit is only 8k.<br /><br />2. Tesla's solar panel shown to us was Panasonic 315 watts and 325 watts max. Altair uses LG 355 watts panels. Altair have better panels. <br /><br />3. Tesla's warranty is 20 years or 25 if you have Tesla referral code. Altair's warranty is 25 years without a hassle.<br /><br />4. Very nice people. No pressure. Always on contact. <br /><br />Took them 2 days to install the unit. Prolonged by the city inspector for showing up too early. Installation was smooth and clean. Unit is up and running. We are very happy with the service and the unit.

Altair Solar was one of the most talented and top knowledgeable companies I worked with when I was hunting for my solar installation. Both khaled and Nader were very instrumental in the process. They worked with me with all the details and helped me understand the values and technologies (which is important to me). Nader and team helped me with all of HOA's rules and regulation. we have submitted the forms and they assisted along the way. During the installation, Nader and Crew were on top of things. the installation went on time and on schedule. they were very meticulous, detailed and courteous. they have met most if not all of my requests and asks. Solar installation can be a difficult task but with Altair Solar and Nader's crew it went event less. thanks a lot. definitely recommend.

This is our second solar installation. Both times we are extremely happy that we chose to go with a local company that is invested in the community and to help promote hardworking small businesses. The owner, Khaled is an electrical engineering geek which is exactly what you want for someone installing your solar system. He is extremely knowledgeable, experienced and very easy to work with. He communicates well, is flexible and just an all around great guy. You really can't go wrong by choosing Altair Solar. Not only does he offer a great product, but he has excellent prices. His team did everything--all the paperwork, inspections etc. We got four bids, and based on his reviews and his personality, we chose Khaled and Altair. We highly recommend Altair Solar!

Great experience! This was one of the easiest home improvement projects I've ever experienced. The reason is Khaled and his crew. Altair was probably the tenth quote I had gotten for solar installation. They came in at a substantially lower price than the rest of the quotes I had gotten. Also, with Khaled, I didn't have to endure the used car salesman approach that most of the other solar companies put you through. He is very knowledgable about his products and is always happy to answer any questions that come up. We decided to purchase our solar by using financing. Altair works with a financing company that gives decent financing terms and it's a breeze to get approved. It's all done online and via emails and docusign. Super easy! Permits and applications are all moved along smoothly throughout the process by Khaled. Altairs installers are very polite and professional. System was up and running within about one week. Great job!
