Our experience with True Solar was great. They were very professional, informative and responsive throughout the whole process. Aside form some documentation that we needed to gather, they did all of the heavy lifting. All we had to do is be patient for everything to get installed, inspected, and approved. I would highly recommend working with True Solar if you're thinking about making the switch from grid to solar!

Great Solar Company for those looking in Eastern Iowa

My experience with True Solar was great. Everything from the quote to the install. My sales rep did a wonderful job describing the specific components of the the system I purchased. The project manager did a excellent job of keeping me updated during the entire process! And the installation was done very professionally! The entire Install went quicker than expected and I was producing power well before spring! Very pleased with True Solar and would highly recommend them to anybody looking to do solar! I wanted a system where I could set it and forget it and the system I got with True Solar is simply that!

Smooth process and installation.

The rep was up front about all costs and the timeline for installation. Installers were all pleasant to work with. The office notified us as soon as we had a utility document to sign. They took care of all the miscellaneous fees (inspections, permits, etc.). We're happy to be reducing our electrical costs at last!

Thumbs up

Could not have asked for a better experience from start to finish. From my very first phone call to being able to pull the switch. The process was as smooth as it could be. They answered all my questions and guided us though it all. I would highly recommend True Solar to anyone looking for the solar advantage to fight the rising cost of utility bills.

Easy and straightforward

Sales - John did a great job working with me to validate what we needed. His proposal was straightforward, low pressure, and was pretty close to what I had estimated on my own. Project management - Brandi kindly put up with a lot of random texts, emails, and phone calls from me asking about status and next steps. True Solar handled all of the permitting, paperwork, scheduling, and coordination so that I only needed to contribute signatures at the appropriate times. Install - the installation team was great. They were quick and clean and coordinated well with me on details that I might care about (like cutting into walls by our breaker box).

True Solar was excellent at keeping us informed. Very good at keeping on schedule.

Ed and Lynn Dubuque Project

We had been intrigued by and researching solar energy for our home for several years. This summer we had several companies knocking on our door rekindling our curiosity about going solar. After more research and comparing several proposals from various companies, we chose to go solar with True Solar and could not be happier. We are impressed with how much energy is being produced in what should be the least efficient time of the year in Dubuque when it comes to producing solar energy. The panels look great and we love checking our energy output and consumption on the apps. Our decision to go with True Solar was based on what we felt was superior equipment with the best warranty’s. In addition, True Solar has a great reputation for installations. Our sales rep, John explained the process of the install better than any of the other reps, while explaining everything to us along the way in a way that made sense. He also showed the most pride in the small but mighty company he works for and stated the whole team at True Solar would be professional, and have more expertise than any competitor. He was so right! Everyone we worked with throughout the process was amazing. From the young man who knocked on our door, to the sales department, project management, electricians, installation crew and finance department… EVERYONE was amazing. We feel like this is just the beginning of a long term relationship and we could not be happier about going solar and becoming a member of the True Solar family! Ed & Lynn in Dubuque

Communication

Updated Jan 17, 2024: The True Solar folks have been providing excellent service and communication since the earlier miscommunication. <br /><br />Communication good until payment made. Then communication stopped. We don’t know the status of the project and get no returns to our inquiries.

Awesome Service

Communication was prompt and all work was done quickly and professionally.
