180 Solar Power - Escondido, California

Installed my original solar electric system in 2019. Great job! Recently they also added more panels to increase my power to offset more AC during the summer months. They reviewed the rules and were able to add panels without causing a switch to NEM3! Again they did a good job and got it done in a reasonable time.

After 3 years with our solar panels we decided to upgrade and add a battery storage system. Peter came out and figured what we’d need for our house.
With blackouts, planned and unplanned outages and cyber attacks looming we’re happy to be able to live off the grid.
His team is very helpful, very professional and does great work.
Get your battery storage system. The 26% tax credit is still in effect for 2021.

Peter shared more information with me than any of the solicitors with all the "deals". I appreciate honesty & won't give an excellent review unless it's been earned from being to end. We've had our first true up (a full year) of $0 & a credit still remaining on our account with SDG&E. This without a battery. After installation they still take care of their customers! Above & beyond. I highly recommend them for every good reason any of us can hope for! Price, performance & customer care/service.

I highly recommend 180 Solar Power. Peter the owner designed and set up a complete solar system that fully met my needs. He handled a lot of city and covid supply chain issues and kept the project on time, budget and on schedule. Peter and his staff are very responsive during and after the installation and always quickly answer and questions we have. You can go to bigger companies, but with Peter you get great customer service, personalized service and a job well done.

Can't be more happy! Ok, so I bought my house in 2020 and in my past rentals (I wasn't in Escondido) I rarely had to run my air so fast forward to I move into my house middle of Summer in Escondido and it's soooo hot so I have to run my air non stop I was shocked when I got my electricity bill it was minimum $600 in summer, so I decided to possibly look into solar but the sales people were always so pushy it was such a turn off I decided to hold off. Fast forward and the least expensive SDGE bill even when not running ac or heat was about $250. My average bill over the past 3 years is about $550 per month. I got phone calls and people knocking on my door all the time offering solar but again they were very pushy and often rude... one day on my drive home I got a call from a local number I answered and it was a guy offering solar but he was actually nice (Ben is his name) and not pushy so I actually said to him ok you know what you aren't rude and pushy I would be happy to hear what the owner Peter has to say so two days later Peter comes over and goes over what he suggested for my solar plan I was of course asking a ton of questions I'm sure being super annoying and he answered everything without being pushy, without getting annoyed and was just very matter of fact so I ended up moving forward. Another thing is I have friends that were getting solar too, two other houses and mine was done before theirs and they started their process before I did. Both friends it took over a year from start to finish to get their solar installed, mine was done within 4 months and the entire process was so easy between Peter and his wonderful assistant in the office Laura who stayed on top of everything to make sure the process went smoothly. Let's talk about installation day... the guys were on time, so professional, and they did such clean work. They cleaned up everything so nicely and I don't know if you have ever noticed but not all solar is created equally take a look on people's houses you will notice that the solar isn't positioned clean. Anyway so they get me all set up and I have this app where I can see how much energy I'm producing which I am obsessed with and I just got my first month bill (with solar you pay SDGE once a year, it's called a true up will) and my true up so far was only $50!!!!! I'm so happy!!! I mean I am SO HAPPY! So my solar is costing me $300 a month until I pay it off, yes, it's an investment but I'm still paying $200 less per month that I was before so it's a WIN and when solar is paid off it will be even more amazing. Only regret I have is not getting solar sooner. I 100% highly recommend going with 180Solar you won't be disappointed.

My neighbors hired 180 Solar Power to install a solar system for them last year, and raved about how great they were, so when we started looking into solar we met with 180 Solar Power too. We also ended up hiring them to install our solar system last year, and we couldn't be happy with the results! Their was absolutely no sales pressure put on us whatsoever. When we had questions about the design and configuration of the solar system in the initial planning stages of the project, the owner of the company, Peter Stern, actually took the time to come out and meet with us personally to make sure that all of our concerns were being addressed. The installation crew was fantastic. They showed up on time, they were clean cut and professional, they cleaned up the job site every day, and they actually finished the project 1 day ahead of schedule. Best of all, our average electric bill has dropped from an average of $400 a month, to about $10 a month! 180 Solar Power did everything they said they would do, and we are loving the savings. We highly recommend 180 Solar Power. Great company, great people, great results.

I recently purchased a home with a 180 Solar Power installed system. I contacted 180 Solar to transfer ownership and get access to the system data. They responded quickly, transferred ownership, told me the system was still under warranty, and the system needed a new inverter.

The technician was on-time to the appointment, explained the process and time necessary, and completed the work in the estimated time window.

Thank you 180 Solar Power for the excellent customer service!

We just had 180 Solar complete our installation, and they were over the top. Peter is a consummate professional. Knows his stuff, does not try to over sell anything, gives great advice whenever you need it. The crew was diligent, on time, and took care not to damage any of my existing roof materials. The installation of panels was done in one day, with the other rough work prior to that only taking part of the day before. Truly a great team.
