Contractors are often tough to deal with, but I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Home Team Energy.
Sales & Proposal:
Having worked for a competitor solar company one summer, I saw firsthand all the fraudulent sales tactics and inflated pricing, not just for equipment, but also for finance fees and interest. That experience turned me off to solar for years. Ryan’s honest, straightforward, and significantly more cost-effective proposal is what finally got me on board. He even provided a detailed spreadsheet showing how much WE Energies has raised its rates year after year, between 6% and 10% annually over nearly the past decade. Seeing that trend really drove home how valuable this system will be long-term.
Installation & Management:
The electricians, installers, and management team were true professionals. They walked me through every step, answered all my questions, and made sure I understood the process. The installation itself was just as impressive, the electricians never rushed, instead taking the time to make the system blend seamlessly into my home. Communication was clear and consistent from start to finish.
Equipment
I went with Enphase IQ8X Microinverters paired with REC460A Pure-RX panels. The Enphase app is excellent, and the all-black panels look great on the roof. I probably could have squeezed in 2–3 more panels, but Ryan saved me from overspending since I was already at 120% offset. Thanks to my house layout, all panels sit on the garage and covered patio, meaning if a roof leak ever did occur, it wouldn’t affect the main living space. WE Energies’ new bi-directional meter also simplified the install and gave the system a clean, integrated look.
Post-Install Service:
Home Team is proactive about setting customers up for success in every facet. After my first month of production, WE Energies billed me correctly. In the second month, WE Energies made a mistake, but Ryan and Brian stepped in big time. They went above and beyond, coaching me through the best way to get resolution from y energy provider.
Final Thoughts:
If you’re considering solar, I couldn’t recommend Home Team Energy more highly. They truly care about their customers and make the entire experience stress-free and beneficial. Since you made it this far in my review, here’s my own sales pitch: Home Team offers a referral bonus. If this review helped you, I’d be happy to split it with you, just mention my name when you contact them or reach out to me to connect!
