    From day one with Anthony G. I had a sense of comfort with him. He was professional and answered my questions patiently. The installation went smoothly and the company speedily took care of one concern. I’m very satisfied, I do recommend Anthony G and this company.

    Great work on solar so far!My first meeting with them was on 10/7/22. My meter was swapped yesterday by Graig, so they got my solar up and running after 2 months. Highly recommended!

    Scammers. System produces 48% of what they told me it would. They employed a combination of misleading sales tactics and outright lies/fraud. I have been reaching out and calling them for a year asking them to give me what I paid for and they continually ignore me or tell me they are working on it.

    After looong search and multiple meetings i decided to go with Affordable solar to get my PV system. If solar makes sense enywhere it should be in Texas. First i connected with Tommy. Very knowlegable guy. He was patient enough to answer all my questions and go through numerous scenarios. I ennded up puting 35 panels and two enphase batteries. After few weeks i got a phonecall from Justin, that they were ready. Next day pannela were delivered and installed the day after. The whole process went so smooth. Cody, Justin and Chad - big shout for them. The system was energized three day after and till then it is producing like crazy. On top of my loan, my next projected bill is $5-6, so at least so far everything works as expected. The batteries make huge difference. I have an ev so i opted for free nights plan. The Affordable offered the most competitive price, installation and connection went very smooth so if you are on the marke tfor pv system give them an honest consideration, From my perspective they are definitely worth it! And did i mention enphase app? Very intuitive and user friendly!!!!

    I’m a current customer for Affordable solar. I’m so happy with all the post sale attention, that Raul the technician and Justin have given me. These are the type of personnel that make a difference between a bad company and good company. I extremely recommend Affordable for your next solar project as they never leave you in the dark about anything and are there to help you at any time. This amount of care is exactly what we need as customers.

    BUYER BEWARE!
    The install went smoothly and the panels seem to be working fine BUT they promised to make my first 6 payments. My 4th payment is due shortly and I have yet to receive any money from them despite multiple text, emails and phone calls to the salesman (Jose) and the office manager - BUYER BEWARE

    Update: It's now 3 days after last contacting the office and was told I would have a tracking number for the replacement check "within the hour". Still no tracking number and still no check.
    I did receive a series of texts from the salesman whining about the 1 star review. ATTENTION MANAGEMENT- The job is not done until ALL of the promises are kept!

    Now 12 days since the "office manager" told me I would get a FedEx tracking number "within the hour".. Today I was told it has to be approved by Jose (salesman) and of Jonathan (his boss?) AND they are both out of town at a "leadership conference". (LOL) and would be back next Monday. Pathetic, BUYER BEWARE!

    I am just very unhappy with this company right now! Definitely think twice before you decide on them. I have read some other reviews and they just rave about them! Boy why did we get the short end of the stick! We have everything installed and only produced power for a few days . But cannot run a/c less than 75 degrees. Cannot use my dryer. They come out do something and now no production! We call and they have too many other installs that they come first. So in the mean time we are using electricity and we will be getting a solar bill in a month. Just definitely not happy!

    Overall, I’m happy with choosing affordable Solar to put up my panels. When I have called them, they respond quickly and dispatched someone same day. Project manager and field have been communicating with me step by step in the process. Justin and Cody thank you for your help!

    Affordable Solar has done a great job installing my panel. The whole process has been a breeze. Their pricing is very reasonable and affordable just like their name. Our sales rep., Anthony is professional and knowledgeable. He made the process seem easy for us. And Carlos went above and beyond by making it to my house at 7PM to startup my system so I can start earning energy credits ASAP. I would definitely recommend these guys.

    I’ve had panels with this company for over a year now, Once they get your money, they stop responding. Was told by two of their own technicians that they incorrectly installed my panels because they hired the wrong people to work on my house and had my panels fail several times. My panels were not operating for over four months last year and I had to repeatedly beg them to come out and fix my system. I’ve been trying to contact them for two months now about getting reimbursed and they refused to pick up my call or call me back. I’ve been calling them every single week since December.

    Absolute worst company I've had to deal with. 2 month job took over 6 months to complete. Roofing job is mediocre, and not sealed around vents. Electrical cuts off randomly at certain parts of the house. They changed the solar panel layout while installing, then promised to install 2 extra panel to compensate, but 3 months with no reply. One of the breaker boxes installed on the house is not sealed and had INCHES of water sitting in so that all needs replaced. Avoid this company at all costs because the customer service is the worst I've ever seen.
    **UPDATE** 11/15/23
    Constant power outages and they said they’re busy and can get to me after the holidays.
    Enphase came by to replace a part and said Affordable Solar Air LEFT PARTS OUT! My system is literally missing parts and has not been commission for the almost year it’s been running.
    5+ panels either not prior icing or produce less that half of the rest.
    Even at full production we’re not getting near what they promised.
    Avoid at all costs.

    We recently installed a solar system from Affordable Solar, Roof, & Air and are satisfied with everything. Everybody from start to finish were awesome. I wasn’t a big fan of solar until Dave educated me on the net-zero concept of locking in the electrical costs of our all electric house. It made sense because I have little confidence in our power grid and future energy generation. The cost of electricity will definitely go up. Blake turned our system on and bang it was producing electricity. I was impressed by his knowledge of the system installed and he took the time to explain every aspect of it. He knew the business top to bottom. It’s too early to know the financial benefits of the system but ASRA guarantee the results. It has been a pleasurable experience. I highly recommend Affordable Solar, Roof, & Air.

    I placed an order for a solar and battery installation in Houston with Affordable Solar Roof and Air back in December 2023. I chose them based on a reasonable price and excellent review history. It took them until mid-July, 2024 (~7 months) to get approval for the design from Centerpoint and the city of Houston. I think the Cityof Houston requested 7 revisions to the design before it was approved. Unfortunately the design was for a full house battery backup which is the wrong type for this installation (7.2 kW solar panels and 10 kWh batteries). There was no critical loads panel included, which was part of the original sales contract. The project manager tried to convince me on the phone that they would add the additional panel during the installation and there was no need to revised and resubmit any plans for approval from Centerpoint and the City of Houston. I did not accept this and asked for a revised plan.

    It has been approximately 1 month since that conversation. I have sent numerous emails and voice mails that have gone unanswered. I called the 800 number last week asking for my deposit back. I was told this must go through the regional manager Jonathan Meeks and that he would call me back. There has been no return call. His phone number goes to voice mail and the mail box is full, so cannot leave a message.

    Based on my experience with them I am baffeled that there are any positive reviews. Beyond the initial sales conversations (the saleman is no longer with the company) their performance has been severely lacking in communication and design execution.

    Stay away!
    I found Affordable Solar Roof & Air through a website that recommends reputable companies in Texas, but my experience was anything but positive. I strongly advise you to avoid this company if you value your time, money, and peace of mind.
    When the representative visited our home, he used their website to explain the number of solar panels that were needed to become entirely independent of the grid. We signed a contract for a system of 20 panels, designed to provide 8,000 kW of power. According to them, this would not only make us self-sufficient but also generate excess energy that we could sell back to CenterPoint. Additionally, by installing a Tesla battery, we were assured we’d have enough backup power during outages, hurricanes, or evenings.
    Here’s where things went wrong:
    1. Their contract only had information about the number of panels, total power of the system and warranty. There was absolutely no information about the battery, long term maintenance of the system, what the next steps were.
    2. After taking our money, they left us to handle everything ourselves. We had to deal with CenterPoint, obtain permits, and even perform the final connection by ourselves. Despite multiple calls, they provided no assistance.
    3. At one point, I received a misleading text message suggesting that all I had to do was to “lift a handle” to complete the setup. This was far from accurate, and I eventually had to get detailed instructions from another representative. Even then, the system still didn’t function correctly.
    4. Though the battery was fully charged, we continued to rely on grid power. I made countless calls, but they couldn’t even help us set the system to use the battery properly. After struggling, I finally got it working, but the system still depends partially on the grid.
    5. Worse yet, when I tested disconnecting entirely from the grid, the battery lasted for a few hours! This was a far cry from the promised solution, especially regarding nighttime power.
    6. Another problem is when it is overcast. The system does not produce enough power to keep the house running and with a single battery during a hurricane it is not much different than not having the system at all.

    Conclusion:
    I cannot emphasize this enough—stay far away from Affordable Solar Roof & Air. They are not transparent, and their customer service is terrible. Sure, there are limitations on the technology, but they could at least have explained what it would take and how much it would cost to get a system that was entirely grid independent.

    DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY
    I was desperate due to the fact that my electricity bill was as high as $780 for 1 month. My house is only 1,500 square feet. They placed panels on my entire roof ($95,000). I painted $84,000 for my home...
    I was told that I might get an electricity bill that's $20 or a refund check for producing to much energy. ALL LIES. Then they used 2 different financing companies to get me financed. (the sales rep told me to my face " well we aren't really allowed to do that but let try anyways) then I had to pay $1,000 to have my breaker box up to code (they placed plastic tie stripes around the wires to make it look nice). For maybe 3 months the sales rep refunded me what the 2 financing companies were charging me because the panels were still not activated. Then my electricity bill was still very high and on top of that I was paying around $200 to both financing companies. Now that I have changed to a different electricity company my lowest bill might have been $165 but I'm still paying a little over $400 a month for the panels so roughly $565 a month for electricity. But that's not even the worst part. I was in a major car accident, my car was totaled, I missed a lot of work etc... I reached out to both financing companies and told them about my situation and asked for assistance and instead of them offering me anything they placed a lein on my home after missing 2 payments. If I had the time and energy I'd take the panels off myself and tell them to come pick them up.

    The one star is not applicable to their solar installers as they were exemplary.

    My system consists of 48 panels and 8 batteries that are Enphase brand. They're quick to sell you a system and even quicker to leave you in the lurch. Getting anyone to do anything at all is like getting Congress to help anyone but themselves. They act put upon when you ask for updates. We were told a couple of months from the time we signed the contract until our system was ready for prime time. It took a year and a half with several of those weeks caused by Affordable Solar having to correct diagrams required by CenterPoint. Even after it went live, the guy who was supposed to give me the walkthrough literally couldn't answer simple questions and when I asked to speak with the electrician, his answer was and I'm quoting directly, "He doesn't have time for your questions".

    I continue to struggle with grid dependence, despite promises to the contrary. I've given up getting anything useful from anyone there. I highly advise you to stay away from this company unless you strictly hire for solar installation.

    With us just moving to Texas we encountered our 1st storm / power outage and it was an experience I can say 🥺. Our neighbors suggested going solar and so I found this company through Google and boy am I so grateful ! David, goes by Dave, was the guy to explain how everything works and was Extremely knowledgeable in his field, very professional, arrived on time, nicely personable with being truly sweet to mine and my husband's 2 kids while we were talking with him. Then when the guys came out to install the batteries and panels Gera, Antonio and the other guys were so hard working! Very professional,
    listened to good music when installing panels (actually it help put the baby to sleep 🤣👍🤗), and they were very informative with everything they were doing or need from us! I highly recommend this company for other family. We are truly excited to be apart of the solar family!

    I recently had my roof replaced by these guys and had a great experience. Very knowledgeable and helpful especially when dealing with the insurance company. They took my solar panels down, put on a new roof and reinstalled my panels quickly with no issues. I would recommend them to anyone.

    We had to find a new solar company to remove and reinstall our solar panels because the company that installed them went out of business. We also needed to replace our roof. Spoke to Justin and he came over and sat down with me and my husband. He explained the whole process and was able to do everything within our budget. They had the roof done in a day and a half and replaced the solar panels a week later. Definitely would recommend them for your solar needs and roofing. Thank you Affordable Solar Roof and Air!

    I shopped around for a while and they had the best deal. My salesman Ken was awesome. Walked me through the whole process.
