Know Your Installer

With so many solar providers in the industry today, it's extremely hard to choose a company that truly has your best interests in mind. Please do your research before hiring a solar contractor!​

​

First and foremost—avoid door-to-door solar sales! These companies prioritize volume and profit over your best interests. They often hire unqualified personnel to design and install solar systems as quickly as possible, with little concern for safety or quality. Unfortunately, many homeowners are lured in by promises of low monthly bill payments, only to end up paying 2.5 times more for their system in the long run. These contractors are in it for the money and take advantage of those who don’t research their options carefully.

​​

Bigger isn’t always better! Most large solar companies take a “one-size-fits-all” approach when installing residential PV systems. They use the same oversized solar panels, inverters, roof racking, and tie-in methods—often just strapping an electrical cable to the roof and running it down the exterior wall. This standardized approach prioritizes speed and convenience for their installers rather than tailoring the system to each home. Since these companies focus primarily on large-scale commercial projects that yield higher profits, they often charge more due to high overhead, and compromise on the quality and customization of residential installations.

 

Inexperienced contractors are also a major cause of poor solar system installations. Many new companies enter the industry with little knowledge of solar energy and construction. Often, these businesses are run by investors who hire an Electrician to oversee the work or by young Electricians with minimal construction experience. In both cases, the lack of expertise results in poorly designed and low-quality installations.​

Choosing the right solar provider is crucial to ensuring a safe, reliable, and well-designed system for your home. Vibrant Solar Solutions is locally owned and operated by Master Electricians with almost 30 years of experience in electrical construction and solar technology. It's truly unfortunate that we see so many unqualified solar contactors (some from the U.S.) trying to cash-in on the "solar boom" here in Alberta with little regard to the property and owner. Our focus on customer safety, product quality, and professional integrity sets us apart from other companies who choose to put themselves first. We bring a vast amount of expertise to every project and guarantee your solar system with an industry-leading 6-year comprehensive warranty to ensure long-term performance and reliability!​​
