Did Anyone Buy Solar from Synergy Solar? Business No Longer Functioning?

See here - I was the one of the ones that bought solar from them and concerned about future warranty claims.

Also I still have a pending issue with the solar install

Is anyone else in a similar situation?

    Are you suggesting they have shut up shop?

    $3k for a 6.6kw lol, no wonder, get what you pay for.

      Mine was $3300, better products than in that deal, and the company is still around, and has been for ages. 5 years on with zero issues, paid itself off in under 2 years.

          Did you read? 5 years, zero issues.

            @brendanm: About the time issues start

            • @[Deactivated]: That's just massive cope. Fronius warranty is 5 years, so no matter what I'd purchased, I'd be in for issues apparently.

              I'd be devastated if I had to buy another inverter for $500 or so after 5 years, would break my heart and bank balance.

          same here, paid <$3000 for 6.6kw system, still running. Until my system dies, I still laugh at those paying $8k for a 6.6kw micro or sunpower system.

          • @lgacb08: good luck

            • @[Deactivated]: So how much did you pay for your solar?

              • @freefall101: A lot more obviously, probably got advice on whirlpool that if it's not fronius with LG panels, it will catch fire and kill all small children and animals in a 10km radius.

    Don't worry. The sun will still come up in the morning.

    No need to have concerned, they have gone under. You have none via them anymore.

    Seems to be the norm for Solar company directors :/

    Shut one down to avoid warranty claims/complaints, start another to get new business :(

      Yep. No way I'd buy solar from an ad. Only from an established local business that ALSO does solar.

  • Business no longer functioning?

    Wow, I think I dodged a bullet. Originally was getting a quote from them and while they sound reasonable I weren't too sure about how long they will exist. Ended up going with one from solarquotes that has been around for 10+ years for a little bit more (bigger system and better quality panel + inverter).

    Synergy, which is still a functioning business, no longer does residential solar installs, and instead recommends Solargain.
    .
    But if you go to the Synergy website and search “solar”, there is a support number to call for queries on existing Synergy-installed systems.

    I think you’ll be ok.

  • I got a 10kw/10kw system installed for 3600 from them… Operating good.. just hope it doesn't break before we sell the house!
