Pac Solar Corporation

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 November 2014
“Eric and Pac Solar are great - from initial discussions, to the bid and contracting process, to installation, permitting and establishing our ability to monitor the performance of the system ourselves. Explanations were clear and thorough; facts were well documented; communication was crisp. The system, at least initially, is performing as promised. I recommend Eric and Pac Solar without reservation.”

Dividend Solar
Solar Power Contractors in San Bruno, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 June 2016
“Finally found a company that wasn't hard selling me. I ask a lot of questions, and the folks I spoke with knew their stuff. Its nice not feeling pressured and knowing they only work with a limited number of installers that they vet and spot check over time. I have recommended Dividend to my co-workers, friends and neighbors.”

GreenTech Developers
Solar Power Contractors in San Bruno, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 February 2018
“I got a quote from 5 solar companies before making a decision. GreenTech Developers was the one that seemed to be the most interested in doing the job. They were super fast with scheduling an estimate, answering all the questions and providing the proof of license, insurance and workers comp. They also helped me with my roofing project . The project manager did an amazing job working with my tenants and providing with drone pictures of each project phase; from the beginning to completed the work. The project manager always kept me updated on any changes to the schedule.”
Illuminate Solar Company
Solar Power Contractors in San Bruno, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 January 2020
“We used Illuminate Solar to install a decent sized (11.5kW) system. Mark and his team were great, and I would recommend them without hesitation. They were honest, timely, and clean. We bid out to 6 different installers and they were tied for the lowest cost. Unlike Tesla who has set panels they use in set increments (4, 8, or 12 kw systems and only 320w panels), Illuminate worked with us to get exact right size system and panels to maximize our roof area and needs. They also worked to get the installation done quickly to qualify for tax deduction. Highly recommend.”

Installing solar panels on the roof of your San Bruno, CA home can help you avoid the rising cost of electricity, increase the value of your home, and reduce your carbon footprint. Solar energy is clean and renewable, and government rebates, subsidies and grants encourage homeowners to make the switch. Solar power systems can heat your home, produce electricity and provide hot water so that your home is entirely self sufficient. So whether you want to improve your home’s energy efficiency, save money, or do your bit for the environment, use Houzz to find the best solar power contractor for your needs.

What solar power systems are available?


The two main solar power systems are on-grid and off-grid. On-grid systems – also referred to as grid-tied and utility interactive – are connected to your mains power supply. If your San Bruno, CA home produces more energy than it uses, your meter goes down and you generate credits with your energy provider (check your state government for details on any rebates available). On-grid solar panel systems have lower equipment and installation costs, and will save you money through net metering.

An off-grid solar power system uses battery banks to store the electricity you produce. These battery banks store the sun’s energy so you can use electricity at night or on a cloudy day. This system is designed to keep household electricity running for about two or three cloudy days; longer cloudy periods require a backup generator. Off-grid systems are most suited to households that have no access to the utility grid, and are sometimes a cheaper alternative to extending power lines in remote areas.

Hybrid and portable solar power systems are additional options. A hybrid uses two or more renewable energy sources – usually wind and solar, while portable solar systems are used mostly in farming, fishing and camping, and can be set up when there is no access to mains electricity.

What types of solar panels are available?


There are three main types of solar panels that can can generate electricity for your San Bruno, CA home: monocrystalline, polycrystalline and hybrid. The basic monocrystalline celled panels are fairly efficient and have outstanding performance in cooler conditions, but are marginally more expensive than polycrystalline, which works better in hotter conditions. Hybrid panels use crystalline cells with a thin layer of film, which attracts more energy. This makes hybrid models the most efficient solar panel installation, but also the most expensive. To talk about which solar panels are best for your home and how much energy they produce, contact a San Bruno, CA solar panel company or installer on Houzz.
