I am extremely happy with our solar system installed in spring last year and with the overall process with TFS. Looking at the metrics on the monitoring system, our solar panels are producing very well and we have been saving a lot on monthly electricity bills since the system was setup (3 to 5x cheaper bill depending on the months, we even had a $0 in November!), so I want to emphasize that the system was very well sized based on our consumption.
As for the process, I was extremely pleased with our initial exchange, this was very helpful for me to understand the basics of solar energy and TFS didn't try to sell us more than we needed (such as batteries for storage). All the technicians have been friendly, professional and very helpful. We had a completely unrelated electrical problem which started happening coincidentally at the same time as the installation but was absolutely not related to the system, however the technician who came to install our monitoring system very kindly checked our electrical panel and try diagnosing the issue and made some suggestions. 100% recommended!

Highly recommend - just an easy, fantastic experience from start to finish. This feels like a company and team that like what they do. The proposal process was easy and low pressure. I had another proposal where the company proposed 115% of my power needs (why do I need to make more than I consume?) and TFS proposed much less than that. I asked why, and I was told given my roof layout, any other panels would be in shade and not as efficient and they don't recommend it. Nice!
They met their commitments and communicated every step of the way. TFS handled almost everything from working with my town to the power company. I worked with my HOA but that was due to HOA requirements and TFS prepared everything I needed to provide to them and knew more about the process with them than I did! The installation crews were well organized and efficient and the data monitoring set up person was a great trainer and very knowledgeable. I can't imagine a better experience. Highly recommend.

I can't say enough good things about the overall experience with TFS. They installed a very large system with battery backup on my new home and I was informed about what to expect at every stage of the installation. All of their work is top tier and the entire team is friendly and treat your home as if it were theirs. They have exceeded my expectations and I am so happy I selected TFS for my solar needs. The house isn't completed yet so I can't enjoy all of the benefits of the system but I am looking forward to all it will offer as soon as we move into the house.

TFS installed 24 solar panels on the roof of our newly constructed home in the Catalina Foothills of Tucson. TFS kept us informed throughout the certification and commissioning process and the technicians working with us to understand the monitoring app were extremely professional. We would highly recommend Technicians For Sustainability.

We have been wanting Solar for years but it seemed like it was a high pressure sales game. We wanted to OWN our solar, not "rent" Our friends had great experiences with TFS and we loved the entire experience with TFS, including the high quality product, that we can own it, it's very affordable, great monitoring service and the excellent customer service!
Our skeptical roofer has seen a lot of damage to roofs after solar installation. He has stated TFS has installed the panels very well without roof damage. He inspected our roof after installation and gave his seal of approval! Definitely recommend TFS!

TFS installed solar panels on an existing steel-and-glass greenhouse structure at my home. I am an architect so I understand that it was a challenging project requiring difficult steel connections, precise dimensions, and thoughtful mounting and connection design. They did a fabulous job and it is working perfectly. They did precisely what they said they would do and they were on-time and on-budget. I would recommend TFS without qualification.

TFS first installed my system in 2017. After converting two gas water heaters to electric, relying more on electricity for cooking, and the increased use of air conditioning, I decided to add panels this year (2021). Both times, working with TFS was very easy. There was absolutely no pressure to make a decision. They informed me of every step along the way and were very considerate of my schedule. I highly recommend them.
