Sunlux is a top-rated solar company in Southern California. We like that it has a range of equipment options. Its 24/7 monitoring app lets you easily track your system’s performance, and tech support is on standby if anything goes wrong.
- “Sunlux has been very diligent. Everything is transparent. They've tried to accommodate a lot of the questions and concerns that I've had. They don't promise everything, but they provide you with the details. The gentleman who explained the details to me had a very detailed presentation. — James in Simi Valley
- “Sunlux had the product that I wanted and other companies may have been a little cheaper but they force you into buying a system that wasn't exactly what I wanted to buy. The process was a little bit slow with Sunlux but all in all, my experience was good.” — Pierce in Simi Valley
We’ve heard some minor complaints about installation delays. For instance, K. in Simi Valley told us that it took us several months to get an official permission to operate (PTO), which is when people actually start seeing lower utility bills. “There was some snag with the paperwork. They filed the wrong paperwork with something,” K. told us. “I didn't quite follow which agency got the wrong paperwork, but that held up the PTO approval by the power company.”
Solar panel installations are complicated projects, and mix-ups or misunderstandings are always possible. Overall, K. is still satisfied with Sunlux’s equipment and service.
Sunlux specializes in residential solar panel installations with battery backup systems. It’s available throughout Southern California, including Simi Valley.
