Personalized Design

As an environmentally conscious homeowner, Ricardo was an early adopter of residential solar. While he already had a small existing system on his roof, it wasn’t enough to fully offset his electricity bill. After removing those solar panels, Ricardo wanted to install a new system that would be more efficient and feature higher quality equipment. As part of his Monalee project, Ricardo had 10 Tier One solar panels installed and an Enphase iQ8+ inverter.

The problem:
an inefficient pre-existing system

Like many new builds in California, Ricardo’s home came with a solar system already in place. Unfortunately, the system was small and didn’t meet his energy needs. Ricardo was ready to install a newer, more efficient system. While speaking with several companies, he felt there was a lack of transparency around pricing and that potential change orders would increase the price. He wanted a company that cared about his particular project more than just closing another sale.

The solution:
install in under one month

Ricardo received the support he was looking for with Monalee. His solar system was installed in just 30 days, and he was able to start saving sooner than expected. He found the installation crew to be highly knowledgeable about the equipment they were working with, which provided him with peace of mind. He also appreciated that after his system was activated, the Monalee team showed him how to use the monitoring app so he could see in live time how much energy his panels were converting.
