YVEA’s Qualified Solar Installer Program
YVEA established a Qualified Solar Installers Program to provide a list of reputable solar installers to our members. Before being added to the list, installers must go through a vetting process to ensure they provide expert advice and quality service.
While you are welcome to choose whichever installer you prefer, we recommend your choose one of the professionals on this list. Doing so will help you avoid aggressive sales techniques, dishonesty, completion issues, code violations, no follow-up after project completion, and overall dissatisfaction in installer performance.
