    Answered
    ABCO was subcontracted by Moxie Solar back in February 201 to install solar panels on my house, to handle all the permitting and inspections. They were also hired to install a critter net around the panels and a sense monitor to the system. they did install the panels 9/8-9/10. They did not install the critter net or the sense monitor. They also had the city do an inspection, which it failed on 9/17. They had no fire permit, city permit and there was other missing information and corrections needed. They have completely ignored me since then. I have reached out to ***** many times only to be told he wasn't available. I did reach ***** once where I was told by him that the permits were all paid and the fire inspector would be to my house no later than 11/12. I contacted the fire inspector and they have no such inspection even scheduled because ABCO has still not paid the permit. I have also filed a complaint with the Registrars of Contractors, which has done nothing to make ABCO move on this. they are a Tucson company that never should have taken the job here in Phoenix.

    My roofing company subcontracted to ABCO Solar in Oct 2023 to remove then reinstall my solar panels. We had several issues with this company:1- When they first came to remove the solar panels, I was told that my solar inverters were blinking red, indicating a problem. This was not true, but we discovered this later.2- They investigated the reason for the red light. They, particularly their manager ***********************, told me it was because improper wiring and incorrect breakers placed for the solar panels. ***** recommended replacing our commercial solar breaker with a residential breaker. I ok'ed all work, and was charged $500. I asked for a receipt but was provided none. Despite asking multiple times by phone, text and email over 4 months.3- my husband checked the inverters, and the inverters were blinking orange not red. Orange means the inverters were not being monitored. This we verified with the inverter company to be true.4- we ordered a monitor for our inverters and asked ***** and ABCO Solar to provide with mapping for our inverters. 4 months later, despite phone calls, texts and emails this has not been provided.5- we asked ABCO Solar to sign a lien waiver. 4 months later despite phone calls, texts and emails this has not been provided.6- I spoke to *********************** Jan 19 ****. He no longer works for ABCO Solar. I can not rely on ABCO Solar to diagnose a solar issue correctly, charge me for their work honestly, and respond to reasonable requests.
