Default Solar Lights

We will have solar lights installed in our new home in Buttonwood----I would appreciate your feedback on "The Solar Guys" vs. "Solar Lights & More".

Thanks!

I have used The Solar Guys for three solar tubes and two solar attic fans. Each installer did an excellent job and there was no messy cleanup. The tubes they use provide lots of light to the area they are installed in. We couldn't be happier with the tubes, the installation process and the techs that did the installation.

I know nothing about the other company you've mentioned, but I do believe I've read that they use a different type of tube...light provided might be a bit different in color and/or intensity.

No matter who you use, I think you'll enjoy having the extra light these tubes bring into an area.

There was a long thread I started a few months ago about solar tubes. If you search my name you will see the thread. There is lots of info on it.


PS: I got solar tubes in my Iris in Buttonwood and The Solar Guys did them. You are welcome to stop over and see ours...if the sun ever shines again.

I've used Solar lights and more for 3 tubes and an attic fan. No problems whatsoever so it looks like whoever you choose will be fine.

We just had three solar lights installed by Solar and More and are very pleased. Our house already had one solar, apparently installed by The Solar Guys because it is different from the new ones. Both are fine.

We had 3 solar tubes and 1 attic fan installed by the Solar Guys. They took care of the permit and notifying the county when they were finished. We were happy with the entire process.

I do not know anything about the other company.

I have the Solar Guys coming to install a solar attic fan and a solar tube in my kitchen. I selected them because of the positive feedback on TOTV.
