When other solar providers couldn’t figure out how to mount my desired system on the roof of my barn, iSolar figured it out and it has been working like a dream.
Production on our system during the first year was higher than we had estimated it would be and we are thrilled with our whole-home solar array!
I am a Sr. Project Manager for Patriot Homes, LLC (a general contractor) The solar panels of a customer of mine needed to be removed and reinstalled to facilitate a roof replacement. The original installer had gone out of business, so I contacted Isolar for a bid that I was needing to submit for approval to their insurance carrier prior to our work being done. I also reached out to every single company locally for additional bids and soon found out that half are no longer in business and the other half do not have any one available to speak with when calling and/or don't respond to any attempted communications. Isolar quickly provided me with their estimate and scheduled the removal of the panels and, shortly after our install, they were back in to reattach the system. My homeowner did not have access to his monitoring system as it was never set up during the original install and Isolar was able to work around this even though it obviously made their job more difficult. There was a small issue located by the electric company with the system not producing and Isolar was out almost immediately diagnose the issue and even went so far as to calculate the potential loss to my homeowner ($55) for reimbursement. Without even being asked they are mailing him a check with an additional $20 for the very minor inconvenience caused to the homeowner. If google reviews allowed more stars they would get them from me. As a general contractor there are a lot of moving parts in any project and many subcontractors being coordinated. No one is perfect and work doesn't always go how you hope through all parts of a project, but Isolar is definitely at the top of my list of contractors I have worked with, and I was completely satisfied from start to finish. They are quick, efficient, responsive, punctual, and provided amazing customer service. Dan, Ian, Jason, Ryan, and Michael are a great team and very obviously work together to provide this awesome experience to their customers. They were all a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend using them!!
I’ve had my panels for 4 months and no leaks, no breaks, and great production.
They also were the only ones that actually looked at my property and chose the panel location we ended up going with, and so far they're far out producing expectations. Very happy with the service I've gotten from them and would recommend them for sure.
The iSolar team covered all aspects of the sale and installation of the system, ensuring that we were always kept informed. I can’t say enough good about their professionalism in all aspects of our solar installation and follow up. Our system has been operating flawlessly.
You won’t go wrong with iSolar!

by name for any future electrical needs/and or networking needs. It was a great experience from start to finish. We hit a few minor snags and I knew he had other commitments but he stayed later than planned to ensure it was completed to our satisfaction. I couldn't have asked for a more calming presence from an electrician during my stress levels. Also, making an appointment and going over the pricing estimates with him was very easy and straightforward.
Ben, Ryan, and Jason handled the whole thing from start to finish, and were even able to solve some of the nagging problems we had with the system before the roofing project. I cannot recommend these guys strongly enough.
iSolar is Awesome!
Update July 2023:You get what you pay for. iSolar is the best solar company in Minnesota for a reason. Don't let the big companies fool with their fancy publications. This local Twin Cities company should not be overlooked One year after the install, I am able to provide all my electric cost needs and get a check from Dakota electric for over $600. Yes, the electric company paid me. If you remove my Dakota rebate, I still made almost $100. Summary: The cost for electricity in my house and 15,000 miles on the electric car was covered by the solar panels. Thanks to the EV storage rate, I am able to save tons of money each year. The cost of the solar panels will pay for itself in about 6 more years. Keep in mind the savings is a bonus. I wanted solar for the environmental benefits.
Original review from 2022: Big company results with a small town feel. I could not be happier with iSolar. They were the only company willing to move my vents and pipes on my south-facing roof to the north side, resulting in two extra panels. 22 panels total. Justin was a great salesperson who answered all my calls immediately, unlike other companies that forced me to leave a message or make an appointment. They have a family feel to them as they work. They pull together when needed and make sure the customer is happy. Justin, the salesperson, was also one who helped with the installation. Your salesperson is also one of the installers. Yes, everyone in the company is hands-on and knows what they are doing. When there are structural needs, they call in Three Rivers Contracting to help. Larry, from Three Rivers, made sure everything looked fantastic. In fact, I will have my shed in my backyard reconstructed using Three Rivers next summer.
A 30-year warranty is what sold me. A third party backs it up, so if iSolar goes out of business, you are still covered.
They have competitive pricing; I had other companies with lower quotes but picked iSolar because of their excellent customer service and quality work.
Our solar array consists of 48 365-watt Longi solar panels, mounted on Omco ground mount solar racking, and 2 SolarEdge SE7600H-US inverters. In the first year of operation, we generated 27,701 kWh.
To be even more carbon neutral, we also installed a Waterfurnace 5-ton, Series 7 geothermal heat pump. During the first heating season, the heat pump used 7,178 kWh x $0.10 /kWh = $718 to heat our 3,400 sq. ft. home.
Looking at our kWh production and consumption history, in that first year, we sold 20,612 kWh to the power coop, we purchased 10,541 kWh, for a net 10,071 kWh sold to the power coop. In the winter months when there are shorter daylight hours, we purchase more power than we sell. But starting about in February, we sell the Coop more than what we purchase. Since we installed the solar array, we haven’t had to pay any electric or heating bills, and as of the end of 2022, we have a credit of $756 on our electric bill. The solar array provides all our power, including what is needed to heat the house. Going solar is the best purchase we’ve ever made.
The installers were quick, kind, and clean. I highly recommend iSolar.
I knew I wanted a local solar installer, and I am glad to have found Ryan and his team at iSolar.
