The rooftop solar boom started in California during the energy crisis of 2001. Barry Cinnamon founded Akeena Solar that year in Silicon Valley, which grew to be the largest residential installer in the last decade with over 10,000 solar customers in California, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Colorado and Hawaii. Akeena partnered with the Westinghouse Electric Company to create Westinghouse Solar in 2010, and then merged with an overseas energy company in 2012. After his success at Akeena and Westinghouse, Barry Cinnamon started Cinnamon Solar in 2012 with several other Valley solar experts. Their passion is to develop residential solar power systems optimized to produce the most electricity for the lowest price. They also recommend and assist customers with appropriate Energy Efficiency (EE) measures to help reduce electric consumption even more. To keep costs down, Cinnamon Solar only works in the Santa Clara County area and installs standardized crystalline silicon panels and microinverter systems.

"When the house goes completely black and subsequently, our entire solar system shuts down, one's anxiety level suddenly goes hay wire. Really?? This can't be happening. So, I contacted Cinnamon Energy Systems, my solar installer, and spoke to Paras Shah explaining that I had experienced a total outage; no electricity from my solar panels and no electricity from PG&E. Within 20 minutes, Paras dispatched Jonathan Munoz to my location to troubleshoot the problem. Jonathan recognized the problem immediately. A circuit breaker had been tripped. He reset the tripped breaker and the power was restored. We were so grateful. However, on the following day (Saturday) we noticed our solar system was not working so we texted Jonathan about the issue. Promptly, he indicated that he thought it might be due to a faulty inverter and a replacement was ordered. In addition to the new inverter, he recommended that the BUI (backup interface), be replaced as well. Once the replacement orders were placed and confirmation was received that the units had been shipped, Yvette Cisneros, their Service Coordinator, promptly scheduled the installation date with us. She was very accommodating and considered our schedules when making the scheduled installation appointment. Installation was set for 3/24/25 between 1pm - 3pm. From start to finish, Yvette did a great job keeping us updated. It was a relief knowing that she was always on top of things, allowing us to feel at ease. When Frank Teague arrived, the lead tech, we found him to be very knowledgeable, approachable, patient and willing to answer all of our questions and concerns regarding the installation. He walked us through each step thoroughly and as we watched, we could tell he was exceptionally skilled. Soon after, Emett arrived to assist Frank especially when the heavier of the 2 units needed to be mounted in place. All in all, the entire process was very seamless -- Everything worked perfectly on the first try! We want to thank the entire Cinnamon Energy team for being so attentive and ensuring customer service remains a top priority."

"NWP installed a new furnace in my home, for which they overcharged me by $3,379, based on the contract they wrote. The job was "completed" in early October, when they demanded the final payment. I asked if they had received approval on the final inspection for the permit, and they assured me they had. In February, while at the Permit Office in Vallejo, I was informed that I still had an open permit with them, that they had not had the final inspection. That permit will soon expire, if it has not already. By that time, one of the ducts they had installed had fallen down and torn; the wires leading to the thermostat had also fallen down across the door. I called and asked them to come out to fix, and to schedule the final inspection. They never showed. When I called to ask where they were, they rescheduled. At that later date, they sent out a technician to survey the problems; he promised he would return the following Thursday to fix them, and would schedule the inspection for Friday morning. None of these things occurred. I texted him and received no reply. So, at this point I have a working furnace, drooping and torn ducts, falling wires, no final inspection, and am missing one register because it was taken to match the size by the technician. I am moving to file a complaint with the Contractors State License Board. I would recommend you find someone else for the job. P.S. Just discovered that their license has been suspended by the CSLB for failure to post a bond."

FAQs for solar panel installation projects in Millbrae, CA

Annual inspections are recommended for residential solar systems, though specific needs vary based on several factors. Newer installations in moderate climates require less frequent professional evaluation, while systems over a decade old or those in harsh environments benefit from more regular attention. Always arrange an inspection following severe weather events that might have damaged components or affected system performance.

Pre-inspection cleaning isn't necessary, as evaluating the current condition of your panels is part of the assessment process. Professional inspectors can effectively examine systems regardless of cleanliness level, as accumulation patterns often provide valuable diagnostic information. However, if panels are completely obscured by heavy debris, bird droppings, or other materials that prevent visual examination of the surface, a basic rinse might be helpful before the scheduled inspection.

A comprehensive solar inspection examines all system components, including panels, wiring, mounting hardware, and inverters. Technicians check for physical damage like cracks or delamination, evaluate electrical connections for corrosion or looseness, and assess overall system performance against expected output levels. The inspection may also verify that safety systems are functioning correctly and that the installation complies with applicable codes and standards.

While traditional manual inspections are effective for most residential systems, specialized inspection methods may provide advantages for certain installations. Factors to consider include system size, roof complexity, accessibility challenges, and safety considerations. For multi-story homes or commercial installations where roof access is difficult or potentially hazardous, alternative inspection approaches offer improved documentation and reduced risk, though potentially at a higher cost.
