Sandbox Solar installed the solar panels on our house in 2023- the system has worked flawlessly since then. I decidied to add local battery backup to the configuration to continue to provide electric service when there are Xcel outages, and to allow greater flexibility on how to supply electricity during periods of high time of use costs. The installation of the two batteries and associated work on conduits, electrical panels, etc took two days with Wyatt and Cavin working away on both days, assisted by Dave on the first day to get the heavy batteries in place and installed. Depending on where you choose to get batteries installed and the available wall space- there is both electrical constraints and aesthetic concerns about where everything should go and how to fit it into the available space. I can honestly say- they did a great job using the available space to fit everything in. The guys out in full days of work and answered all my questions- and had no issue with me watching what was happening. If you choose to go this route- can honestly say these folks know their stuff when it comes to solar system battery backup installation.

Sandbox Solar installed a heat pump and new gas furnace (dual-fuel setup) in our 80-year-old home. The installers, Tyler and Rowan, treated our home like it was their own. They were conscientious and professional and walked us through key decision points. We also needed significant electrical upgrades, and the electrical team, Wyatt and Alex, did an outstanding job working with the challenges of our older home. We are now considering the installation of a tankless water heater and intend to work with Sandbox Solar again.

The team from sandbox that did our solar panel installation was great. Wyatt let us know everything that was going to happen, and did the electric work on the ground. Tony and his team on the roof were fantastic. Tony even painted the conduit on the roof and the wall to match. It looks great.

Sandbox did a detach and reset for us in Boulder when we had our roof replaced (our original solar installer was no longer in business), they did a great job. Really nice group of people, professional, courteous, left everything in good shape. Showed us some squirrel damage we weren’t aware of that had taken a few panels out of service, we added critter guard as a result so we are less likely to have the issue going forward. Happy to recommend their work.

So grateful for Sanbox Solar and their team for helping me with my solar panels! I needed new inverters and a critter guard installed, and they fit me in quickly as a new customer! It's obvious how much pride they take in their work. The customer service is fantastic, and their technicians are amazing. Highly recommend!

Sandbox Solar has gone above and beyond in every aspect of my solar project! Justin in sales had great communication and absolutely no pressure and explained each option with the pros and cons to each. Ryan on the electrical install crew and Bradly with the purple team who Indy talked the panels. Both Ryan and Bradley were respectful of my property and time, working around my schedule. When it comes time for the heat pump, Sandbox will be my company!

WHY IS SOLAR APPRAISAL IMPORTANT?
