“I appreciated and still appreciate the philosophy of Sugar Hollow, which matches mine. It’s a holistic philosophy. The biggest surprise for me in going solar is that it doesn’t change your lifestyle at all, in fact, it enhances it. It keeps you connected to what’s going on outside.”

“I am extremely impressed with Sugar Hollow Solar. For years, I thought about solar power and talked to a couple of local providers. I chose Sugar Hollow over my second choice, as they explained the process much more clearly (the other company ‘lost me’ right away). Sugar Hollow cost me a little less, and a real advantage was that they could come sooner than the other company. Great bunch of guys did the installation; smart, polite and trustworthy. I’m producing more energy than they predicted, and, so far, I have no electric bill, even in winter, with the shorter days. I’ve had the panels for just 3 months, and have set a new KW high record every few days.”
