The sun is the largest energy source in our solar system. It powers the Earth with its light and heat, feeding trees, animals, plant life and changing seasons with its radiant and vital power. In the past few decades, mankind has developed more efficient energy technologies in response to the growing global energy crisis, which has not only caused environmental concern, but inflated the cost of utility rates in homes all across America.

Major advances in solar power have brought the vision of self-sustained communities to a reality. Solar power, or the science of absorbing life-generating solar rays from the sun and converting them into electrical power, holds many benefits for families and communities that utilize this exciting technology.

With over 50 years combined experience providing innovative solutions for homeowners worldwide, System Pavers Co-founders Larry Green and Doug Lueck made the decision to launch a full-service, custom-design solar power provider. The enormous potential in this groundbreaking new industry really struck them, and so they launched Kianga Solar! Kianga Solar offers the best quality and lowest pricing you will find anywhere, with superior customer service, quality installation and the most efficient, highest quality panels in the industry!

Don’t fall prey to the rapidly rising utility rates! When your Kianga Solar System produces excess power, the meter will begin to spin backwards, accumulating credits with the utility company to offset your bill. Contact us today at 866-210-4900 or visit us on the Web at www.kiangasolar.com to start watching your meter run backwards!

Don’t take our word for it. See what our customers have to say:

“I would like to thank you and your team for carrying out the installation of my solar system in such a professional manner. Your team at Kianga Solar has provided me with the means to produce my own energy and reap the rewards of a reduced energy bill as well as enabling me to participate in contributing to preserving our environment. A ground mount system installation presented many challenges which were dealt with in an efficient and committed manner. I wish you all the best in the future and would not hesitate to refer Kianga Solar.”
Sincerely,
Bill Hauf, CA

“I am a spokesperson for Energy Star and winner of the Flex-Your-Power award. Making a conscious decision last year to reduce my environmental CO2 emissions, and therefore have PV installed on the roof of my home, was an easy one. Or so I thought! I researched solar companies and had five reputable businesses visit my home to assess and quote. Four walked away saying my roof was ‘too difficult’ to install solar panels. Your team at Kianga Solar successfully engineered a solution of 12 panels over 4 arrays integrating individual inverters on each panel. This overcame my shading and pitch issues. Kianga Solar delivered what I was promised, always arrived on time as scheduled and I signed off the installation without any issues. My first net energy metering electrical bill arrived yesterday and it was for $47 as opposed to the previous months $126.53. Wow!! That is totally amazing!
Thanks for your expertise, ingenuity and professionalism.”

When you are looking for a good contractor, price should not be your sole consideration. In times of financial downturn, making economical decisions may be necessary, but it should not be at the cost of quality. So before you sign the dotted line, become an informed consumer and avoid being victimized by unscrupulous or unlicensed operators by asking the right questions ahead of time. Most licensed contractors are competent, honest and hardworking, and they won’t mind answering a few questions.

Protect Yourself, Ask the Important Questions

• Does the contractor have a valid and current license with the state contractor board?
• What kind of insurance does the contractor carry?
• How long has the contractor been in business?
• Does the contractor specialize in one area of contracting?
• What kind of warranty does the contractor offer?
• Ask friends and neighbors for personal recommendatios. Satisfied customers are one of the best ways to find local contractors!

What to Avoid – Contractors Who:

• Appear to do the job at an unusually low price
• Only provide a post office box for their business address
• Require full or substantial payment before work begins
• Refuse to provide you with a written estimate or contract
• Refuse to provide you with a state license number
• Refuse to provide you with references

Before You Sign the Dotted Line – Make Sure the Contract Includes:

• A detailed summary of the work to be done
• A description of materials
• The total contract price or how the price will be calculated
• Timelines and provisions that address what will happen if the contractor fails to meet the contractual deadlines

Don’t Let This Happen to You

Contractor’s State License Board

The Contractors State License Board (CSLB) protects consumers by licensing and regulating California's construction industry. There are more than 310,000 licensed contractors in the state, in 43 different licensing classifications. In addition to educating consumers about contractors and construction law, CSLB activities include administering examinations to test prospective licensees, issuing licenses, investigating complaints against licensed and unlicensed contractors, issuing citations, suspending or revoking licenses, and seeking administrative, criminal, and civil sanctions against violators. In FY 2007/08 CSLB obtained more than $35.2 million in ordered restitution for consumers.

The CSLB's Statewide Investigative Fraud Team (SWIFT) works to eliminate unlicensed contractors working in California. Undercover sting and sweep operations are conducted weekly around the state.

On this Web site you can find educational materials about hiring contractors and the construction process. You can also check the status of a contractor's license, find other important Contractors License Law information and file a complaint.
