Northern Arizona Solar (NAZ) was totally solid with me when they warranty replaced a Victron 24V 1200VA Phoenix inverter.
Have you told them that !?Thank you.
I'll try that.
I'd just go there and talk to them but the ABQ store is 170 miles away.
YesHave you told them that !?
I would have done that too, but never got a quote.I called my local greentech (Arlington Tx), sent him an email of what I need , Ironridge mounting parts. he sent me a quote. I went in the next day and paid and picked them up. was in and out in 20 mins.
I like this place.
I did this at the Hayward location. Actually I got reply from San Jose and Hayward (San Jose sent me to Hayward for what I wanted).> I called my local greentech (Arlington Tx), sent him an email of what I need , Ironridge mounting parts. he sent me a quote.

I was able to go to my local Greentech earlier this year, got a list of panels they had available in the warehouse with the wattage I needed, went home and reviewed the ones they had, narrowed it down, and went back to them. They let me go into the warehouse with them to look at the label on the back of the panels, after which I purchased them, and they loaded up my truck. (My wife and I secured them.)
I'd rather not order the panels online due to horror stories I have heard with damage. No complaints.
How did you approach the conversation?I called the Seattle and Bellingham locations and they don’t sell to DIYers here.
Called and asked if they sold to the public or if I needed a licensed resale permit. They referred me to Fire Mountain Solar or Backwoods Solar. I just wanted to buy racking and compare module prices to Signature. Found Iron Ridge racking locally and all the connectors are available at Platt. Just going to buy modules from Signature Solar when I order the mini-split.How did you approach the conversation?
They also do quotes by email. I just emailed them in a no nonsense way about the exact racking I needed and got hardware for mounting my last two panels (had ran out)
I see, ok.Called and asked if they sold to the public or if I needed a licensed resale permit. They referred me to Fire Mountain Solar or Backwoods Solar.

Yeah I did see a few postings on Craigslist of new module pallets that people are selling but the price is often more than getting everything from signature, plus I don’t know if a cash deal works for the tax rebate. Good points, my wife has an interior design business license/permit which I mentioned but they didn’t seem interested in anything but repeat solar business sales. It’s not a bad thing, just limits local options for suppliers in this area.
