I first found Ape Solar by looking on the FB marketplace for some used panels for a small trailer project I was working on. I got to talking with Joshua and mentioned I was looking at doing solar on the house. His eyes lit up and he started showing me his system at the time. We started talking prices and I realized this was definitely an achievable goal. A few months later my wife and I pulled the trigger and ordered our equipment. 36 650 watt panels, 3 EG4 12000XP inverters, and 5 EG4 interior wall mount batteries. Joshua and his wife delivered everything to my house and shortly after, the install began. I learned a lot throughout the process and every question or problem I faced, Josh was just a phone call away with a solution. The system is working flawlessly and I couldn’t be happier. This was a huge undertaking, but with the help of Ape Solar, it was a little less cumbersome. I couldn’t do it without them! Thanks for a great experience and hopefully many years of energy independence!
Kurt Clingan2 months agoGoogleApe Solar is an excellent company to work with. Their prices are extremely fair and Josh is very customer oriented. They truly care about getting people the systems they need at the best price without the runaround like so many of the door knocker solar companies out there. Customer service was excellent and we could not be happier with how our system turned out. I highly recommend this team for any solar needs, and we will definitely be back if and when we do.
Joshua Hinton4 months agoGoogleWe had an amazing experience with APE Solar in Gulf Breeze! They installed 48 solar panels and two batteries, and we couldn't be happier with the entire experience. The owners, Josh and Jennie, are absolutely wonderful! They are professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely care about their customers. They made the whole process smooth and stress-free. A special thank you to Chris from 850SolarServices, who did an outstanding job with the installation! His professionalism, attention to detail, and quality of work were truly impressive. It's refreshing to work with people who take pride in what they do and truly care about customer satisfaction. We highly recommend APE Solar and 850SolarServices to anyone considering going solar! Thank you, Josh, Jennie, and Chris, for such a great experience!
