Misleading Claims in Our Industry (And What Yes Solar Stands For)

If you are considering solar, you deserve clear answers and honest information. Every industry has businesses that compete on quality, and businesses that rely on misleading claims to get attention. 

We want to be clear about where we stand, set the record straight, and help customers make informed decisions based on facts.  

The facts about Yes Solar

Yes Solar has not filed for bankruptcy, nor are we closing our doors. We remain open, active, and focused on serving our customers. 

If you receive a text message or other outreach claiming to represent us, look closely at the sender. Official communication from our team should clearly identify Yes Solar and come through recognized channels. If you are unsure, contact us directly, and we will confirm whether the message is legitimate. 

Engineering and quality matter

A solar project is only as good as the people who design and install it. Strong engineering plans matter, but they do not replace proper workmanship, training, and attention to detail in the field. 

At Yes Solar, we work closely with a respected local structural engineer who specializes in solar projects and the project-specific details. This collaboration supports our commitment to safe, reliable, and well-executed installations. 

Our standards for certification and licensing

Yes Solar has held NABCEP company-level accreditation for more than a decade, one of the most respected names in solar professional certification, and reflects a commitment to ongoing standards, process, and accountability. 

We do not use subcontractors for our installations. Our work is handled by our own team, including licensed professionals who oversee installation quality. We believe customers should always review who will perform the work on their property and confirm that the proper licensing is in place. 

Solarize and local programs

Yes Solar has proudly participated in Solarize programs in our regionWhen terms like “Solarize” are used loosely, it can create confusion. We encourage customers to verify the details and compare companies based on verified participation, program details, and completed work. 

How to recognize misleading claims

Some outreach may sound helpful at first, but not every message is what it seems. Here are a few red flags to watch for: 

  • Content that is highly negative about another company but offers little proof.
  • Sponsored materials from one company use another company’s name and info.
  • Messages sound neutral but are sales tactics in disguise.
  • Claims are exaggerated, vague, or difficult to verify.
  • Fear-based language meant to create urgency instead of clarity.
  • Outreach that appears to come from one company while speaking poorly about another.

When you see any of these signs, it is worth checking the facts.

Why accuracy matters

False or misleading claims cause confusion, waste time, create stress, and make it harder for customers to make confident decisions.  

We have spent nearly two decades earning a positive reputation through hard work and integrity.  Serious statements should always be verified before they are believed or shared.   

At Yes Solar, we believe customers should compare companies based on real information, not rumors or pressure tactics.

  • Answer questions directly and respectfully.

  • Focus on our quality and solutions.
  • Stand behind our work.

Our view on competition

Healthy competition is a good thing. It pushes companies to improve, innovate, and deliver better service. 

But competition should be based on merit, not misinformation. We want to earn your trust by being dependable, transparent, and consistent. 

That is the standard Yes Solar holds itself to, and it is the standard we believe customers deserve from every company in our industry. 

Final thoughts

Yes Solar will continue to focus on what matters most: serving customers well, communicating honestly, and delivering quality work. 

We cannot control how others choose to present themselves or speak about us. We can control how we show up, and we will continue to choose professionalism, accuracy, and respect every time.
