Damian S. (Cornelius): Prestige performed excellent installing our solar. I obtained 4 bids from 4 installers and Prestige Power Systems came out on top. The estimate from Prestige was in the correct price rage when factoring system size & quality of equipment. They listened to exactly what i wanted and did not try to up-sell. The install began ahead of our agreed schedule. I would recommend them over Blue Raven any sunny day. I plan on using Prestige Power Systems again in the future. Google Review
Connie C. (Oregon City): The staff at Prestige Power were ALL very helpful. They did their very best to accommodate my schedule for different inspections that had to be done requiring someone to be home. One time when I couldn't be home, they were able to come to my house and meet the inspector for me, as luck would have it they were working on another house close by that day. They worked with me to figure out the best financing that was right for me, monthly payments and terms to help me make my decision. They have been wonderful in assisting me with all the paperwork that goes with getting my taxes in order so I can maximize my tax refund as well as the Energy Incentive Rebate. If something changed, which it did, and I was quoted a larger Energy Rebate than what was offered by the time my panels were installed, they honored what they had originally told me and wrote off the difference.
According to PGE, the equipment I have is state-of-the-art.
I am thrilled with the looks of the panels as well, I was expecting metal frames around them, but they are sleek and solid black. I was a little worried about how my house/roof would look, but I am very happy, they look nice.
So far so good - I'm generating electricity to greatly reduce my electric bill right now in these first month having them online, and it's winter with fewer hours of daylight. Since I chose to get enough panels, after going through the upcoming summer, I am looking forward to building up a enough credits each year to pay for all my electric needs throughout my retirement. This is an investment into my future.
I thank Prestige Power so much for being a company that I highly recommend. In fact they came highly recommended by a friend of mine, who is very happy as well. Google Review
Jennifer H. (Milwaukie): I cannot even express how wonderful Prestige Power Systems has been to work with. Tamara has been so patient with me, always available to answer all of my questions and emails. And Sean and his crew did an amazing job on the install. My solar looks so much nicer than others in my neighborhood! They even took their shoes off without asking before entering my home, which spoke volumes to me. Super respectful crew. To top it off, they blew the other bid that I had gotten out of the water! I couldn't be happier that I chose to work with them, and I love the fact that I am supporting a local business as well.

Eliot M. (Beavercreek): My installation was unique - instead of the typical "on a house roof, connected to the house's main panel" mine is on a barn, with multiple meters on the property and with no existing service in the barn. Prestige Power was able to do critical things: 1) listen to my needs and preferences and 2) Provide appropriate solutions. You might think its better to go with a large company for your solar install, but I chose a small company because the decision making/problem solving was limited to three people - me, Tamara the owner, and Sean the electrician - and had no car-sale stink at any time. I got the install I needed, done well. I will certainly contact them again for service or to expand the array onto new buildings. Google Review
Jill M. (Milwaukie): In October of 2017, I had Prestige Power design and install a full solar panel system on my roof. They did a wonderful job determining what my power needs were from my PGE bill and also getting it to fit within my budget. I highly recommend them to everyone. A friend if mine took my advice and has already had a solar panel system installed on her roof. Google Review
Haylin T. (Keizer): The wonderful customer services provided by Prestige Power Systems showed the utmost levels of quality care and integrity. My project was completed on time, within budget with nearly zero disruptions. Communications throughout were awesome; proposals, submissions, applications and confirmations to PGE, DOR and ENERGY TRUST were done electronically. My questions were always responded to promptly and thoughtfully whether by phone, email or text. Prestige ensured completeness and accuracy in submitting official documents on my behalf. Prestige was flexible and worked to accommodate my schedule and also gave periodic status reports throughout the entire project. I very much enjoyed working with Prestige’s amazing team and would not hesitate hire them again! Google Review
Lee A. (Portland): It was great to work with a Sean and Tamara and their crew at Prestige Power for the installation of our solar array. They were reasonably priced and did all of the work when they said they would and with minimal inconvenience to us. I would highly recommend the company to anyone considering using solar power. Google Review
Nimisha G. (Portland): I really enjoyed working with Tamara; she was very responsive to my many questions (including working up three different specs for me). Prestige Power also were very competitive in their pricing, and had the BEST customer service out of all my inquiries. I would highly recommend Prestige Power if you are planning on putting solar panels on your roof! The work is impeccable, and the service is truly great! Google Review
George C. (Eugene): We bought and installed our solar system this March. The process of buying and installing the system was quite easy. Google Review
Andrew K. (Portland): Great experience working with these highly rated professionals. My father-in-law recommended them; probably the best advice he ever gave me. They were very easy to work with, not pushy like some of the other companies out there - they even helped us lock in affordable financing (not provided through their company at the time of this review). The job looks great and is working beautifully. Google Review
Cathy and Bob S. (Happy Valley): This company is competent and friendly, and will go out of their way to please a customer. We kept their sign up in our yard for two months, we were so pleased with the work and service. Google Review
Kellen R. (Oregon City): Prestige Power is amazing. I got many quotes on my solar panel job and not only found them to be affordable but also the most knowledgeable. They were able to build me a higher capacity system than others thought possible. They worked around my schedule and get the install done quickly and ahead of projections. That was about 5 months ago, all expectations have been met or exceeded. I would recommend them to anyone! Google Review
Tom and Stephanie S. (Portland): Prestige Power Systems was outstanding. to work with.
Putting Solar on over a 100 year home took some good planing they were able to add the full system that was not viable from the street.. Design and instillation, was done with no stress. Nice to have the direct contact with the people you deal with no surprises. They are able to walk you the full process. We fully understand our system. Thank you Tamara and Sean. A big job well done. Google Review
Tristan M. (Lake Oswego): Tamara and Prestige Power are top notch! From initial proposal to the final de-briefing, they worked tirelessly to address all of my needs and concerns. The project moved quickly and Tamara was able to answer all my questions with ease.
I really couldn't be happier with the way things went. They gave me a cost estimate right away, based on my power usage and were knowledgeable about all the different options available.
The effort I had to put in as far as permitting and dealing with red tape was minimal. Tamara was able to navigate the whole thing for me without a hitch. Every step of the way my expectations were exceeded.
While writing this review, I went back through my email thread and realized that we had about 65 emails back and forth, always fast, but very thorough.
At the end of the project, Tamara drove 20 miles out to my house to personally deliver the site map, system manual, and to make sure I was comfortable with my system. This is the kind of customer service that has become rare today.
I whole-heartedly recommend Prestige Power for your next solar installation. Google Review
Kevin R. (Happy Valley): You can expect great communication and good/efficient work from Prestige. They took care of every detail, from tax rebates to working with our HOA to get the project approved. Great, local company. You won't be disappointed. Google Review
Thomas G. (Salem)
"Perfect. That's the best way to describe my experience dealing with Tamara and Sean at Prestige Power. Today (Aug 29) I got my NetMeter installed and my 11.7 KW system started generating power and $ flawlessly. There are a lot of solar installers to choose from, (I researched many of them) and if you choose Prestige you will NOT be disappointed. They are price-competitive, they provide the best information to back up their quotes, they stay on schedule, and they do what they say they will do every step of the way. I can't think of any suggestions to improve the level of service I received from Prestige. Thank you very much Tamara and Sean, it has been a real pleasure working with you!" Google Review
Keith and Paula H. (Bend)
We recently had a 40 panel solar system installed by Prestige Power Systems. We could not be happier with the installation and experience. The Prestige team, led by Tamara, took care of all the permitting, documentation necessary for incentives and paperwork related to county, state, federal and HOA requirements. Their related diagrams, documentation and attention to detail exceeded requirements in each case. The quality of the panels, connections, inverters and power supplies were top of the line and Prestige workmanship was perfect. Sean went beyond expectations, assuring penetrations were double sealed, most efficient and aesthetic connections were made, and conduits were painted to match interior and exterior walls. He literally went “extra miles” to assure every component and remote monitoring capability functioned appropriately, making inspections a breeze. Net metering is indicating we are currently sending much more to the grid than we consume. I highly recommend Prestige Power for solar installation! They are a delight to work with! They assured my part of establishing our system was effortless, they deliver as promised and exceeded my expectations in every respect. Google Review
Jennifer D. (Happy Valley)
We are so happy that we've finally taken the leap to install solar. We researched a lot of leasing companies and decided to purchase our system instead. Tamara, Sean and their team were absolutely wonderful to work with. From start to finish, we were extremely impressed with their professionalism and making us feel like valued customers. When the inspectors came for their final inspections, they even remarked on the clean installation and overall workmanship. Highly recommend Prestige Power Systems! Google Review
Craig L. (Happy Valley)
Nearly a year ago a neighbor was getting Solar installed from Prestige Power Systems. I walked down the street and Sean was on sight with his crew. He took the time to talk to me about what it entails and what are the advantages of Solar Power. Soon after I met Tamara at the Farmers Market and after talking with her I was completely sold. It was a no brainer IMO to own my system and not lease. I wanted the tax breaks, I wanted the increase in home value that an owned system can bring.
I knew I wanted Sean and PPS to design and install my system. This spring I was ready to take the plunge and contacted Tamara. She came out and gave me several different options depending on what WE wanted to achieve on power savings. I ended up with 28 panels and an 8.4 kw system. No pressure. Changes I requested after the initial contract was signed were easily fixed. The process was very systematic and I literally had to do nothing. They take care of everything!! I know they will be there for me down the road answering any questions or concerns. Now that I have been operational for nearly 3 weeks I am seeing the system generating quite a bit more than I am using. Cant wait to get my electric bill.
I almost forgot to mention that there were 3 inspections after installation. The city, county and Energy Trust I believe. I was there for each inspection and each of the guys said Prestige Power Systems are well known for the quality of their work. I could tell the Inspectors had a lot of respect for them. Google Review

Thorough, responsive, skilled, and professional are words to describe Prestige Power Systems. We recommend them without hesitation for your solar installation. With Prestige Power Systems, you feel like your project is the most important to them. This matters when you are making this type of investment. 5 STARS for Prestige Power Systems! Google Review
Adam D. (Clackamas)
Sean and Tamara did an excellent job on our solar install. Process was very smooth and Sean was able to do some additional unrelated electrical work for us at a reasonable cost. Both of them and their team are knowledgeable, friendly, and laid back.
They are a small business based in Happy Valley and the panels they installed are manufactured in Hillsboro, so it was an added bonus to find a company where we can support local businesses. Google Review
Justin and Catrina K. (Happy Valley)
We were reviewing may different options for a solar provider and were referred to Prestige Power Systems from a neighbor who provided us great reviews of his experience. We met Tamara who instantly provided us the unbiased information we were looking. Her experience and knowledge of the industry and regulatory landscape quickly provided us the easy decision to partner with them in our solar installation. We have a very busy schedule and between Tamara and Sean, the process was painless. The paperwork, approvals and installation was efficient and informative. We went from agreement to producing solar power in such a quick timeline, I was shocked. Professional all the way! I would recommend Prestige Power to anyone who asks me. We are already producing more power than we use as discussed, couldn't be happier, Thanks Tamara and Sean. Google Review

“Tamara showed us a system that had the incentives paying for 90% of the total system cost. The system will pay for itself in three years and the equipment comes with 25 year warranties." Customer Quote
Mike F. (Happy Valley)
"This Solar company is top notch. Their financing model will have us breaking even in 4 years and then we're making money on the panels. Also, they're super easy to work with, and they keep their word when it comes to customer satisfaction. In our case, we felt the roof-top conduit run was too visible, so they rerouted it inside our attic on their own dime. They walked us through the entire process from the beginning, keeping us informed all along the way. Highly recommended." Yelp/ Google Review

"The ETO inspector came by this afternoon and we passed with flying colors. He was also very complimentary about the craftsmanship of the work and said it was one of the best installs he's seen. Major kudo's to you and your team!" Customer Email
Shannon C. (Happy Valley)
Prestige Power Systems just completed installing our 4.35 kW solar system, and we couldn't be more excited to start using it! We have used Sean and Tamara's expertise in the past, and it was an easy choice to choose their company to install the solar panels on our new home. The Manzo's are fantastic to work with, and are available and helpful through every step of the solar process. The free consultation is informative, without any pressure. Tamara presents multiple options for the system, keeping your family priorities in mind. Once we selected the option that worked best for us, Prestige Power took care of the paperwork for permits, HOA approvals, and Energy Trust credits. They were attentive and kept in contact with us throughout the entire process, even adjusting and flexing their schedule when our HOA approval took longer than anticipated. Sean and his crew were efficient in installing the panels, and were most respectful of our home and property. The hardest part of the process is waiting for PGE to give us final approval to start using the system! I would recommend Prestige Power Systems for any of your solar needs - no matter how big or small. Their integrity and quality of work is amazing! Thank you Sean and Tamara!! Yelp Review

Steve D. (Happy Valley)
I had a good experience working with Prestige. Sean was able to get the systems main wiring well hidden like I had requested. The job was completed in a timely manner and the quality of the installation was great. I was also glad to give the work to a local company right in my neighborhood. Corporations aren't people, Sean and Tamara are! Yelp Review/Google Review
David R. (Hillsboro)
I worked with several other solar installation companies before deciding to work with Prestige Power Systems. They went above and beyond to get my system up and running on a timeline that would work for me, but the quality of the installation is still top notch. They are professional, easy to work with and use high quality components. I would recommend Prestige Power to anyone looking to install a solar system, and plan to work with them in the future on other projects. Yelp Review

Marie H. (Happy Valley)
We had a fantastic experience with Prestige Power Systems. We got solar panels installed on our Happy Valley home in December 2015 (began the process in October because it takes some time to get all the government signoffs) and they were great every step of the way. They usually came out to do work on weekends to fit with our work schedule and answered any questions we had (and there were a ton) within 24 hours. Both Tamara and Sean were super friendly and great to work with and I'd absolutely recommend them to anyone thinking about installing solar in the area. After the federal and state credits and the PGE incentive, the process was extremely affordable. Tamara was able to compile a energy report for us using our PGE bill to show how much we would save and what the dollar and production figures would be using different size systems. We felt no pressure to purchase more panels than we wanted and felt like we were getting quality materials. During our sunny days I am always excited to check and see that day's production on the system interface in our garage. All in all, a great experience. Google Review
Jan T. (Salem)
We hired Prestige Power Systems to do a large solar installation at our home. They were a great company to work with! They came when they said they would, worked hard, cleaned up after themselves and did the job as promised (and then some!) Sean and his employees were polite, friendly, and professional. We NEVER had any worries about having them in our home and on our property. We would hire them again, and again!

You’ve got to go with Prestige Power Systems if you are thinking about getting solar! Tamara has been so wonderful to work with, always available to answer all of my questions and emails. Sean and his crew did an wonderful job on the install. PGE had made a mistake on swapping the meter and ended it up breaking our inverter, but Tamara and Sean went ahead and ordered a new one and installed it for us right away! Professional, Responsible and affordable! Highly recommend Prestige Power Systems! Google Review
Cory P. (Portland)
Great company to work with. I found them at our local street fair and they helped us design a solar power system and installed it for us. Very easy to work with. They take care of everything. They even found an inverter that will allow us to get some power during a power outage. We love watching our power meter run backward! Google Review
David T. (Happy Valley)
Best solar company in the business. I couldn't be happier! I first had a bid from a large solar installer which seemed reasonable but I decided to shop around anyway to see if anyone could beat the price. Then I found Tamara and Sean who gave a super competitive number but were also very professional and organized. I would have went with them even if their price was higher, because they are local, small business, and such a pleasure to work with. If thinking about going solar, this is the company to use, no question! Google Review
Philip L. (Happy Valley)
We recently had solar panels installed on our house by Prestige Power Systems, Happy Valley Oregon.We are very impressed with all aspects of the installation process. From the very beginning when we talked to Tamara Manzo, the owner of the company, we felt that we were dealing with a very professional company. We received thorough and timely information of the various choices of systems and when we decided on a system, Tamara Manzo guided us through the process of all the paperwork. She responded to questions in a very timely and effective manner and we never felt left alone with the project. Her husband Sean Manzo oversaw the actual installation. This was done in a very professional manner and everything looks neat and tidy.
There were no messes or damage to the property after the installation process was completed. Sean Manzo was super helpful with the technical aspects of getting the system up and running. We will highly recommend this company for solar panel installation. They are great!
