Take the first step to renewable energy

With utility costs on the rise, more and more San Diego homeowners are turning to renewable energy sources like the sun. If you own your home and plan on living there for at least the next 10 years, and you pay an average of over $100/month in utility bills, you are the perfect candidate for solar. 

Free yourself from being dependent on the utility company and install a new solar system with the experts at Guthrie & Sons Heating, Cooling & Solar. 

Powered by SunPower

Living in Southern California, San Diego has an average of 262 days of sunshine per year. Powering your home with renewable energy is a no-brainer. Guthrie & Sons is proud to partner with SunPower, offering the most innovate and reliable solar power technology. With clean, minimalistic designs and an improved technology, SunPower panels have an extra layer within in the back side of each panel, allowing some of the sun’s light to be reflected back into the solar cell, which helps to generate even more energy.

Our Solar Installation Process

STEP ONE

DETERMINING SYSTEM SIZE

We’ll first ask you to provide us with a copy of your utility bill so we can determine your expected energy usage. We will also ask if you plan on making home improvement upgrades that may affect your usage, such as a new heating and air system or a new EV charger.

The size of your solar system will be determined by your energy usage. We want to be sure to size your system a little more than what your home typically consumes.

STEP TWO

SITE SURVEY

After we determine the proper system size for your family’s needs, we will come out and conduct a site survey. During a site survey, we’ll do an inspection of the home, evaluate the layout of the electrical wiring, and determine a plan of action for the installation. 

STEP THREE

INSTALLATION PROCESS

Depending on the size of your solar system, the installation typically only takes one day. Our certified solar technicians will first start with precisely measuring your roof and installing the racks which the panels will lay on. Next, the electrical wiring will be installed and connected to your electrical panel. Finally, your solar panels will be set into place on the racks. 

STEP FOUR

FINAL PERMITS AND
APPROVAL TO OPERATE

After your solar system is installed and before you start reaping the benefits, you must receive your final permit from the county and a final approval from the utility company to operate your system. 

Rest assured, we will take care of the final permitting and approval process with the utility company on your behalf.

 

EV Charger Installation

With gas prices on the rise, San Diego homeowners are turning to electric cars. Enjoy the convenience of charging your vehicle at home with a residential EV charger. 

Book an appointment for a quote to install your EV charger. 

Battery Back Up

Pair your solar system with a battery back up from Guthrie & Sons. When you have a power outage, your battery back up system allows you to control which appliances you want to remain powered. The next time a storm rolls through, you’ll have peace of mind knowing you can continue powering your appliances.

I’ve been with Guthrie & Sons since 2008. They installed my new unit and have serviced it twice a year ever since. Something has changed and not for the better. Most notable in communication. After a service visit I received several quotes for further work, mind you no call made during the visit to notify me of these items. New quotes also include a $95 visit fee! If I’m already paying for the initial visit why would you leave without speaking to me if more work was recommended? I called the number on the email that specifically said “if you have questions”. Needless to say the person who answered “Amy” couldn’t provide one single thing of information regarding my visit and I have to speak to the technician. She was politely dismissive and just kept referring me to the technician. This isn’t the level of service I’ve had in the past and not sure I can stay if this is the new standard.

They offered a very competitive price for a much higher SEER unit and they were efficient, clean and informative completing the removal and install of the new unit in one day. I am also very happy with the Bosh unit they recommended and installed.
