The last time I had a service question I contacted Matt Fox. Although it was not his job, he contacted us and told us what the problem was. I this case it was a HECO issue. Matt was able to put our minds to ease and sure enough the problem worked itself out just like Matt told us it would. That is good customer support.

“We are very pleased … Most impressed with installation, follow ups after installation to educate us on use of the system, how to review data and what measures to take to reduce energy consumption. Very professional and knowledgeable staff.”

-Saman D.

“Moving into solar usage was without a doubt the single most impactful thing to me regarding my home. I can’t imagine living in my home without it. Working with Shaun Lopez personally was extremely easy, convenient, and very educational. Shaun clearly laid out all the details surrounding any of the many inquiries I had as my learning of solar energy grew. Years later, I am absolutely satisfied with my entire system and am certain I will never live in a home that doesn’t use solar energy.” 

-Ian Walsh, Maui Homeowner, Professional Surfer,

“Our project started during the pandemic and was completed without difficulties. Matt Fox always kept us updated on the schedule and was always prompt at returning emails and phone calls. Very professional and patient with all my questions. I’ve reached out several times with continued questions after the project was complete, he always contacted me or emailed if there would be a delay in getting back to me. I can’t say enough good things about … our project manager, Matt Fox. He’s a keeper and represents the company 100%.”

-Kim T.

“Putting solar up at the Volcom Pipe Houses was made easy with Shaun and the Rising Sun team. Shaun was so patient, always there, always thorough, always clear and honest, reliable for sure, and it always felt like he always had our best interest in mind. In the end, he and the Rising Sun team made the experience a really good one and were great partners in helping to get the story out there post-installation. From the earliest meetings to the RFP process to the agreement, installation, and then maintenance, nothing but high marks for Shaun and the team.”

– Derek Sabori, Sustainability Educator and Consultant, The Underswell. Former VP of Sustainability at Volcom

“My company, Pitzer Built Construction specializes in custom luxury homes on Maui. We have worked with Shaun Lopez … for over a decade. They are my “go to” team for any renewable energy projects wanted by my high-profile clients. They are fully integrated from the first RFP down to the last inspection and servicing and warranty of the PV energy system. I have always been highly impressed by both their work ethic and quality of work. I would recommend them to anyone doing a renewable energy project.”
