Johnny was very responsive and very knowledgeable about my system. He installed a replacement inverter and noted a reverse polarity issue with the original installation that likely caused my problem. Good to have found someone local for service who knows what he’s doing! Thanks again!

Johnny Gains is extremely knowledgable, helpful, and good at what he does. Johnny sold me an upgrade to my existing system at a very fair price; I wish I had known about him at the time of my initial solar purchase. Not only was he fair in price, he was helpful by supplying me with the information I needed to decide for correct method and product to purchase for my upgrade. I did all of my own install but even then Johnny took time out of his extremely busy schedule to answer any questions I had to make for a proper install. After the install Johnny preformed an inspection and wrote a letter of approval with his certification number as a certified installer. I have used this letter for the approval with homeowners insurance and interconnection. Johnny helped me to upgrade from off-grid to a/c coupling. Johnny is truly professional and is concerned with more than padding his pocket. He is a family man who seems to have high moral values. If you are looking for a solar contractor that is knowledgable, fair, dependable, and safe for you and your family, then Johnny is your man. A good contractor does not brag about what he can do, he demonstrates by what he does; take a look a Johnny's videos.

Johnny at Gain Solar services really went out of his way to help me out on my project. My solar project is really small and not a big money maker for an installer. He basically helped me out of the kindness of his heart because he is a good guy. He really knows the products well and he will make sure your install is top notch. I highly recommend Gain Solar Services for your solar project. You won't be sorry.

Johnny installed 500 watts of solar panels on my short school bus aka schoolie. He did an absolutely perfect install. He also noticed the back door would not lock and he took his time after the solar installation to help secure my soon to be new home.
I would highly recommend Gain Solar Services.

Johnny was quickly available to evaluate my project and quoted a couple options. We decided on the 5KW option which he got underway quickly and we there on site through the entire project. He and his crew are thorough and remarkable. I highly recommend him if your planning a solar project. He will be doing my expansion in the next 12 months.

We took the plunge into solar February 2014. Between falling solar panel prices, federal rebates, and utility incentives we decided the time was right.
We got quotes from a number of companies and chose Gain Solar to put up our 10kw system. Owner Johnny Valentine made going solar a seamless transition from consulting through installation. His expertise, product knowledge and assistance were excellent every step of the way. One thing we greatly appreciated was the fact that Johnny was not only interested in helping us go solar, but made additional suggestions of ways we could reduce our energy consumption.
Johnny was always available via email or phone with any questions we had. He helped us work with our HOA for approval within the covenants. The panels and converters are of excellent quality and have good warranties. Output so far in the first seven months has met or exceeded expectations. One month our electric bill was reduced by 75%! Now we can’t wait for our electric bill to see how low it is. Crazy!
Gain Solar is a top notch company that we would recommend to anyone. From start to finish everyone involved was efficient and professional and the end result is that we have an amazing new solar system. Well done and thanks! Proud to be Solar!

If you "Want to be Off grid so bad" as we did then Gain Solar Services is hands down the company to go with. We Highly recommend Johny Valentine , founder of Gain Solar Services - uniquely qualified - Dual NABCEP Certified Engineer. His HANDS ON excellence in craftsmanship and execution is in deed rare. No large corporate "Gray Green" Sales tactics, checks and boxes cookie cutter "solutions" for the sake of quotas, just solid one on one Personal Engineering to suit Your need.
Having lived the Alternative energy dream for decades. Johnny uses facts and Return On Investment logic on a customer by customer basis. If your getting bids the lowest dollar per watt isn't always the right contractor. Best get one from the most experienced Solar and Battery Back Up systems integrator in the south east .
As a Veteran of 10 Years At&T Plant Engineering and 20+ years as a licensed low voltage contractor I've worked with a lot of elite "specialty contractors". You won't get that attitude with Gain Solar. In Closing: Be it conventional grid tied - totally off grid - or if you want the power to choose a Family energy security system in case of outage. Gain Solar is Pioneering (Distributed Generation and Storage) Solar Hybrid DC - AC Alternative energy systems that will change the way people think about , acquire and use energy 30 years from now.

Johnny Valentine with Gain Solar Services has been very helpful with everything that I have had a question with. He is very patient and always answers his phone. I purchased an inverter a year ago and I have not had any trouble out of it. I would recommend using Gain Solar Services.

I would highly recommend Gain Solar Services to any and everyone that is looking for solar solutions. They have the best service and prices that I found from anyone. Not only that, but they also take the time to explain the various options and systems available so that the average person can understand what they are purchasing. Their installers are polite and communicable as well. This company will be around for years to come in my opinion and if you have a question or problem, they answer you calls personally. Thanks Gain Solar Services!

I have a 7Kw grid tied system installed by Gain Solar Systems. I love it, Johnny worked with me to give me the exact system I wanted. I Am probably averaging around $60 to $70 a month, less on my electric bill. He can beat anyone's price on Labor and the equipment. Solar doesn't have to be so expensive!

I'm a long haul trucker and needed a solar system to keep my fridge, water pump and other loads running in case there was a power outage while I was on the road. In 2016, Gain Solar Services installed a Magnum inverter, 6 panels and 4 6v batteries. They got the job done in a timely manner and did high quality work. Johnny Valentine was extremely knowledgeable, very professional and answered all of my questions. Last year after a bad storm, the house was without grid power for 6 days,..but solar kept my fridge, well pump and lights running, no problem.
I will use them again in the future.
and highly recommend them.

Johnny and Chris are the best! Highly recommend! We asked them to set up an off the grid solar package for our Tiny Home. They promptly replied to our inquiry, came out within 24hrs to see what we needed and had the whole thing done within a week. They even worked with some equipment we had previously purchased. The best part is they are there for you even after the install to answer questions and to check how the system is working. So glad we went with Gain Solar Services! Couldn't be happier!
