      We have a solar system that was purchased with the home we bought in February. This system is under warranty and had a broken inverter unit the previous owners got someone to start repairs in March. In April a Powur PBC subcontractor came out to finish the repairs and arked the system and burned out the inverter making the whole solar system useless. Powur PBC scheduled repairs for July 6th, which the contractor could not fulfil at the time because he had to get Powur to authorize the replacement inverter. I was contacted by our regional rep to confirm it was ordered and to expect repairs done mid July. Since then there has been no update calls to schedule anything or status updates. We contact the company weekly and we're getting no responses. We are also suppose to get offset credits for the months our solar system is down that otherwise would be generated from our system. I've submitted all my bills per their instruction and also have not gotten any updates on that. It has been nearly half a year now and the same repair still has not been made. I am growing suspicious of them running down the clock to weasel out of their own warranty.

      Hi ****,

      Thank you for taking time out of your day to bring this to our attention. We apologize for the experience you had with our team. We set a high standard for ourselves, and were disappointed to hear you didnt experience this level of work ethic. We have alerted the Operations Manager and the Project Manager assigned to your project to resolve this situation with a solution that you find fair and that meets your expectations.

      The necessary part has now been secured, and our service partner is contacting you to schedule an appointment to replace the part and inspect the system.

      If you need support with something else in the meantime, you can get in touch with us directly at **************************************** If the case is so that we are able to resolve the issue for you, we'd greatly appreciate your considering revising online review(s) you may have posted to reflect that is the case. For that we would be grateful. 

      Thank you.
