    I hired Under the Sun Solar and Electric to upgrade my subpanel per the new California code. It was a quick and easy process. They were very easy to communicate with throughout, from the scheduling the install, passing inspection, to the documentation they could provide so that I could send it off to my HOA. The install was very quick and neat, and they made sure to leave everything spotless after themselves.

    We recently had our old panel replaced and the whole experience was great from start to finish. The crew was easy to work with, answered all of our questions, and kept everything neat and organized throughout the install. The new panel looks amazing and works perfectly. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing a panel upgrade.

    I'd highly recommend Under The Sun for your solar needs. I recently had 10 additional panels added to boost the production of my existing system. Mark and Paul were very responsive and easy to work with. They also worked with me to ensure a clean installation making sure no ugly conduit was exposed and completed the entire install process in a single day. It’s rare to find contractors that are this professional and prompt.

    Electrical issues can range from minor inconveniences to serious safety hazards. If you’re experiencing flickering lights, tripping breakers, dead outlets, or unexplained power loss, professional troubleshooting is critical to identify the root cause, not just treat the symptom.

    Electrical problems often indicate wiring issues, overloaded systems, failing breakers, or aging panels.


    Electrical Issues in Older Citrus Heights Homes

    • A burning smell near outlets or your panel
    • Sparks when plugging something in
    • Repeated breaker trips
    • Warm outlets or switches
