Sreelatha & Dinesh inhabitants of Raja Rajeshwari Nagar, Bangalore – We are the proud owners of Solar Rooftop PV system of 2.8 kwp and experience the benefits since December 2018.
The thought process began more than 2 years ago for the need to install a Rooftop Solar System. How do we harvest the natural resources? We had installed the Rooftop Water Solar Heating System in the year 2003 and had experienced the benefits of Solar powered hot water; except for a few days in the year, steaming hot water would always flow from our taps.
The exercise of identification of a vendor began in June 2016. We contacted a few vendors. Couple of site visits were made. Quotes obtained. Costs looked high. Detailing missing. Interest lacked between both the parties (Vendors and Us). The idea went on to the cold storage.
The idea of owning the Solar Rooftop did not die. It was retrieved from the cold storage with fresh vigour in September 2017. The same process followed. This time we decided to look out for new companies who were into this business. We identified two such vendors. One of them is Eco Soch.
I was surfing the net and this name Eco Soch popped up. I remember one Saturday visiting their Office to find out if they are real 😊. I travel to their Bangalore Office at Sahakarnagar and get a full understanding of what the company does, their various installations, the different types – on grid, off grid.
During the last week of October, we obtain the quotes from both the companies and see their respective installations and finally the decision made that we would go with Eco Soch. It was at this point of time, we engage with two wonderful people Mr. Gopikrishna and Mr. Samant. Being conservative, we get a quote for 1.4 kwp. We then request the team to visit the site and offer us their recommendations. Mr. Gopikrishna visits the site and offers us the benefits of the space and the recommendations to go for a 3 kwp system.
I was on a medical leave and decided to utilise this opportunity to get the system installed in the last week of December 2018. We had put pressure on the team to have this installed in less than 15 days. The site conditions also not perfect. There had to be a shifting of the solar water heater to give way for this structure. We had given the entire responsibility to the team as it is difficult to find service providers for small activities.
Appreciate the entire process of Eco-Soch in-terms of their designing and giving the minute details of the project well before commencement. Based on the inputs, we could visualize how the end product would look as the drawings looked so real. The pace was set. It began with their recommended fabricator who did a fabulous job in fabricating the structure in 2 days time. The other activities soon followed. The precision with which each activity has been done needs special mention. The execution of the project and the dedication put in by Samant & team needs to be acknowledged. Never felt that we were doing a project @ Home with no inconveniences. The big bit of liaising with Government Officials is troublesome but this activity too has been well orchestrated. The installation of bi-directional meter and explaining us about this was one Sunday session for our understanding.
Thank You Eco Soch. You have a great team with dedication, the quality of work reflects at Site. For people like us who are busy and have no time to get into details you are a boon to us. Continue your good work and enrich this planet by adding more people like us into this community of Solar Harvesting. Post installation lot of people in my area are interested and we continue to spread word and market your product. Best Wishes to a great team at Eco Soch. 😊
