About Alcor Solar

Alcor Solar is a veteran contractor in Contra Costa County, bringing 37 years of licensed experience to the solar heating industry. The company specializes in solar pool heating systems and has maintained an active license status throughout its decades of operation.

Alcor Solar carries workers compensation insurance and maintains a $25,000 bond, providing financial protection if work is not completed as agreed. This level of bonding offers homeowners recourse in the event of contract disputes or incomplete projects.

Operating from Concord, the company serves the Contra Costa County area with solar pool heating installations and system maintenance. With nearly four decades in the field, Alcor Solar has developed expertise in evaluating roof conditions for optimal panel placement and sizing systems appropriately for residential pools. The company has maintained relationships with some customers across multiple decades, handling initial installations, updates during roof replacements, and ongoing service needs. As an established business in a specialized niche, Alcor Solar focuses exclusively on solar thermal systems for pool heating rather than photovoltaic solar panels for electricity generation.

What Customers Say

Alcor Solar has served customers with solar pool heating installations spanning multiple decades, with some families returning for updated systems and maintenance over 20-30 year periods. People report effective heating performance, with pool temperatures reaching 80-85 degrees during spring, summer, and fall months when systems are properly installed. The company conducts roof surveys to determine optimal panel locations and system sizing before installation.

Customer experiences vary significantly regarding scheduling and communication practices. Some people describe professional service and successful referrals to others, while others report challenges with appointment timing, lack of advance notice for service calls, and perceived unprofessionalism in interactions. Service responsiveness and communication style appear to be inconsistent areas based on customer feedback.
