Solar Electric:
 |
Lower that monthly utility bill! There are incentives and rebates for solar power available that make going solar one of the soundest investments you can make. There are also great financing options available for residential solar electric systems. Your electric meter will actually run backwards while your home increases in value. |

Solar Thermal Hot Water
A Solar Hot Water system is the most energy efficient way to heat water - and hot water is the second largest energy user in your home. You can save $100s a year by switching. The average lifetime of a domestic water heater is 10-12 years. If your water heater is nearing the end of its life, now is the time to swtich!

Solar Electric - Return on Investment (ROI)
Whenever you read about solar panels, you’ll hear about your electric meter running backwards. This process is known as "‘net metering." What does this mean? Well, demand on the power grid is highest during the middle of the day; coincidentally, that’s when your solar panels are pulling in the most energy from the sun. So when demand on your utility company is high across the grid, you allow them to siphon extra energy produced by your panels to help support that demand. In return, they give you a credit on your utility bill or account. Those credits combined with what you’re personally saving by using solar power instead of the grid, will make up for your initial investment.
