Q: What is your average electric bill after goingsolar

Our total cost for energy in 2013 was $48.59 compared to $2,851.05 which was what we typically paid annually before going solar. 

 

Q: Is there anything else we should know? 

Needless to say, we are delighted. If you know of another investment that has this kind of payout year after year, I'd like to know about it. 

If you would like to learn more about going solar there will be a free Fountain Valley Solar Workshop on Saturday May 31st from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Fountain Valley Senior Center.
