Solar Array Testimonial

Glad I was told about using solar

For those who are wondering whether or not to have solar panels placed on your roof top or somewhere on your property, I say do it ........it's worth it!  My electric bill is small enough ( .17 to 34.86 per month) to pay a small amount to the electric company giving me a credit.  I then pay a monthly amount into a electric account.  This increasing account plus the amount received from the sun into this account (SREC) will pay off the original Solar construction bill in 6 to 10 years.  This depends on how much money you put away when you don't have to pay the electric company.   One more thing.  This becomes your "Electric Account"!  Need a refrigerator or washer and dryer? Hot water heater?  Anything electric ..... take it from the "Electric Account" while money is building.  One more thing, ever wonder why solar panels are being placed on top of utility poles?  Electric Co.'s are smart!
