We used Sun PPM out of Gainesvilles and were fairly pleased with their professionalism, estimates and execution. For us, we had a new roof and a sizeable tax bill for 2021 so the tax credit was crucial to making this a worthwhile endeavor although we did like the idea of the environmental concerns as well.
As many have stated, and I don’t entirely disagree - it’s certainly a toss up for long term cost savings - we paid cash for the tax credit portion and financed the rest which is basically close to the amount we would have paid for our monthly bill already. Most months we have small or no bill from Oct-May or so.
Biggest factors to consider - a) size of system vs. what you need and can export back to grid to make this financially feasible, b) age of roof for us was a factor, c) do you have a tax liability the credit will help with…. And are you paying cash or financing?
Not sure if this help - Respectfully, DB
