I am having a hard time finding any credible information about the Tampa branch. Since there are many bad stories about companies installing solar panels, I would like to ask your thoughts and experiences.
Thank you,

I would echo another post in that you may be making a huge investment with questionable payback on a home that may not be your last - we just purchased our 2nd home and we had thought we would never move from our first one. I thing I've always wondered is how to solar panels (and solar water heating) affect roof replacement which is a real problem in FL. What has to be done when the roof needs to be replaced? Also - how do solar panels affect the resale value of your home - I would not look at a house with them. I'm not sure of the "saving the environment" aspect either with the mining and manufacture necessary and then the disposal.
