Can anyone tell me what benefits we might get by installing now as opposed to waiting, since we won't be there to monitor any problems. Has anyone had a moisture problem in the attic (stains on ceilings?) or any other problems before installing a fan and have that problem solved? Who would you recommend, Solar Guys, Solar Lights and More, or someone else? And finally, should i even consider standard electric?

We had 2 installed by Solar Guys, very professional and neat. $800+ but the investment should pay for itself over time. We're part timer's but where there 1/2 of July moving in and electric bill was $113. I'm assuming fans helped with A/C usage.
