It’s started! I got an estimate for $8,850 yesterday and am meeting with our contractor on the 25th to submit my down payment/go over logistics. We will be using the same panels/inverters/mounting system and once again, I’ll be doing the majority of the work. My contractor will handle materials, WE energies related documents, permits, and electrical hook up. I’ll do the Focus on Energy rebate paperwork which has begun again at the same price point ($700/KW installed). It looks like the Federal Govt. will be continuing their 30% tax writeoff too which should bring my installed costs down significantly.
My biggest concern right now is how to keep the wasps from building nests in the garage rafters once I pull the soffit boards to make installing the lowest cross-beams possible…
more to come!
