Adding Solar pros and cons so far
Hey everyone!!
I am adding solar to my home for a few reasons.
1. To get away from the corrupt company called FPL who now runs the areas power.
2. To add value to my home
3. To prevent lose of power if a hurricane or anything else knocks out the grid
4. Possibly make some money if they buy it back.
Pros
- Have added value to my property and I hope to transfer most if not all of the loan to whoever buys it
- I know have a battery run my house with if power goes out
- I will not have to pay the ever increasing price for power which i love!
- No longer constantly turning power off behind me when other leave it on
- Getting my power from a cleaner source
Cons
- FPL has done everything they can to delay the process
- For the time I have some new debt
Tips for those going solar or thinking about it
verify the upgrades, techs had some issues the inspector told them to finish before passing and due to myself asking him to go after everything I know have a very safe system
techs did not know about some local codes due to them being out of county contractors so that had some complications
call power company to verify process, there was miscommunication and the request for inspection which is needed to turn my power back on was not submitted. If I did not call I would have gone a lot longer without power
These are my reason for going solar has anyone ever had issues with their solar?
