Ive been looking for a dorum discussion panel that I could get answers from. its going to take some getting use too.have a wonderful day. 

Anybody who attended her panel at BPCON2022 would have seen both her knowledge and passion.Nobody is perfect. 

Our electric job consist of: New 150 panel - rewire entire house A-Z finishing - LED recess ceiling lights- All finished outlet/switches and plate covers...

The main electrical panel is located in the same closet as the hot water heater and I'm wondering if we are going to have issues come inspection time.

Wow.With regard to the Solar panels, since you did not take the tax credit, did you look into the cost vs sales price?  

where is the electrical panel located? 

The city came out to inspect for point of sale and decided that they missed the electrical panel being a federal pacific panel, my contractor failed to tell me this, so I had to have the panel replaced, profit now $2k.

If you take one down (but please don't do that yet), it's similar material to the 2'x4' drop ceiling panels you can get today, but a little thinner.The problem is that some of these tiles contained the all-purpose miracle material, asbestos. 

I would contract a HVAC guy for bid for system, a electrician for separate panels / meters. and a Plumber for separate water heater and  gas meters if needed. before you submit a  bid.

For a recessed panel, square, painted white cabinet + install their total price was lower than Home Depot, Lowes, and the one other local shop I tried (Limpus Cabinets).
