| IMPROVE YOUR GREEN I.Q. |
| DOES SOLAR WORK? |
Many real estate specialists believe a solar system is
the number one home improvement.
Electricity prices are going up on average of 6% each
year, and since the utilities don't give you back money
on the electricity you use, doesn't it make sense to
invest in a solar system that produces electricity and
can pay for itself in as little as three years?
Solar isn't experimental. Most solar panels are
guaranteed for up to 25 years, and inverters are
guaranteed for up to 15 years.
Solar systems have virtually no moving parts. Why is
that good? Little to no maintenance.
Using solar will help clean our air by reducing the
need for dirty coal or oil fired generating plants.
Make the sun your partner and invest in a solar
system. Green Foot Forward can answer all of your
buying, new 30% tax incentives and equipment
rebates starting in 2009, and installation questions.
What does your house or business need to be a
successful candidate for a solar system?
A roof facing south or southwest with a minimum of
five hours exposure to the sun.
Approximately 600 square feet of roof space for a
5kW (an average home size), system.
Trim or remove trees that will block or shade your
solar system.
