With few trees or obstructions to shade their roof, their home receives 94% solar access annually, making it perfect for solar. With a mixture of electric and non-electric home appliances, their home consumes 12,079 kW annually, the average for homeowners. They were interested in future-proofing their home, so A&R Solar oversized their system to accommodate future electrical upgrades.[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top=”50″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][gem_list type=”checkbox” color=”3″ effects_enabled=”1″]

[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top=”45″][vc_column_text css=””]The graphic shows that William and Elizabeth’s system will produce more energy in the summer when the days are long and the sun is out. This means they’re storing energy credits with their utility. This is called net metering. The credits he accumulates will be used to lower their utility bill in the winter months.
Solar for your home is a big investment, that’s why A&R Solar provides you the facts about how much energy your system is expected to produce each year. Then we’ll back that up with a written solar production guarantee.
Get the performance you expect, or we’ll refund you 110 percent of the difference, guaranteed.
