- Helping you find a knowledgeable installer.
- Being there for you after your installation.
Your local public power utility asks that you follow these Do’s and Don’ts when evaluating your solar options:
- Do evaluate your home’s current energy usage.
- Don’t give in to high-pressure sales tactics.
- Do contact your local public power utility first before signing any contract.
- Don’t assume your home is a good fit for solar.
- Do get multiple quotes from installers.
- Don’t believe the cost savings and benefits without visiting with your local utility.
