Solar Power In Phoenix
Monday, February 23rd, 2009
How much did your Solar water heater cost you? 10 pts.?
I live in Phoenix Arizona and they say a typical installation cost $5000. But, with the power company incentive of 1300, state rebate of 25% and federal rebate of 30% that the finally cost would be about $1600. I was just wondering if these numbers are accurate. Was there any additional hidden costs? About how much did it save you a month/year ? Give me all the details you can please and you get the 10 pts. I am with SRP power of that helps.Thanks
in phoenix it is well worth it and that sounds cheap in many places the benefits are debatable costwise, if you get big solar panels on your roof you get free hot water and a cooler house because the roof is effectively water cooled so you save a bundle on A/C
