What You Need to Know

Description:

We have 40 LG panels with a Fronuis IG inverter on our roof

Other Benefits:

So far we have enjoyed the 100%+ reduction in our energy bill

Maintenance Requirements:

None so far

Efficiency or Sustainability Improvements:

Home was already an EnergyStar home

My Motivation:

To become more green, and todo it in a way that had a reasonable payback

Experience with Installer:

The installation went great. They did not meet the original install date due to rainy weather. Blow ever; when the installation date came they showed up with 2 crews and completed the installation in one day instead of the expected 3 days. The system worked as designed from day one

Additional Notes:

We chose to work with Circular Energy due to the recommendation of a neighbor who had used them. He had vetted several companies, and felt Circular was the best. We also reviewed them via Angie's lists where Circular was highly rated
