Peace of mind...

Electric bills are going up significantly — buffer with solar to keep money in your pockets: paid-off 20 panels, solar thermal hot water + Tesla Powerwall

Most homes rely completely on the grid. This one doesn’t.

A premium system of twenty solar panels and a solar thermal hot water system were installed in May 2016 and are fully paid off, providing long-term energy savings from day one. A Tesla Powerwall backup system, added in May 2020, is used daily to reduce electric costs by storing solar energy and supplementing normal grid power. During outages, the system automatically keeps essential items running, including the refrigerator, phone charging, and the sump pump, offering real peace of mind when the power goes out.

An 80-gallon solar water heater was installed in September 2024.

Energy-saving programmable thermostat, controllable by phone app, adds another layer of efficiency and comfort.

A nearby homeowner recently mentioned their electric bills average around $300 per month. That conversation really highlighted the value of having paid-off solar already in place.

This home averages about $110 per month in electric costs, thanks to solar, energy-efficient systems, and a Powerwall backup. Instead of planning upgrades later, the savings begin immediately. That difference can mean thousands saved over time, without the upfront cost of installing solar or backup systems.

The roof was replaced with 30-yr asphalt shingles along with new rain gutters in 2018.

New attic insulation-May 2016 to improve energy savings.

• Typical home: much higher bills, outage stress, future upgrades needed

• Your home: upgrades already done, low monthly costs, backup power built in

SAVE EVEN MORE MONEY by never buying bottled water again.

Water quality is something many don’t think about until they experience the difference. This home includes whole-house water filtration and a kitchen reverse-osmosis system (Jan 2021) that delivers drinking water way better than bottled straight from the tap. Say goodbye to the chlorine taste found in city water and enjoy pure water for cooking, coffee, and ice. The system also creates gentler showers and added protection for plumbing and appliances so they last longer.
