Solar power has been catching on all over California, and Modesto is
no exception. Within the city there are several companies that are willing
to assist you in compiling and erecting a solar kit. These companies
offer such perks as free in-home consultations, professional installation,
and maintenance plans.
The Solar Electric Company is based in Modesto, and they offer online
quotes in addition to in-home consultations. They among other companies
also offer financing on your solar power kits. This can be a huge boon
to families that would like to go solar, but don’t have the cash
to front for it. Solar panels are not cheap, and there’s a big
difference between noting the rising cost of electricity and being able
to pay for it while saving money for a solar panel installation.
The average cost of installing solar panels in Modesto is 7-9 dollars
per watt. This figure may not seem like much, until you think about
the fact that an average home uses several kilowatts of power each day.
If you were to install a 2.5 kilowatt system at nine dollars a watt
your installation bill would run a hefty $22,500. While this bill does
include installation and materials, it is still beyond what many can
afford to pay up front for a home improvement. This is why financing
is such a great option; it can allow you to start saving on your power
bill now, rather than later.
