We're a retired couple who built our own home near Cortez. After enjoying the house for several years, we decided we could add PV power. Living Solar carefully and thoroughly educated us about grid-tied vs off-grid, the panels and equipment available and the best choices to accomplish what we wanted. We chose grid-tied because it is zero maintenance (other than hosing off the panels once in a while if you choose). Though there were lower bids, we selected Living Solar for their reputation, the quality of equipment they proposed and that thorough approach to providing our proposal. Their installation was very professional and careful, taking into consideration all our wishes, comments and requirements. They took care of all the paper work to quickly get our rebates. The result has operated flawlessly for 8 months and provided the power advertised when the weather cooperated. We planned for more power than we needed with a possible electric car or hot tub in the future, so it's great to watch the meter spin backward and be paid by Empire Electric. It's also fun to have an attractive meter readout indoors on our office wall as well as the ability to access our power generation status and history online from anywhere via smart phone or internet connected pc/tablet. Overall we couldn't be more pleased with the job Living Solar did for us. read more
