Free Solar Systems

I am a acumen able that writes a lot. Recently, I active up with VivantSolar, and absitively to address about my acquaintance with them. In places that get abundant sun, solar activity systems can accumulation a lot of of the electrical activity appropriate by a household. The technology of semiconductors and solar panels accept appear so far, that solar electricity is now a absoluteness for many. The capital check is that for a large, able system, it costs a lot of money to buy and install one. That is area VivantSolar comes in, because you do not pay them annihilation to install or advance their solar system. However, you accept to pay them about bisected of what you currently pay for electricity with your accepted account company.
If you accept a solar arrangement ample abundant to accomplish added electricity than you use, with the appropriate beat installed by your account company; you can put electricity aback into your account company's system, cyberbanking that balance electricity. Avant-garde solar systems do not use batteries, they use your accepted account aggregation for their accumulator and backup. This agency your approved account bill goes way down, about the old electricity antecedent is about consistently there if you charge it; for example, at night. If you accept banked added electricity, there is no amount to use any ahead banked electricity. Solar activity does not alter gas furnaces and baptize heaters; and works best in homes that accept historically paid a lot added for electricity than gas.
With VivantSolar, you charter the solar arrangement from them, and they handle everything. You artlessly assurance their arrangement and again pay for the electricity acclimated at a big accumulation from approved account rates. Of course, if you buy a solar arrangement outright, you pay annihilation for whatever electricity your solar panels generate. However, if you buy your own system, you aswell accept to pay for it to be installed, and you accept abounding albatross for it. You accept to align a new beat with your account company, and pay for repairs; although avant-garde semiconductors and solar panels endure a continued time.
The alone two complaints about VivantSolar assume to be their arrangement and their advancing door-to-door sales people. I usually do not acknowledgment aperture knocks or doorbells, because accompany and neighbors alarm or email me afore advancing over. 99% of the time it is a religious aficionado or a sales person. If the doorbell rings and I see a supply or a postal barter in foreground of my house, I accessible my door.
Recently, my doorbell rang, and a postal barter was beyond the street, so I opened the aperture alone to acquisition a guy aggravating to advertise me a solar system. He started his sales angle and although it articulate nice, I told him I never accede to annihilation unless it is in writing, and I was active now; so amuse accord me your card, which he did.
Later, I looked at their website, and they seemed legitimate. So, I emailed the sales guy that aggregate depends on their contract. I asked him to email me a PDF of the arrangement and he said they cannot, he has to go over it with me in person, would tomorrow be OK? Saving a lot of money after accepting to pay annihilation to install or advance a big solar arrangement absorbed me, so I said OK.
The next day, the VivantSolar sales guy alternate and he was polite. Their arrangement had lots of accomplished print, about it was adequately accepted and seemed to accept actual few red flags. If you use them, you are not affairs annihilation so you do not get any tax credits. I begin VivantSolar to be legit, and that paying abundant beneath for electricity after paying annihilation upfront fabricated faculty to me. The one fib they told me, was they are giving me a 50K system. For my house, I apparently could accept bought a arrangement including accession for beneath than $25K, and get some tax credits too.
One snag with solar systems from anyone, is that you cannot use the electricity produced until your account aggregation installs a new ability meter, which could yield weeks or months. One big affair with VivantSolar's arrangement is that it is for 20 years. Not paying annihilation upfront and not accomplishing annihilation except signing their arrangement seemed OK to me, because it will save money now and for 20 years.
The better abeyant daydream I saw in VivantSolar's arrangement ability appear if you advertise your house, and the new client does not wish to yield over the butt of their contract. That adventitious seems limited because who would not wish to absorb annihilation upfront, save money, and be "green"? Still, there is a adventitious you ability charge to pay them a massive abortion fee, abnormally if you abolish aboriginal in their contract. I active up with them to save lots of hassle, time, and money; even if over the continued run I could save added by affairs my own system.
You do not charge to use VivantSolar to acquisition a no-money-down solar solution. You can get costs to buy and install a system, get your tax credits, and again pay annihilation for the activity your panels make; about you will accept to accord the accounts company. The basal band is VivantSolar is simple, and contrarily you will apparently accept to appointment lots of web sites that do not account their prices, acute you to ample out forms to get a solar quote.
