[quote=Anonymous]Not really a pro or con, but you may want to look into what else you can do for energy efficiency first. We looked into buying solar panels for our 1400 sq foot house, but even with a perfect roof and location for solar, the costs and benefits didn't balance out for us. Our house runs on a combination of electric and natural gas, so YMMV. A few hundred dollars on insulation, caulk, and a few thousand on new doors can make a big difference on your energy consumption for a small fraction of the cost of solar panels. As much as I'd love to send even less money to our electric company, the costs was such that it would have taken decades for the system to save us the money we would have spent on it. If I had more money I might have done it for non-financial reasons, but we are not in that situation. [/quote]
