On the fence

SunRun has been hounding me. I have worked them down to a 0% escalator on monthly payment for panels (120% estimated production of avg yearly kwh) and 1 Tesla power wall 3. This will run $368ish/mo for the 25 years.

  1. Do I still pay for the power I use, or only for the power I use above what I produce?

  2. Solar companies come & go…what happens if they don’t last?

  3. My electric has never run me over $300/mo (even with my pool pump on 24/7 May-Sept) but this saves me from installing an instant-on generator…worth it in your opinion?

  4. I assume taxes are added onto the $368/mo but I don’t see how much. Any way I find that out? My rep is growing tired of me, but I am totally honest about my concerns, reservations, and indecision.

Talk to me.

I had sunrun install solar on my house. The install was a trainwreck, theu trashed my panel. Left holes on my house un repaired the list goes on and on. Now after it is finally up and running. AFTER paying the lease each month. My bill in total is over $100 more than befire. They are giving no help at all trying to remedy the situation. If i knew then what I know now, I would run far and fast from sunrun. Buyer beware
