More than 50% of air conditioning systems are oversized or have improper refrigerant charge, leaky ducts, or mismatched coils- reducing equipment efficiency by 30-50%!

Residential and commercial solar systems currently enjoy state and federal incentives that cover approximately 43% of the total system cost. While federal incentives are expected to be in place at the same level until 2016, the state incentives come down as more systems are installed on homes and businesses. In San Diego County, we moved into step 6 of the state incentive ($1.10/Watt) in October of 2009, and we expect to move into step 7 of the state incentive ($0.65/Watt) sometime in April of 2010. This means that on average, the state incentive will be reduced from 18% to 11% of the total system cost. In 2007, when the state rebate program started, incentives were $2.50/Watt. So don't wait any longer. If you do, you will still save money on electricity bills, but you will miss out on attractive rebates.
Example of 3kW Residential System (Before April 2010)
Total System Cost $18,000
State Rebate $3,300
Federal Tax Credit $4,410
Net Cost $10,290
Example of 3kW Residential System (After April 2010)
Total System Cost $18,000
State Rebate $1,950
Federal Tax Credit $4,815
Net Cost $11,235

Solar finance experts suggest that each kW of power from a PV (photovoltaic) system adds $15,000 to the resale value of a home. Solar systems require little or no upkeep, rarely break or wear out, and can last for up to 40 years, providing you with clean, consistent energy. Also, much of the cost for the system can be offset with State and Federal rebates.
