The Catalyst for Change: Rising Electricity Bills


Swanson's decision to go solar was largely driven by soaring electricity bills, which reached over $600 in some months. With a pool and air conditioning to maintain, Swanson was concerned about the impact of the recent wave of rate increases on their household budget.


The Quest for the Perfect Solar Provider


Determined to find the best solar solution, Swanson obtained quotes from three companies: Trinity, iSP, and Sunrun. The choice ultimately came down to several factors, including the knowledge of the salesperson, the equipment offered, panel appearance, ratings, and recommendations from acquaintances. Price played a role as well, with iSP falling in the middle range among the three companies.
