I'm sorry for posting this here. There isn't a solar panel instance, nor did I see anything for electricians. I know there's been a lot of gripe with certain solar companies (solgen being in litigation, and others) but I didn't hear much about freedom forever, since they're new to Seattle area where I'm doing this. Reddit seems to hate this company. But the price seems alright. I'm paying $22k for 7.4kw but getting it down to 15k after the state stipend. Less than $3 a watt which I'm guessing is really good. I'm planning to pay it off in 2 or 3 years. Not the full 25 which will cost me so much more. Can anyone point me in the right direction and if I'm making the right decision?

If they don't install what was quoted, you might not know until this are installed. That could make things difficult.

I'll add that is around the size of my system and less than I paid. I do have microinverters however. So that could explain some cost difference.

Then they can pay to remove it. Violation of contract. I didn't agree to equivalent panels. I agreed to what they quoted and what I paid for.

Hmm. Did you take out a loan? I'm doing this with a 25 year loan. It's a little pricy to do that

I did a 5 year "solar loan" through my credit union. 2.49% if I recall correctly.
