“Below the Line” – One client’s first electric bill after solar
Ms. Weeks gave us permission to post her first utility bill after the solar installation. This electric bill shows how effectively a solar power system can eliminate a utility bill. Note that the electricity usage bar chart shows a drop “below the line,” as Ms. Weeks called it, when her solar power system first went online with SCE.
“My (electric) bill was $0”
Patricia Weeks wrote in to tell us about her first electric bill after installing her HelioPower solar electricity system. When we asked if we could post her note online she said, “Yes, tell the world. I feel the Heliopower people are superior. I had 3 other estimates beside HelioPower and you were the ones most down-to-earth, and made sure the buyer was totally happy.”
Here is Patricia’s solar testimony:
“I had solar installed on my home in the Palm Springs Ca. area by Heliopower.
My anniversary date is Jan 16th and my Feb bill was $0 with credits. That was my first solar bill.
I am totally happy with my solar system and I know I will not have to pay for energy next month either. That meter just keeps going around and around backwards.
Also, I had the pleasure of meeting Vanessa, my solar representative. She has been so helpful to me in regards to solar. No question is too small or too big. She knows what she is talking about.
I received one rebate check for $8,226.00 and will get the balance next January, cutting my cost almost in half.
Just wanted you to know I just love the solar panels and so sorry I didn’t invest in them years ago. “
