I've been curious about solar panels for a while now. With the incentives and the available loan programs I decided to bite the bullet and get them. I had 36 of the Itek 260w panels installed, for a total of 9360 Watts along with Blue Frog YC500. Both products are Washington made to maximize the incentives. The system is installed on two of my barns which are in the middle of a pasture which are over 300 ft. away from my house and electrical service. I sized the system to produce slightly more the electricity that I currently use. Using the monitoring tool, I see that on good days, the panels are producing up to 275 watts. So it looks like I will end up generating more electricity than estimated. <br /><br />I went with Kirk and South Sound Solar because he's my neighbor and I have talked with him about Solar Energy. He seemed extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer my questions in a way that I would understand. I'm glad I went with South Sound Solar and happy with the system they installed. Everyone I dealt with where professional, knowledgeable and friendly to work with. They kept a clean and professional work site. The only problem was that the panels got backordered at the factory, and they started two weeks late. This was also around the Christmas season, and I sure that didn't help ether. The work actually took the amount of time that they estimated.<br /> <br />I recommend Kirk and South Sound Solar completely.
