Well I guess this is an interesting story about how to do careful research before jumping into solar.
I have signed up for a 18.36kw system based on my latest annual electricity bill which was $4500.
What I didn't do was research past years bills which were in fact closer to $3000.
The difference was my new hot tub I believe. I keep in running throughout the freezing winter. Apparently it's costing me $1500 a year to run!!
I just bought a watt meter to check but I'm pretty sure.
The only upside is I just installed two 5 ton heat pumps so if I get a hold on the hot tub usage I will have ample electricity to run it. Probably a couple of EVs as well. I'm just blown away at how wasteful a hot tub is.
