  • Input on 2 Solar Estimates

    I have two estimates from two similar companies with good reviews and referrals and I am having trouble deciding. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    Option 1:
    19 Silfab SLA-M 280 Watt panels (Canadian panel, all black) = 5.320KW
    Enphase microinverters
    10 year warranty on parts + labor, and anything left on manufacturer's warranty of panels (12 years on everything, after that guarantees on production) and microinverters
    $16,000 before 30% tax rebate = $3.01 per watt

    Option 2:
    20 Trina 265 Watt panels (Chinese panel, navy) = 5.3KW
    Enphase microinverters
    25 year warranty on parts + labor
    $17,732 before 30% tax rebate = $3.34 per watt

    I can also sub in the all black recom 280 panel for $500-$600 more in option 2.

    The rep from option 2 is going to get back to me if he can come down closer to option 1's quote. So looking for input as to whether to go with cheaper system at current prices and whether it's worth it to switch to option 2 if the prices become comparable. Thanks so much.
