We are in an excellent spot for solar, and a marginally OK spot for wind. Our house will have 2x6 walls, extra insulation, and tinted windows, so the heating and cooling loads are reduced. That means that solar could actually handle the load. So, if there is budget at the end of the building process we will add solar. If not, we will add it after we sell our parcels. It makes good sense to add solar in Southern California. -- Kris www.shamrocktrails.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
