Anyone living in a regional center, I think, if they want to see that regional center flourish you always look to buy local where you can. Sometimes it may cost a little more, but in the long run, it's worth doing that to support the community and continue to make the community viable and flourishing. There's a guy up on our roof right now, I know several people who were his teachers in Bathurst. So, if you can eyeball somebody and say, I know where you live or occasionally, I know your parents or I know your brother-in-law, or whatever. Again, you're living in a regional town and these things are important. It may not be so significant if you live in a city of 4 million, but it is in a city of 40,000.
Well, do your own research, read whatever you can, look online. Be careful about who's presenting reviews, whether they have all come from one place. If they just come from the producer of the panel, maybe not so reliable, but be objective. Certainly ask advice, read magazines, Choice magazine springs to mind. Other reviews online are useful. Look around town. If you know somebody who's already living under a roof covered with solar panels, again in a country town, If you don't know them, you might know their neighbor or someone down the street. Just have a chat to people. What's your experience? Ask people as well as looking at retailing outlets in town.
Is it important to choose a local solar power installer if you're living in a regional town?
