Our expectations on the system, it'll be due to our high energy use Monday to Friday eight to five, that would be hopefully close to zero during the work hours. And then on the non-work hours, we should be able to put something back in and gain then. If there's any other business that would like to invest in solar power, I recommend going that if you're a Monday to Friday, eight to five type business, they're the peak hours, the most expensive times. Solar can offset that. We looked at several systems along the way. So the higher cost systems we felt were much better and we're going to be less intrusive in our time, and we would recommend them to anybody.
It's just one of those things you pay for what you get I think, and solar power and solar panels are definitely in that category. As accountants, we do numbers all the time and often we will see that yes, trying to explain to somebody that it is worthwhile upfront paying a bit more upfront, and then getting it back over a longer period of time. Rather than saving a few dollars now and getting it, something short, but you'll have to replace it again in a much shorter timeframe. And we believe that type of system will work out to be a lot more expensive in the long run. So if you do it once, do it properly and that's what we thought. That's what we like to think we've done.
The installations went very smoothly, they kept us informed all the way along of how it was progressing and what we needed to do. The assistance and help in designing our system on what our actual requirements would be, what would be too little, what would be too much. And the service went through very efficiently, and as they said it would.
What recommendations does Craig from KDA Group Accountants have for any business investing in solar power?
