When the Case family was looking for a second home in the mountains they had many great options to choose from. What made the home they ultimately purchased stand out from the rest?—the SunPower solar system.
“You can’t have a premier home without the key premier features,” said Scott Case. “The difference of selling your house or not is having a feature like solar.”
As with any second home, the Case family incurs a number of ongoing maintenance costs on their Lake Tahoe home even when they aren’t there. But the SunPower system on the Case home significantly reduces these ongoing expenses. “It’s nice to know that we’re going to come out with a net zero electricity bill because we contribute a lot more than we use, which we love.”
In addition to the savings they experience today, the Case family also sees the power of their system over the long-term. “The value of solar is over years and decades,” adds Case. “And so it’s important that you choose your solar company carefully because you’re going to be living with them for the length of time you live with your home.”
