Solar panels: the dos and don’ts
WILMINGOTN, NC (WWAY) — Many homeowners are looking into solar panels to go green and hopefully have lower energy bills. But this isn’t always the result.
WWAY recently spoke with a Wilmington resident who made the switch and regrets it.
On Friday we spoke with Cape Fear Solar Systems. It’s a Wilmington based solar company. Their mission is to help you decide what’s right for your lights.
Gabe Amey is the Sales Manager at Cape Fear Solar Systems.
He said it’s often that people get left in the dark by choosing non-local companies who use third party installers.
“A number of those companies are people trying to come into the area and do business. We oftentimes refer to them as ‘solar sales organizations’ who are going door-to-door, door-knocking,” Amey said. Sometimes they may identify themselves as being from the utility or working with the utility.”
Amey encourages folks to do their research before deciding. He said to get multiple quotes… and stick with local companies.
