You can’t control the weather, but you CAN control how expensive your electric bill is at the end of the month.

San Diego’s Hottest Months Are Upon Us
San Diego’s hottest months are July, August, and September. Last year, El Cajon hit high temperatures of 100°F in June, 95°F in July, & 102°F in August! Ouch! No one likes to be up at night sweating, tossing, and turning trying to fall asleep. You deserve to enjoy the luxury of living with solar. Live your lifestyle how you choose instead of being at the mercy of the electrical company to decide when & how you should run your AC.
When the heat strikes, you turn to the sweet, melodic hum of the AC unit. Once the switch is flipped, you instantly feel the cooling relief as the constant frozen breeze of air drapes the room. All is great until you receive the bill at the end of the month…Homeowners can pay upwards of 300% percent more of their typical bill without AC!
Running central air conditioning in a typical home for six hours a day, with the kwh rate as much as $.55 or more can you leave you paying $10-$15 a day / $350 a month to remain comfortable. For more frugal people that decide to run their AC less and choose to run a ceiling fan, not only is this method ineffective but it costs money to run that fan!
What seemed like a monthly standard bill transformed into a nightmare!
How Solar Can Lower Your Average Electricity Bill
This graph depicts the SDGE new time of use (TOU) rate system. These high prices will be going up even higher soon. Electricity costs in San Diego are proposed to rise by 11 percent in 2019, and an additional 7.13 percent in 2020, 5.11 percent in 2021, and 4.99 percent in 2022. Now is a better time than ever to invest in solar panels to avoid paying the electricity premium.
Solar panels have the capability to save you money by reducing your utilities/energy costs along with several other benefits such as:
- Zero-down financing options available that are significantly lower than your monthly electricity bill.
- Going solar can nearly eliminate or significantly reduce your electric bill.
- The system will pay for itself typically within 3-5 years, the rest of the duration will be a return on your investment.
- Renewable clean energy reduces reliance on fossil fuels.
