Hi... the house we're going into contract on is a colonial with a tall roof so you don't see it from street... DH thinks we'd be good candidates for solar panels b/c it's so high and it wouldn't be ugly to look at, lol... he mentioned something about FHA adding on 8k to your mortgage to roll in energy efficient improvement costs. I am wondering... does anyone know a reputable installer? does anyone have solar panels and is it worth it? how much do you have to lay out initially?

thanks!
