RevoluSun installed our SunPower solar panels late last year, and they came online on 31st December 2015. We have made a number of efficiency improvements to our home, including LED lighting everywhere, a heat pump hot water heater, and air heat pump home heating. We have an oil furnace to use as backup, which we run once a month to be sure it still works.
