The Investment Thread

Have you looked into solar? That's an insane bill for a building that size. Assuming the building is closed at night you could probably pay for solar to eliminate your electricity costs in just a couple of years.

I know I've been very happy with the solar I had installed. It's nice seeing credits on even the hottest weeks of the year and having battery backup has been great for the frequent power outages we get in rural Ms.
I looked into it awhile back but never pulled the trigger. Looking to sell and retire in the next year so probably will not do it.

The building has 4 roll up doors with refrigerator flaps on them but even if they are open for a short time to let the dogs play in the outside yards it takes a while to cool the building back down with the heat we have been having. The largest bill I've gotten in 16 1/2 years.

I have 8 large units on the roof that are serviced pretty close to every month so pulling a lot of electricity.
