Francoise's Story
With Sunrun, Francoise and Aharon were able to make a difference in the environment, without a huge dent in their wallets.
When Francoise and Aharon started to look into home solar for their Woodside house, Aharon was determined to do something good for the environment. Francoise agreed, but she wanted to use some kind of home solar financing so they didn't break the bank in the process.
"We wanted to be energy independent, and Sunrun allowed us to achieve this goal without us investing a lot of money in it," she said.
With Sunrun, Francoise and Aharon got the best of both worlds. They ended up with a residential photovoltaic system, along with a hot tub, because they saved 66% on the upfront cost to get Sunrun solar power service.
At their home in Woodside, solar power requires a bit of maintenance – Francoise and Aharon have a lot of trees and greenery surrounding their home. It's beautiful, but this also means lots of leaves, debris, and falling branches - especially in the winter storm season. Fortunately, with Sunrun home solar, they don't have to worry about any damage that might be done to their system. Sunrun means Francoise and Aharon enjoy free maintenance and repairs, monitoring, panel washing, and system insurance.
Francoise and Aharon have reduced their dependence on fossil fuels, which they count as a huge benefit of their PV panels. They've already offset tons of CO2 emissions, and they're pleased their commitment to solar in Woodside, CA and the health of the environment will make a meaningful impact in the years to come.
