i cannot talk about costs of our solar panel as we live in a condo. panels were installed and fixed by them and the water is included in a maintenance fee.
however minovio's mum has put the solar panel for the water heater in her new house and despite the cost of the panel+installation she is happy with it.
i guess it is hard to fork out the money for that but it seems to be working fine. may be a problem if it had to serve more people but for the small household is perfect.
the plans for our future house in POP include solar panels too, i support environmentally friendly energy sources. and sun is free in DR!
