In the interest of gratuitous posting as requested, a point of curiosity.
I have impetuously decided to have a solar power system installed on my roof (a $400+ monthly electric bill in the summer to run my AC stirred this impetus). It will be tied into the grid (this allows me to forgo a battery system, as I build up kW credits during daylight as my meter spins backwards, then use them at night), which will supplement power as needed.
But, since I will often be running on nice pure sine wave power from a sleek gleaming humming inverter array in my garage, I am wondering if I will see similar benefits to a power filter system. Or will the noise inherent in my house (refrigerator compressor motors, etc.) make it be business as usual?
Whatchoo all think?
For those of you who's interest is piqued by this, the system is basically going to be free for me. The State of CA will give me about a $12K rebate on a $30K system, I get another $2K in property tax breaks, and pay for the balance with a home equity refi. Interest on that is further tax deductible, and the increase in my mortgage will be less than my STINKING GRAY-DAVIS-IDIOT-GOVERNOR INDUCED ABSURD ELECTRICAL BILLS. I'm NOT bitter.
Cool, huh?
