Pattee & Lanphear
We were contacted in the early spring of 2017 by Thresa Pattee who had been interested in pursuing solar for quite some time. When Kyle met with Thresa at her home for the free site visit, she mentioned her neighbor who lived in the adjoining duplex was also interested in purchasing a solar electric system.
After an initial consultation with Thresa and her neighbors, the Lanphears, we went to work designing a system that would be aesthetically pleasing for their homes which shared a roof.
Our Strategy
Having systems that matched was important to both clients. Even though they had different energy demands, we were able to come up with a design that fit their individual needs and still seamlessly blended together to give the appearance of a single system.
In order to accomplish this, we used panels with different wattages that still look looked the same. Because these two neighbors pursued their solar electric needs at the same time, we were able to purchase all the gear at one and consequently reduce costs for the customers.
Harvest Solar also helped Thresa with the lengthy process of obtaining a DEQ Loan through the state of Montana.
