AM Solar

We've been anticipating this day for three months, since we made our appointment to have a solar system installed in Venture. We finally met Deb Holder, co-owner, with whom we've been emailing for those three months, and she introduced us to Mike and Jason, the techs who are doing the custom installation of our system. We had already decided to get a four-panel Sun Runner system with a 2000 watt inverter and four AGM deep cycle batteries. The battery compartment had to be relocated to the front compartment (along with the inverter), since the current battery compartment will hold only two batteries. This will be a two-day job, and we're eager to see the results.

The AM Solar facility is new and modern, with a nice customer lounge and bath including shower. We have a 50 amp electric hookup, and the building is set back from the road and looks out on water.

Today was chilly and overcast,with scattered showers. We took Sweetie to the Wash Your Dog Spot and bathed her. Not her favorite thing to do, but it was convenient to have her tethered in a waist high tub with all the accessories around.
