Thank you for the informative response. Probably won't make the switch on my current home due to the costs, but I'm looking to build a house within the next decade, and it seems like that would be the way to go for my forever home.

No prob! Yeah, if you don't plan to be there for the long haul I probably wouldn't do it. In my case I sold my starter home 2 years ago and moved into my forever home which didn't have AC. So I spent the money as I'll be here for 20+ years. I also installed solar panels so the idea is to get myself as close to net 0 as I can.

Makes perfect sense if you're able to project out 30+ years on a cost/benefit analysis. I've always wanted a plot of land on a river so I could run micro hydro for power.
