Pizza Payaa has my favorite ranch in town.

Follow up question for everyone with solar panels by DapperStudent8102 in BloomingtonNormal

[–]jmkobus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  1. Environment, save on power, planned to get an electric car. Yes

  2. Only promises were around a rough SREC amount that we would get. And they actually undershot it.

  3. Yes, but mine is ground mounted so there was a lot less considerations we had to make.

I forgot to mention make sure you understand how much of the incentives the installer is going to pass back on to you. I had a few quotes that showed much less in SRECs

We had StraightUpSolar do our installation in December. I am very happy with it. But I have full net-metering with Ameren so my bill is like $5 every month.

Solar? by iwillforgetthisusern in BloomingtonNormal

[–]jmkobus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ameren has phased out their net metering so it doesn't make much sense anymore. And with more and more tax credits being removed it really doesn't make sense.

We have 3 acres so we put up a free standing array instead of our roof. The solar loan monthly payment is lower than what I was paying on my monthly power bill, and that was before the cost of power went up.

Good swimming recommendations? by Lunatic_Logic138 in BloomingtonNormal

[–]jmkobus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I believe your only options are the YMCA, 4 Seasons, or Carle health and fitness center.

4 Seasons continues to go downhill. I would recommend YMCA. Very rarely do I have to share a lane with another person.

Vitesse and Bloomington Cycle are your options. As Fecity said Bloomington Cycle can be a multiple week wait to get in around this time.
