It seems that the company I wanted to go with does not service my area, but they were good enough to recommend a company that does.
Here's what I got so far:
Domestic hot water solar will cost $5,990. That includes the solar panel, 85 gallon hot water tank, and installation. I have to run a 220 line for the new tank for electric back-up during those not so sunny days. Solar heat for the pool spa will cost $3,500 total. That includes the solar panel and installation- nothing else is needed. I'm waiting for the sales guy to give me a price if I do both at the same time.
There is the Fed write-off of 1/3 for the hot water, plus $1,000 FPL rebate, so I'll end up paying a little over $3,000 for the hot water. Suntrust bank offers 0% for 12 months so I might think about that.
I'll update for anyone who cares.
