Answers:    Hello Ed:

The size of the home is not the quantifier, it is how much power you use. Do you have a gas stove, or electric? Is your dryer gas, or do you use a clothes row? Your central grill has an electric blower, do you use gas or run a warmth pump? Do you have nouns conditioning? Solar will not supply 100% of your power 100% of the time, you will still need to be on public service for cloudy days.

To get hold of more thorough information, you might consider enrolling surrounded by a course at your community college or adult childhood extension.
