What is the average cost range for a home heating system?

if your Condo has existing Duct Work then you are ahead of the Game, as that is what Costs the Most for Installation. Most Units will Range from 1000.00 to about 5000.00 (with out installation)

Have you got any evidence for them price gouging? The cheapest solar panels in the world are produced by FirstSolar and last year they only just dropped below $1,000/kWp (i.e. $10,000 for your 10kWp system). That doesn't include frames, inverters, grid tie system or installation. And silicon is more expensive and are available for home rooftops right now unlike FS' CdTe. I think it's a case of solar still being too expensive. Prices are falling, and will continue to do so. The big problem atm is that non-module things account for about half of the cost (maybe more now). Frames, installation, inverter etc. And wow, your small to medium homes guzzle electricity! In northern England you should expect a 10kWp system to make ~7,500kWh in a year. Our household of 5 people used the equivalent of under 4,000kWh leccy with gas heating last year. And N England isn't very sunny! I think that energy efficiency is the best start. You're probably going to have to wait a few more years for solar prices to become sensible. I did a research project on CdTe solar cells. As part of it we had access to literature from other research and industry groups with price projections. Commercial thin films are expected to hit grid parity in sunny areas in under a decade - they're already very very close. Rooftop ones are more expensive and currently rely on silicon - if we can get high efficiency thin film materials (CIGS, CZGS or dye sensitized probably. Maybe amorphous or poly-Si will do) then we may hit household grid parity by 2020ish in sunny places. I've heard 2025-2030 thrown about for the UK.

Try www.coolrunninghs@verizon.net and address your question to Dave. This is a really resonsive company but I am unsure of how large the appliance units he carries are. If he cannot help you with his own stock, he can certainly point you in the right direction.

Tell him Guy in Nebraska referred you to him. I had a great experience buying from him at reasonable pricing, just last month.
