Solar Homes Tour - Experience the Solar Solution!

On October 1st more than 60,000 people across the country, including thousands in Northern California, will experience solar energy technology on the National Solar Homes Tour. Homeowners will open their homes to demonstrate how solar technology works, what it costs, and why its time is now. System designers and contractors will be available at most sites to answer questions. Each tour showcases a variety of solar equipment, energy efficiency, and green building measures.

The Solar Homes Tour takes place on Saturday October 1, 2005, from 10am-4pm.* Most tours are self-guided and cost $15 for up to two adults, with a $5 discount for early online registration. Pre-register online by visiting http://www.norcalsolar.org.
