De ja vu

More waiting . . . My installer told me now we are waiting for controller cards. This will take a few more weeks. Is it still called déjà vu when you think you have heard something 4 or 5 times before?

Waiting for Installaton

  More waiting! The snowstorm has gotten my installer behind schedule on the installs. He has put together one tower, but found that he is missing a head cover part, which could take a few more weeks to get.


Luckily, I didn’t count on the turbine being installed right away, so I renewed my building permit for another year. Let’s hope it goes in before Feb 2011!
I did make progress on the insurance front. By getting all my insurance through Nation Wide I was able to get a policy for the wind turbine and save money on my car and homeowners policy. Switching insurance companies is a real pain however. I just couldn’t stay with a company that would have cancelled my policy because I had a wind turbine on the same property as my house. I was just reading the mounds of paperwork. It seems I'm covered for Vandalism and Lighting strike with a huge deductable. I’m not covered for wind damage, earthquake,or volcanoes or nuclear bombs .
