For those with solar panels, how did it affect your homeowners insurance? I’m curious because I’ve seen reports of rates increasing and read about a couple whose costs jumped by a few thousand dollars for the year.

I got a 7kW solar system a few years ago. It's great for powering my house and charging my EV. The insurance increase wasn't too bad, and the long-term savings are huge.

It seems like the investment has paid off for you in the long run. Did you have to shop around for a better insurance rate after installing your solar panels?
