Solar Operations and Maintenance for Commercial Properties

One key qualification to consider when selecting a solar partner to install your system is whether they have an Operations and Maintenance (O&M) or service department. Since solar is a long-term asset with an expected lifecycle of 30 plus years, ongoing O&M should be considered up front. A trusted O&M partner will maximize your system’s energy output and therefor the return on your investment.

She came to the Estes Park Medical Group in September 2009.

In her free time, Dunn competes in triathlons and other road and trail races. Since 2006, she has also volunteered her time and talent as a physician at Kent Mountain Adventure Center, which is owned by her husband, Harry Kent.

For 10 seasons, Dunn served as the women’s basketball team physician at the University of Denver and worked three years as a volunteer physician for the Colorado Youth At Risk Mentoring Program.
