using personal funds to offset an LLC expense

Hi,

 

This is likely a question for my CPA, but I wanted to try to get some ideas here. Long story short: we have an LLC (and I use QBO to track expenses and income) for our short-term house rental. I've decided to get solar panels installed before the end of the year.
