TL;DR: Pick a kit, get free Northern Utah delivery, and either set it up yourself in an afternoon or add an install at checkout and we’ll do it. Either path ends with you plugging into an outdoor outlet.

Plug-in solar kit fully installed in a Northern Utah backyard

1. Order

Pick a kit on the buy page:

3 Panel kit — $1,299. 1,200W AC (the legal ceiling), EcoFlow STREAM microinverter, ground mount, you set it up.
3 Panel kit with roof install — $1,899. Same hardware as the 3 Panel kit, plus our crew mounts it on your roof. Site survey first to confirm roof condition and orientation.

Every kit ships with the panels, the microinverter, the mount hardware, and a 25-foot outdoor plug-in cable. One-time payment, no financing, no monthly anything.

If you want a dedicated 20A outlet run to where the inverter lives, our licensed electrical partner handles it for $250–500. Ask us when you order.

2. Receive

We run free Northern Utah delivery on two scheduled days a week. Delivery covers the I-15 corridor from Ogden to Provo. Outside that range we’ll quote shipping at cost.

A kit ships in two boxes, one for the panels, one for the inverter and hardware. If you added the roof install on the 3 Panel kit, we coordinate delivery with the install date so the boxes don’t sit in your driveway.

3. Set up — your way

Two paths, same endpoint.

DIY path

The basic ground-mount install is honestly straightforward. You don’t need solar experience, you don’t need an electrician, you don’t need a permit. What you need:

A flat-ish patch of yard, balcony, or patio with sun
A drill, a wrench, and about an hour
Someone to help lift the panels (they’re ~50 lbs each)

The hardware is bolt-together. Panels clamp onto an aluminum ground frame. The microinverter wires to the panels with the included MC4 connectors. The plug-in cable runs from the inverter to your nearest outdoor outlet. We include written and visual instructions in the box.

If you can assemble flat-pack furniture, you can install this kit.

Done-for-you path

If you’d rather hand it off, add the roof install to the 3 Panel kit at checkout. Our crew handles it end to end after a quick site survey. Roof installs are about a half-day on-site.

Want us to do a ground setup instead? Text us when you order and we’ll quote it.

4. Plug in

The cable plugs into a standard outdoor 120V outlet, the kind that’s already on the side of nearly every Utah home. Once plugged in, the microinverter syncs with the grid in about a minute and starts pushing power.

Two important notes for safety and bill accuracy:

Make sure your outdoor outlet has its own circuit (or only shares with other outdoor outlets). Most do, but a quick check of your breaker panel is worth it. See the safety guide for the full breakdown.
Request a smart meter from RMP before you plug in. Without one, any power you export gets billed as if you consumed it — exactly the wrong direction. Free request, takes two minutes. See the RMP onboarding guide.

If checking your breaker panel is more thinking than you want to do, ask us about the dedicated circuit install. Our licensed electrical partner runs a fresh 20A circuit straight to where your inverter lives, so the kit gets its own clean line. $250–$500 depending on the panel run.

5. Watch your bill

Once plugged in (and the smart meter is in place), your next RMP bill will show fewer kWh consumed. The drop is largest in summer, long days, AC running, kit at full output. Smaller in winter — shorter days, lower angle sun, but still real.

Many homeowners track it through RMP’s online dashboard, which now shows daily usage curves. You’ll see a clear daytime dip on sunny days where the kit is offsetting your draw.

That’s the whole flow: order, mount (or have us mount), plug in, watch the bill go down.

Common questions

How long from order to producing power? Typical: 1 week to receive, 1 hour to set up, ~3 weeks for the smart meter swap. Total: about a month from click to first offset kWh. You can plug in before the smart meter — just know any export during that window will be billed as consumption.

Can I move it later? Yes. The whole system unbolts in 30 minutes. Rooftop solar stays with the house when you sell; a plug-in kit doesn’t.

Does it work in winter? Yes. Cold weather actually improves panel efficiency. You produce less in winter because of shorter days and lower sun angles, not because the panels mind the cold.

What if I want to upgrade later? Two paths. You can add a second plug-in kit, HB 340 allows multiple as long as each is on its own outlet/circuit. Or you can move to a full rooftop system through our sister company BYOP Electric. We can advise on either.
