8000W Complete Solar System Kit, SMA Grid-Tie Inverter
That Solar Guy's 8000W SMA Sunnyboy Complete DIY Grid-Tie Solar Kit is the perfect entry into residential solar systems.
Depending on the wattage of the panels you could be using as much as 36 modules.
This size system is good for those:
That have a pretty high electric bill
That have a pool, or people at home all day
That have some decent roof space, or land
Often seen in multiples like 16kW or 24kW situations
Each Complete Solar Kit is designed, drafted, picked, packaged, and shipped for YOU.
Each Solar Kit Includes:
Modules
High Quality Solar Panels
Your Complete Solar Kit is based on field proven, high performance modules (also known as solar panels or collectors). The module supply in this industry changes quickly. Generally, wattages are increasing AND prices are going down. Your Complete Solar Kit is always based on a module that is found to reside in that "sweet spot" of $/watt. Therefore making your components the best "bang for your buck"
Racking
The number of feet, flashings, rails, splice kits, and clamps will be determined from your final plan set. Your kit will come with flashings and sealant.
When ordering, you will need to know the type of roof you have. Click here to see an overview of common roofs.
Inverter

How to Install Solar Yourself
The installation of a solar system, even from a complete kit is considered above the average homeowner's skill set and should not be taken upon lightly. Each task is rather simple, but you will be working at heights, on a angle, probably in the heat of the bright sun, working with power tools, hoisting large expensive pieces of glass up ladders and across a roof peppered with racking and wiring.
You'll also be working with DC voltages above 300VDC and household 240V AC. You should be good with simple math and be mechanically inclined. If you're willing to give it a try, it can be a rewarding experience both in saving you a lot of money and of giving you a great sense of accomplishment.
If self-installation is not for you, find a local solar contractor here.
NOTE: Prices are based on average layout with average length wire runs. Your Complete Solar Kit will most likely be a couple hundred dollars below or above depending upon you home's requirements.
NOTE: You should also budget for shipping cost and if you're in California, Sales Tax
NOTE: Production values can vary greatly, the numbers here are estimates based on averages.
For example a (33) 250W module system:
at 32 degrees tilt facing 180 south in San Diego could produce 1,104kWh/month
at 23 degree tilt facing 165 southeast in Massachusetts could produce 793kWh/month
Call 866-798-4435 to give us details about your house and we can quickly provide a good estimate of how much the kit would produce if installed at the proposed location under proposed tilt and azimuth. You'll need to provide your zip code, your roof tilt and compass heading of the roof pitch.
