Solar System Builder

Build Your Off-Grid System.

Start with what you want to power. The interactive planner recommends a direction, lets you build the system scene by scene, and explains what the result can realistically do.

Step 1

What do you want to power?

Start with everyday life—not solar equipment. Choose a typical use or build your own list, and the planner will translate it into energy, battery, solar, and inverter needs.

Choose the things you expect to run

The estimates use typical daily energy—not just the wattage printed on the device.

Live Power Recommendation

Choose what you want to run

The planner will compare your everyday power need with the system currently selected.

Step 2

Choose a starting system

Use the recommendation above or choose a package yourself. Every selection can still be adjusted.

Step 3

Solar panels

Select a panel family and quantity. Final roof layout must be measured.

Step 4

Battery bank

Select lithium capacity, cold-weather features, and battery quantity.

Real-world capability examples

Approximate battery-only runtime for one representative load at a time. Solar input can extend runtime; simultaneous loads reduce it.

Planning estimates use about 4.5 peak-sun-hours, normal conversion losses and a battery reserve. Actual production and runtime vary with sun hours, weather, shade, season, temperature, battery state, appliance efficiency, startup demand and simultaneous loads. Final design and performance require professional review.

Step 6

Charging, monitoring, and protection

Build the rest of the system around the array and battery bank.

Electrical wiring and protection component illustration
Protection is part of every complete installation.

Required cable sizing, fusing, breakers, disconnects, busbars, terminals, equipment mounting, and labeling cannot be removed from the final design.

Step 7

Add inspection, removal, or custom work

Tell us what needs to happen before or alongside the new system.
