DIY Grid-Tied Solar Panel Systems

Flat Lake Engineering LLC will provide you with the materials to install your home solar panel system. If you are handy with home projects, installing it yourself is quite feasible, and you can save up to 50% of the usual retail home installed cost.

If this sounds like a possibility for you, go through our Resource videos to learn about the installation process, including:

• How does a grid-tied solar power system work?
• 
Mistakes when designing a Solar Panel System
• Subpanel Installation
• 
Microinverter Installation

 and links to:
  • Municipality of Anchorage (Permitting – which we obtain for you.)

  • Solar Installers in the Anchorage area

Feel competent but wonder if you need assistance tying into the electrical grid? This is a step you, the homeowner, are permitted to take. But if you are unsure, you can hire a licensed electrician to complete your hookup. You will pay a professional a fraction of the cost of having them install your entire project.

Once you have the confidence to take this step toward a bit of energy independence, contact us and we will arrange a time to discuss the size of your solar panel installation and determine the package cost. With a 15% deposit, we will secure the permit and deliver your system. We can’t guarantee your work product, but we can give you the materials to protect your energy source for years to come.
