RV Solar Installation in Kalispell, MT

Solar on an RV in Kalispell is a different animal than solar in Arizona. Short winter days, long summer ones, and a lot of trees between you and the panel. Two shops here handle solar work, and one of them will come to you. Both do roofs and electrical too, which matters because a panel install is really a roof and wiring job wearing a solar hat.

What the two shops bring

Bish's RV of Kalispell carries the bigger footprint, with 920 reviews and a 4.4 average, and the type list runs deep: solar, electrical, roof, A/C, fridge, furnace, awning, slide-out, generator, leveling, tires, body and winterize. Glacier RV and Solar is the smaller outfit at 84 reviews and a 4.3 average, but it is the one that goes mobile, and it lists warranty work, generator service and emergency calls. For a panel and controller install, both know the roof side. Ask who is doing the wire run and where the charge controller lands before you agree to anything.

Mobile or shop for solar

A mobile tech can do a lot of solar work in your driveway: measure the roof, plan the layout, check the existing wiring, and often finish the job if the weather cooperates. What they cannot do is keep you out of the rain if a mount hole needs sealing and the sky opens up. If your rig is already at a shop for a roof reseal, stacking solar on top of that visit saves you a second trip. If the rig is parked and you are living in it, mobile makes more sense, and Glacier RV and Solar is the local option that lists mobile service.

Before you book

Solar installs run longer than people expect, so call ahead in spring when everyone in the Flathead is getting ready for the season. Ask flat out whether the panels, controller and mounts they plan to use are in stock or on order, because a backordered controller can hold the whole job. If your rig is under warranty, get pre-approval from the manufacturer before anyone drills a hole in the roof. And after the install, check the sealant around every mount at least once a season, especially going into fall.
