Welcome to That Solar Guy!
I've worked in the solar industry for several years as an installer, a warehouse manager, a procurement officer, a customer support manager, and a solar instructor too. Over those years I've taught 100's of solar contractors how to safely install code compliant PV systems. This eventually lead to me becoming a solar contractor myself. Every week I'm running crews on mutliple jobsites installing great looking solar systems. My well trained Solar Soldiers perform solar installation operations for larger solar companies as well as our in-house accounts. Now, through this website I bring the full wealth of my experience to the aid of the homeowner in a new and unique way. I want to share my knowledge and help you go solar for as little as possible. I loved installing my own solar system and my enthusiasm for my solar project led me to developing this site. This site is all about how to install solar on your own home. This site is about project photos, project videos, how-to videos. This site is about explaining solar concepts and terms. This site is for you.
We can support your solar project like no other supplier/distributor(We're on roof tops everyday, we have tool bags next to our desk). If you're looking for a supplier who knows what they're talking about, give us a call. If you happen to find yourself near Murrieta, California come visit our 'Open to the Public" Solar Supply Shop. Come to "Solar Church" on Sunday mornings where we discuss solar in small group setting.
If you live in California and you're interested in having a professional solar installation, our sister company Triple Line Solar focuses on professionional residential solar installation. Click the big blue button above "WE INSTALL SOLAR" to learn more.

I think my favorite thing about installing a solar energy system on our roof has been the ability for my family to live in comfort and my guests can stay in comfort without us having to fear our utility bill. Summers aren't so hot anymore and winters aren't so dark either.
How to Install
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.
