Email your quote from Sunrun, SunPower, Spring Solar, Smart Wave, Creative Energies, Vivint, Blue Raven, or any installer. A Utah Master Electrician (B.S. Electrical Engineering) reads it within 24 hours and tells you straight: what’s hidden in the financing, what the hardware actually costs, what the rebates should look like, and whether you’re getting played. No hard sell. No purchase required.
No webinar. No “quick 15-minute call.” You send us the quote, we read it, you get a plain-English summary back.

A Utah Master Electrician (engineer with 2 years installing in this exact market) reads your quote within 24 hours. We check: total cost, hardware list, financing escalators, dealer fees, lease vs cash math, panel/battery brand match, Wattsmart eligibility.
A plain-English text or email back. What looks fair, what’s a red flag, what specific numbers to push back on. Optionally we’ll send our own transparent quote so you can compare. Zero pressure to switch.
Door-to-door reps and call-center closers know most homeowners won’t read the contract. We do. Here’s what we flag every time.
Most “1.99% APR” loans bake a 30–50% dealer fee into principal. Your $20K install becomes $30K. We do the math against actual cash price.
Sunrun and similar PPA contracts often escalate 2.99% per year. A $150/mo lease becomes $295/mo by year 25 — $58K total. We surface this in writing.
Of all the home batteries on the market, only some are eligible for Rocky Mountain Power’s $2,000 Wattsmart rebate. If your quote includes Anker, Bluetti, or another non-eligible battery, you’re leaving $2,000 on the table.
Quote says “8 kW system” but the panel count + wattage don’t multiply to 8 kW? Or the inverter is undersized? Or the battery brand is changed at signing? We catch these.
25-year leases that can’t transfer at home sale. We’ll show you the exact paragraph in your contract that says it.
Tesla’s $500 Next Million rebate expires June 30, 2026. If your install date is after, the quote should reflect $500 less, not the same.
Some quotes hide permits + plan-check + AHJ as “miscellaneous.” We tell you the real cost (typically $400–$700) so you know if you’re being padded.
The 30% federal residential ITC expired Dec 31, 2025. If your quote dated 2026 still mentions a 30% federal credit, the rep is uninformed or worse.

I started BYOP because I did the math on my own home install in 2023. Found door-knocker companies were charging 30–50% above actual costs to fund commission stacks. I quit my job, got the licenses, and built a no-salespeople installer. I read every quote myself.
Yes. Bat reads quotes manually. No upsell, no hard sell. About 1 in 4 people we review end up wanting our quote — but no pressure either way.
Tell us in the form. We’ll still read it and give you negotiation points to take back to your installer. Some of our analyses have helped people get $5K–$10K knocked off Sunrun quotes without switching.
PDF is easiest (email to [email protected]). Paste text into the form below works too. Even just the key numbers (total cost, system size, financing rate) is enough to give you ballpark feedback.
24 hours during M–Sat. We respond by text or email — your choice in the form.
We can still read your quote — the dealer-fee math and lease tricks are universal. We just can’t install for you. Plenty of trustworthy installers in other states; we’ll point you in the right direction.
