Solar Side Up is probably Colorado's best-kept secret.

We started as the go-to installer for companies that sold solar early before solar "became a thing".

Our team is here to help you find custom solutions for your unique energy needs.

We sell solar panels, inverters, racking, batteries, and roofing too! Our industry contacts and connections help to purchase these items at the best prices. This enables us to pass on the best pricing to you.

Great company!

I have no compaints, only praise. Solar Side Up was the most honest and straight-forward company I talked to for this project. They gave me the most competitive offer and they accommodated every request that I had. They responded immediately to all of my emails and went above and beyond my expectations. Their customer service was exemplary. My system is performing great, and I couldn't be happier with the whole process. Thanks, Solar Side Up!

No regrets

We recently hired SSU to install solar panels and a battery in our house in Denver. SSU came out on top after pretty extensive discussions with several other companies, and all has gone great so far. They've been very communicative and worked with us when Xcel threw some unexpected wrenches into the process. Haven't had to go back to SSU for help with any issues after we got solar up and running yet, so I can't speak to that. But of course, no issues so far is a good thing, and I would be very surprised if they ghosted us at that point. The whole team over there has really gone above and beyond to be responsive thus far.

Excellent solar power experience with Solar Side Up

With a recent purchase of an EV, rising utilities costs, and a large federal subsidy on the table, my wife and I decided to get solar power for our house. After some negative experiences with door-to-door solar salespeople, we did some research and found EnergySage, who promptly got us in contact with multiple local solar power companies. After talking with each, we found Solar Side Up to be the best cost per quality and our sales rep Brian to be truly exceptional. He was able to answer all of our questions about the panels themselves, the installation process, general details about solar companies, all without being pushy like many of the other reps we talked to. The installation took a little longer to get started due to weather, but once the crew got to our home it took less than a day for them to get everything installed and our system was cleared by our energy company just a few weeks later (this is the typical procedure). We are very grateful to EnergySage and Solar Side Up (especially Brian and Kirsten) for making the process of adding solar power to our home straightforward and efficient.

Attention to detail and great communication

Love working with the team at Solar Side Up! Great communication is the key to working relationships and these folks do that well. I am pleased with the follow-up on every detail. I’m very happy with my solar installation.

Excellent company

I am very pleased with Solar Side Up. The office always quickly responded to any questions. The scheduling was handled well and was aligned with our personal plans. The whole process, including the permitting and approval from the city of Loveland was very smooth. The company handled all of the paperwork and, as homeowner, there was almost no work. The company created an excellent set of documentation and left the homeowner with a complete set of drawings The crew that did the installation worked hard, was very knowledgeable, and exceeded expectations. Overall, I highly recommend Solar Side up.
