About RV Solar Installs

A small Portland shop that designs and installs RV solar systems with care, quality, and honesty.

How we began

The whole thing started when Todd and his wife bought a 1966 Aladdin trailer and wanted a little more capability out of it—some extra power, a composting toilet, and a setup that made camping easier. That led to experimenting, learning, and eventually installing a more complete system on their first motorhome a few years later.

By the third full redesign, it was clear this wasn't just a side project anymore. The work itself was the part Todd enjoyed most, and RV Solar Installs was born.

Since then, Todd has built systems for all kinds of rigs, shaping each installation around individual layouts, wiring paths, and what owners actually want to run. His goal has always been to build quality systems that make sense to clients when they're on the road.

How we work

We're up-front about what solar can handle and where it has limits. It's better to understand tradeoffs early than fight with a system later.

"A good solar setup isn't about chasing big numbers. It's about building something that feels natural to use and easy to look after."

When your install is finished, you'll know what your system does, how it charges, and what to expect on longer trips or cloudy stretches. If something feels off down the road, you can reach out and get help from the person who built it.

What matters to us

We aim for simple, clear, and careful work. You'll always know how your system was built, and if questions come up later, you can get in touch with us directly.

Designs that fit real travel

We look at how you camp, how long you stay out, what you want to run, and how your rig is laid out. The system is planned around those details instead of a generic "biggest possible" build.

Clear, honest guidance

You get straightforward explanations and realistic expectations. No pressure and no pushing you toward gear you don't need.

Clean + careful installs

We take our time, route things properly, protect the wiring, and build layouts that make sense when you have to look at it later. Everything is labeled and easy to follow.

Support that stays available

If you have a question after the install, reach out. If you're on the road and something looks off, we help you figure it out. Ongoing support is part of the work, not an extra.

What other RVers are saying

We loved working with Todd! He knows his stuff and took the time to design the right solar setup for our needs. Unlike most installers, Todd was happy to use components we already had, rather than insisting on his own.
