3 Solar Myths Ogden Homeowners Believe (That Cost Them Money)
These misconceptions keep Ogden homeowners from going solar — and losing thousands in potential savings every year.
"Ogden's lower electricity rates mean solar doesn't pencil out"
Even at slightly lower RMP rates, Ogden homeowners paying $135/month save $123/month ($1,476/year) after solar. Over 25 years that's $36,900 in savings — well above the $16,380 net system cost after ITC.
"Ogden's older homes won't pass city inspection after solar"
Elite Electric's licensed electricians ensure every Ogden solar installation meets current NEC 2023 standards and Ogden City building codes. We have a near-perfect first-pass inspection record across Weber County.
"Northern Utah gets too much snow for solar to be practical"
Ogden averages 60+ inches of annual snowfall, but solar panels on angled roofs shed snow within hours of sunshine. Cold, clear winter days are actually more efficient for panel electronics than hot summer days. Annual production impact from snow is 5–8% — not significant.
