About Fire Mountain Solar

Trusted, Experienced, and Committed to Doing Solar Right

Since 2001, Fire Mountain Solar (FMS) has proudly served homeowners and businesses with honest, knowledgeable solar and power system solutions across Washington and beyond. We know that choosing a solar partner is one of the most important decisions you’ll make — it’s not just about panels and equipment, it’s about trust, reliability, and long-term value.

Why Customers Choose Fire Mountain Solar

Deep Roots & Industry LeadershipFire Mountain Solar is one of Washington’s oldest and most experienced solar contracting companies. Our co-owner, Alana Nelson, helped lead the formation of the original Solar Installers of Washington and has served in leadership roles with the Washington Solar Energy Industries Association. Today, she remains actively involved with WASEIA, working alongside industry peers to help shape the future of solar in Washington and advocate for strong consumer protections — demonstrating our commitment not just to our own customers, but to a stronger, more trustworthy solar industry statewide.

Real Experience That MattersUnlike many companies focused only on standard grid-tie installations, we excel in complex and customized power solutions. From rugged off-grid systems to hybrid setups with battery backup, we have decades of real-world experience designing systems that meet unique goals reliably and efficiently. Our own journey began with designing an off-grid system on our founders’ remote property — long before “solar” was a household word — and that practical expertise shows in every project we do.

Personalized, Transparent ProcessWe take the time to educate you — not sell to you. We break down costs, explain how your system will perform, and walk you through every step from consultation to installation. We want you to choose solar with confidence, not confusion. This transparent, respectful communication builds trust and ensures you feel supported from day one.

Unmatched Local Reputation & Customer SatisfactionOur longstanding relationships with hundreds of homeowners and business owners speak volumes. Customers praise us for being professional, responsive, on time, and on budget, and they consistently highlight our clear communication and follow-through. We aren’t just another contractor — we’re a partner you can rely on well after your system goes live.

What Sets Us Apart from Other Reputable Solar Contractors

Industry Leadership & Commitment to StandardsWe don’t just follow best practices — we helped shape them in Washington. Our involvement in industry associations and legislative development shows our drive to elevate the entire solar industry.

Breadth of Expertise — From Simple to Highly CustomizedMany reputable contractors are focused on one type of solar project. Fire Mountain Solar excels across the full spectrum: grid-tie installations, customized hybrid systems, off-grid power solutions, energy storage integration, DIY installer support and technical consulting. Our team tackles what others won’t — and does it with precision and care.

Education Before ExpectationWe prioritize teaching you what you need to know over giving you sales pitches. The more informed you are, the better your decisions will be. It’s a philosophy that sets us apart and builds long-lasting trust.

Local Presence, Personalized ServiceAs a family-oriented company deeply rooted in our community, we treat your home or business like it’s our own. We’re not a faceless corporation — we’re your neighbors, and we stand behind our work long term.
