How Utah solar installation businesses use this financing
Common uses of funds:
- Inventory of panels, inverters, and mounting hardware
- Service trucks, lifts, and roof-safety equipment
- Bridge financing between installation and utility/tax-credit payouts
- Working capital for hiring installers
Typical loan size: Solar installer loans typically range from $50K to $1M, with EPC contractors accessing larger inventory and project lines.
Seasonality: Residential demand is steady year-round; tax-credit deadline (Dec) drives Q4 installation surges.
Most common reason for decline: Solar installers are often declined for high A/R from utility-credit delays or for thin operating history.

Frequently asked questions
How is invoice factoring different from accounts receivable financing?
Invoice factoring means selling your unpaid invoices to a factor at a small discount — the factor pays you up to 95% upfront and then collects from your customers directly, so no debt is added to your balance sheet. Accounts receivable financing means borrowing against those same invoices while keeping ownership: you continue collecting from customers yourself and the financing shows up on your books as debt. Factoring usually costs more but gets you out of collections; A/R financing is typically cheaper and keeps customer relationships private.
What business loans are available to Solar Installation owners in Utah?
Utah solar installation owners can qualify through Manu for small business loans ($10K–$10M), SBA 7(a) and 504 loans ($50K–$5M), business lines of credit, equipment financing, merchant cash advances, accounts receivable financing, and inventory lines. We work with lenders licensed to fund in Utah.
How fast can a Solar Installation business in Utah get funded?
Lines of credit and merchant cash advances can fund the same day for qualifying Utah solar installation businesses. Small business loans and equipment financing typically wire in 1–3 business days. SBA loans take 4–10 weeks because of government underwriting.
Are there Utah-specific SBA programs solar installation owners should know about?
Yes. The Utah District Office in Salt Lake City oversees SBA 7(a), 504, and microloan programs for Utah small businesses, with home-grown lender partners that often add their own Utah-focused incentives. Manu's network includes SBA-preferred lenders that fund in Utah.
What credit score does a Utah solar installation business need?
Minimum FICO depends on the product, not the state: equipment financing starts at 550, small business loans at 580, lines of credit at 600, and SBA loans at 660. Merchant cash advances and A/R financing have no minimum FICO when revenue is strong.
Will applying for a Utah solar installation loan hurt my credit?
No. Pre-qualification uses a soft credit pull that does not affect your score. A hard pull only happens if you accept a final offer from a lender.
