Here's the inverter and battery for $1105:

And here are the solar panels for $93.34/each:

$1105 + ($93.34x12) = $2225
Doesn't include the solar panel clips and some of the wiring, but those can certainly be obtained for much less than the $425 price difference.
Use a solar calculator for your area. Sun hours times 2340w is how much you'll generate(generous estimate, weather conditions and mounting angle and inefficiency will cut that down).
In ideal conditions you'll generate 14kwh of power. And have 5kwh of battery storage at night.
For your usage, you probably want around 12-15kw of solar with 60kwh of storage(for extended bad weather conditions) enough to cover daily usage and charge the batteries during the day

For anyone who might know and could help:
Overall, if I bought this, can I get a local really good handyman to do the mounting work, and then have an electrician hook it up, to keep labor costs low? How much labor is typically involved in setting this up, from box to fully functioning?

There's the kit that has the rails with the brackets for $53. It will fit 4 large solar panels or 5 smaller panels. I can confirm this because I've purchased one set and it fits 5 (100 Watt) Solar Panels.
Of course only get this kit if the roof is on the slope. If you're on a flat roof then you need to get a kit that is at an angle. This helps with keeping dust off and rain sliding off.
I would suggest to save cost to install it yourself. You just need roof patch sealant and a caulk gun. Apply to where you drill holes in your roof. I would not know the cost for this done by a handy man.
As for installation; Eco-Worthy comes with guides and also after sale support. You only need electrician if you want to integrate it with your current house power. If you do go through this route, I would consult with an electrician first.

My usage is about 2000kwh/month in winter and 2500kwh/month in summer (last September was 3000 not sure why) ðŸ˜

Any idea what is required to hook this up to fuse box and costs associated with it?
