FAQ
Tracking & Delivery
What shipping carriers do you use?
For small parcel deliveries, we mostly use UPS Ground and occasionally USPS. For freight deliveries, we use FedEx Freight.
When will my order be shipped?
If you place your order before 2pm, we will ship out your system the same day! For freight orders, we kindly ask for 1-2 days to ship your system to you.
Can I change my delivery address?
Yes! Please reach out to our Customer Service team and we can change your address before it ships out, or redirect your packages during transit.
How can I track my order?
You will be sent a tracking number to the email you provided once your order is scanned and in transit!
How do I know I have received my complete order?
The tracking link will display all the packages in your delivery- if all are stated as “delivered”, you are
set!
What if parts of my order come separately?
That’s okay! Multiple package shipments typically get split up during the shipping process but shouldn’t be too far behind the others! You should be able to track these down with the tracking link provided.
Why haven’t I received my freight shipment yet?
To receive freight, we require a scheduled delivery. Please call FedEx Freight/other courier used for a delivery appointment.
Delivery Issues
How can I change my order after it’s been placed?
We recommend you contact us immediately upon realizing you need to make a change on your order. We will make sure you get what you need!
Some of my items have been damaged in transit- what do I do?
Shipping damage is frustrating! Sometimes, it’s luckily just box damage, so please make sure to unbox everything and email shipping@ruralpowersystems.com (or text us below) with any photos of damaged items. Pictures are helpful to us in assessing how we package our orders and helps prevent problems in the future. Replacements will be promptly arranged with our Customer Service team.
Are the solar panels ok?
The 100w solar panels are always boxed separately, 2 per box to protect the glass best we can. Just to save an extra trip, take a peek in those boxes before you head out to the install site. Solar Panels get dented aluminum frames sometimes on their voyage, but they are fully functional unless the glass on the front is shattered (it will be fully spider webbed if broken!) It's only a few a year but it's worth a peek in there to make sure the glass is fine!
My order hasn’t moved during transit for a while/packages are missing- what do I do?
Please reach out to our Customer Service team with one of the methods below. We will initiate a lost investigation. Please allow us 24hrs to look into the situation.
I did not receive the correct parts.
While we strive for perfection and satisfaction every day, sometimes, mistakes regrettably happen. Our greatness as a company is rooted in taking care of people in an extraordinary way, which means recognizing & admitting to our mistakes. We are so sorry you received the incorrect parts and we will make it right for you! Please contact our Customer Service team so we can get the correct parts shipped out to you ASAP!

I got my pump going in March and it’s worked perfectly ever since (it’s middle of August now). I’m pumping from a hand dug well and up to a black plastic storage tank that I put cedar fence pickets around. The tank is 190 feet away and the slope is about a six percent grade. Pump seems to have plenty of power to push it up. You make a great product that is pretty easy to understand and install. It’s my first time doing something like this and you guys make me look good.
I just wanted to add that we’ve had two PG&E outages of 3-4 hours each
since installing the RPS pump and batteries and it was amazing to be able to
keep all the water under pressure, even early in the morning before the sun
was up.
