WE ARE SOLAR POWERED!
With that comes some challenges but we can say we our trying to do our part. We just wanted to make you aware of a few details. We don’t have the same capacity as your house. A house can have 48000W, while we have 3000W.Anything 10KW in solar is $10000+++ as the wattage goes up. So please understand power is not unlimited! The good news it’s not a continuous cost as well there is not a continuous impact on the environment. Just at production and disposal. Solar system components can last over 20 years. All this being said, please be mindful of your power usage. This is a 110V 60hz system. Will work with all north American devices.
Things to note
• Do not run the oven and the kettle at the same time that will "pop" the breaker
• Do not plug the oven or kettle into another outlet as this will have the AC on at the same time and will pop the breaker
• Please do your best to turn lights and electronics off when not in use.
• Cloudy days you have to be more aware of power use as generation is lower
•The AC/heat pump is very efficient and will work down to -15. If it’s a hot sunny day you can pump the AC all afternoon it doesn’t cost anyone any extra!
It’s a simple small system and we hope you enjoy the benefits of solar!
