The Heat is On

Written By Madeline Acri

Summer is heating up and installers are busier than ever-mounting panels on roofs, inverters on walls, and batteries in cabinets. With the nation experiencing extreme heat in the Pacific Northwest and California, customers are eager to keep their solar on during outages. As storage gains popularity and momentum, there are more options to choose from and it can make your head spin! 

Homeowners want equipment from a brand they trust, and installers want those brands to build equipment that is reliable, easy to install, and has a quality monitoring platform. While there is a lot of beneficial information on manufacturer data sheets and marketing materials, there is still much to discover when an installer unwraps and plugs in their equipment on the job site. Commissioning guides provide step-by-step instructions to connect equipment and register your warranty plan. Each manufacturer has its own nuances – some have integrated generator start functionality, while others have it as a separate accessory or no generator integration at all. Others will have integrated monitoring capabilities while others have separate communication cards or boxes. 

Understanding the intricacies of each brand will prove to homeowners what makes you an expert. Coming up, we will launch a webinar highlighting what makes each storage solution unique. These are the “trade secrets” you will not want to miss.
