Technical FAQs 4

How do I set up a solar storage tank?

Switch on the electrical supply at the power outlet to the solar control unit. The power outlet must be switched on for the solar control unit to operate and solar gain to be achieved. Switch on the electrical supply at the isolating switch to the solar storage tank. Check and if required reset the timer, if one is installed.

Why should you install a residential energy storage system?

As the demand for renewable energy and self-sufficient power systems rises, residential energy storage system installation has become a key solution for homeowners seeking reliability, sustainability, and control over their energy usage.

What is a residential energy storage system?

A residential energy storage system (RESS) is a setup that stores electricity generated from renewable sources (typically solar) or drawn from the grid during off-peak hours. The stored energy can then be used when demand spikes, during power cuts, or at night when solar panels are inactive.

What are the benefits of a home energy storage system?

One of the biggest advantages of a home energy storage system is that it reduces your reliance on the traditional electrical grid. Once energy is generated and stored, you can use the stored energy generated in your system activity instead of the grid, moving you closer to energy autonomy. 2. Backup Power in Outages
