Hybrid Sola r-Ele c tric Sys te m • The system automatically prioritizes solar power, uses battery power at night, and switches to grid power as needed. • It provides battery backup during grid outages for about 2 sunless days or longer with intermittent sun. • Users can recharge batteries with a generator if the grid is down for an extended period. Cos t Be ne fits • The system significantly lowers electric utility costs year-round. • In summer, users may incur close to no electric utility costs, including for A/C. • In winter, users can expect a 25% to 40% reduction in costs, including for electric heating. Sola r Pa ne l Ma inte na nc e • Maintenance requires only 90 minutes once a year for all panels. • Panels should be rinsed after the spring pollen season using a hose with a jet nozzle. • Panels can be adjusted seasonally for maximum solar gain or left for optimal winter gain year-round. • Snow typically slides off main solar panels, but a snow rake can be used for roof-mounted panels if needed.
