You have done your calculations, now you know what your energy needs will be. The second step in your process would therefore be to determine where to install your system so that it is as efficient as possible.
So here's a series of tips and tricks to find your system's ideal location:
-Find the south and avoid shaded
-Choosing the right type of wiring
-Choose its type of battery
Find the south and avoid shaded
To reach their full potential, the panels must be facing due south and have direct access to the sun. By finding the south and doing some location on its land, we make sure that the panels will face the sun without any TREE coming between the two.
To find the south, we take out the good old compass and we note it all on a map. There are also different applications that allow you to find the optimal orientation. Talk to our technical team and one of our agents will be a pleasure to guide you to the right tool.
To avoid shaded, find an uncovered place to place your panels.
N. B. If you are looking at installing your panels on your roof, please make sure it has summer redone recently to avoid having to do the duplicate work.
Choose its type of wiring
Another factor to consider is the space between the panels and the electrical box. Plus the distance will be great, plus the size of the cables will also be in order to be able to drive the energy without loss.
For security reasons, we advise you that they are not too far from each other.
Also, distance is an element of our system with which we can play and reduce our bill, which we always like to do when possible!
Choose your type of battery
There are different types of batteries to different energy reserve capacities. You should know that some batteries are plus adapted to small spaces, others to enclosed spaces, that there are some that have interesting options such as Bluetooth or the ability to be self-heating.
In tous cas, before choosing one in particular, here are factors to consider:
-Do I have a lot of space?
-Will I store it in a closed space
-Will I need to move it
Not to mention its needs in energy reserves.
We will come back in the following weeks with a complete file on the batteries to allow you to see plus clearly between the different types of batteries that exist and the possibilities of each.
