Install SUNPOWER SOLAR + NEOVOLTA ENERGY STORAGE & Remove & Replace Solar Pool Heating System

SolarTech was recently contacted by the Scheiner family to assess their energy consumption and to advise on a solar energy solution for their home. After visiting with the Scheiners, they decided to add a SunPower 8.3kW Equinox Solar System paired with NeoVolta NV14 Energy Storage and upgrade their solar pool heating system to a new SwimJoy system.

SolarTech was able to maximize the roof planes creating an optimal layout for the solar array and the solar pool heating panels creating a longer swim season for the family while achieving maximum energy savings.  Installing the energy storage system allows the Scheiner family to maintain their critical loads (IE: refrigerator, kitchen lights, bedroom lights, garage door) in the event of a blackout.  With these recommendations, they are saving more money compared to paying the utility and achieve energy independence.

“SolarTech did a great job installing a home solar system and a pool solar system. Great staff, courteous and efficient. They explained everything clearly, answered all questions and were quick to respond to any questions. Particularly helpful, was how they explained the app used to monitor the system. Our initial meeting with Ali was straight forward. He was extremely knowledgeable and helped us through the process of determining our needs.”
