Battery Backup – Home Power Source

Keeping your lights on means having a backup, uninterrupted power supply in the Bay Area. At Infinium Solar, Roofing, and Electric, we can help you install battery backup systems that automatically power on when the power grid fails. This uninterrupted power supply keeps your major home systems running, ensuring you have hot water and usable HVAC systems, even during blackouts.

For a whole-house battery backup system, consult with the Infinium experts. We’ll design a system from the ground up to meet your energy needs.

Home Battery Backup Basics

Home battery backup systems act similarly to generators in that they provide stored power that’s available when you need it. Since these systems are hard-wired into your home, they turn on automatically to provide power when you stop receiving it from other sources.

If you have solar power, your battery backup charges when you’re producing power and kicks on to power your home when the sun goes down. The amount of storage you have determines how long your home can run without a new infusion of power.

There are lots of things to consider when installing an uninterrupted power supply, including:

Size
What to power

How to recharge your system
Average time before service is restored

Benefits Of Battery Storage

Like a generator, battery storage makes your home more energy independent. You can charge your system when the grid is working in preparation for the next time it’s not. If you only power the most necessary systems, even a small battery can keep your home running for as much as a day without new power from the grid.

If you have a solar system, you can expand your house battery backup system to store all the extra power you generate, creating a comfortable safety net. When combined with daily power generation, you might never see your lights flicker.

There are lots of benefits to a battery backup system, including:

Uninterrupted power supply
Reduced risk of power surges
Pairs well with solar
No more rolling blackouts
