How to Find the Right Power Inverter for Homes

 

Let Wetility guide you through what to look out for when choosing the right power inverter for home, thereby ensuring that you are no longer hindered by electricity disruptions.    

 

1.      What needs to remain powered when the lights go out?

An inverter is an investment in your power security. So, before buying one you need to assess what must remain powered during outages. This may require some calculations as the power ratings of your appliances and devices need to be measured. This will assist you in determining the total consumption of the household items that must operate on the inverter. Compare this to the alternate current (AC) rating of the inverter to ensure that there is no overloading.

 

2.      Are the battery and inverter compatible?

A mismatch between your battery’s power output and the inverter's capabilities can lead to performance issues. Ensure you have the battery specifications readily available when choosing an inverter to guarantee optimal compatibility and efficiency.

 

3.      Is there service support after purchase?

Purchasing a quality power inverter from a reputable company should come with a warranty and support. Reliable customer and service support is vital in maintaining optimal performance.

 

4.      Will an inverter protect my appliances from power surges?

Using a power inverter as a backup to the grid supply means that your essential appliances and devices need to be protected from power surges that can damage them. Look for features such as surge protection and smart geyser controls, to name a few.

 

5.      Is there a way I can monitor the performance of my inverter?

Select an inverter that offers remote monitoring and control capabilities via smartphone apps. This enhances convenience and gives you access to additional features while tracking the performance of your system.

 

6.      What if I need to upgrade my system?

Energy needs change and it is important to find an inverter that allows for scalability. You must be able to add more solar panels and lithium-ion batteries and have the option to upgrade your inverter to accommodate these changes.
