Lafayette outage? Your battery switches on by itself

What a battery does for a Lafayette home

When the grid goes down in Lafayette, a battery backup system picks up the load on its own and keeps the circuits you chose running. It is a compact, wall-mounted unit that holds a charge for the next outage. The same licensed electricians who do panel work wire it in and take care of the permit.

Circuits worth protecting

• Medical equipment: CPAP machines and oxygen concentrators.
• Refrigeration: the refrigerator and freezer, so food is not lost.
• Connectivity: your router, laptops, and phones stay charged.
• Comfort: lights, security, and select heating or cooling.

Which circuits ride on the battery depends on the battery size and your panel. We map that out with you during the free consultation.

Enphase, Sigenergy, and FranklinWH options

For a Lafayette home, we lay out Enphase, Sigenergy, and FranklinWH batteries against your home and your solar at the free quote.

Enphase

The Enphase option is modular: start with the storage you need now and add more later. It uses lithium iron phosphate (LFP) chemistry. It works with Enphase microinverters, and you can watch it all in the Enphase app.

Sigenergy and FranklinWH

These two are a good fit when a Lafayette home already has solar, because they can be added without swapping the system out. Each can also accept a 240 volt portable generator as a backup input.

Weighing a generator as well? See our whole-house generator option.

Do you need solar for a battery?

For your Lafayette home, you do not need solar panels to get a battery. A battery can charge from the grid or from solar, and we set it up either way.

Paired with solar, the battery does double duty: it holds your daytime production for use after dark and during an outage.

If your panels were put in by a company that is no longer around, we can still help. See our solar service for existing and orphaned systems.

Four steps, one team

Installing a battery in Lafayette takes four steps, from a free consultation through permit and install to activation.

1. Consultation and design: we review your panel, your solar if you have it, and your backup goals.
2. Permitting and paperwork: the permit and the paperwork are ours to file; we also look for incentives that apply.
3. Installation: in-house electricians do the wiring and mounting.
4. Activation and support: we power it up, check it, and support you after.

This work needs a permit, and getting it is our job.
