Why Off Grid ?
Solar-FIT is about developing complete, off grid solutions. What this means is no more hydro bills with over-inflated delivery charges, seasonal dwelling tariffs and debt retirement costs. Each system we design is unique and will produce reliable power 100% of the time and for 100% of your needs. The technology is more available and our aim is to make you aware of what solar technology is available and how best to utilize it for your lifestyle.
Its about getting the right person for the job!!
As most homes operate on AC (alternating current) electricity, a Master Electrician is required by Ontario Building Code to connect the AC side of your system to the house. They typically do not have the training or expertise with the DC (direct current) side of an off-grid system. Most elements of an off-grid system develop DC power, and a Certified Photovoltaic Technician is trained to design and develop DC systems including location, balance and batteries. This allows us to build a cost effective and balanced system for each individual client. Photoelectric, Sun Power or Solar panel systems need to be installed with a great deal of consideration. A poorly installed solar panel system will produce very little power. A poorly balanced system will produce excess power when not required, and not enough when it is required. We are able to balance systems with wind turbines, water hydro and generators according to your individual requirements. We then work with our Master Electrician to ensure all code requirements of the system are met.
We live completely off grid year round. We want to help you to understand that it is totally feasible to live off grid in complete comfort whether it be year round or seasonal only. As a potential client we invite you to come and experience the modern off grid life style.
