Adding solar panels to an existing building remains possible. Planning them from the drawings goes further: the roof, the conduits and the place of the batteries are designed for the installation.
Start from the needs
Sizing starts from the uses: lighting, appliances, water pumping, professional equipment. This survey sets the power of the panels and the capacity of the batteries.
Plan a place for each part
- A clear roof, with no shade falling on the panels.
- A ventilated room for the batteries and the inverter.
- Conduits built into the walls, rather than cables added afterwards.
Think of upkeep
A solar installation needs little upkeep. Regular cleaning of the panels and a check of the batteries extend its life.
