See below for our off grid upgrade options and pricing;
Solar Power can be added as an upgrade to all our models and custom designs. The panels are installed in the Tiny House`s roof and depending on the roof’s shape and design will affect the amount of panels that may be installed. Another, more practical option is to have the solar panels mounted on the ground.
Please keep in mind that going off grid is an in-depth process and may require you to modify some of your habits and possibly reduce your energy consumption. Some appliances have a very high-energy consumption and may need to be replaced by more energy efficient options. Appliances such as: Air Conditioning, electric kettles, electric toasters, electric cooktops and ovens may need to be substituted for more energy efficient alternatives when going off grid.
It's also important to consider the use of an external power source for backup when unwanted weather changes occur. The use of a generator may be a good option in this case.
We have tailored Solar system packages to suit most energy requirements. All our packages come with Lithium batteries. Technology has developed immensely to incorporate the use of Lithium batteries which are smaller and weigh considerably less than the old AGM batteries.
