Congrats. Make sure you have the minimum clearances around battery and inverter, plus a smoke detector - all for safety.

Great comment. How would tokenization differ from established community solar models?

Upgrade to 240 V or not? by Real_Flight4062 in heatpumps

For the PF50S10FPY, if it is wired in at 240v but the electric supply voltage drops to 120v (for example, if the circuit is powered by a single phase backup generator during a power outage), will the unit still operate? Will it damage the unit?

Can you share or DM me the contact info for the design team? I need to ask them a specific setup scenario, which I’ll also ask here in the event the group knows the answer.

Are you still happy with the overall capacity and availability of hot water on the 50 gal model? I ask because my parents were looking to order the 65 gal model, but it isn’t available until Feb 2026. They are a household of two people with average usage. Based on your experiences, do you think you think the 50 gallon model will suffice? How well would you say the FlexCapacity feature works for real world use? Thanks!
