Keep Your Power On – Anytime, Anywhere

Unexpected power outages can disrupt your life, causing inconvenience, loss of productivity, and even damage to essential appliances. Our Battery Backup Systems ensure that your home or business remains powered, even when the grid goes down.

How Battery Backup Works?

Illustration of how battery storage works with solar panels on a house. Numbered steps explain: 1) Solar panels convert sunlight to electricity. 2) Appliances use solar power, reducing grid reliance. 3) Excess solar energy is stored in a battery. 4) Battery powers home during no sunlight or grid issues. 5) Homes use grid power if battery is low.

During the day: Your solar panels generate electricity, powering your home or business while also charging your battery storage system.

During a power outage or at night : Your battery backup system automatically kicks in, supplying power to essential devices such as lighting, refrigerators, freezers, waters pumps, heating & cooling systems, medical equipments, security systems.

 FAQs

  • Why Do Quality Battery Backup Systems Cost More?

    • The Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) has strict regulations for solar panel and battery backup installations.

    High-quality backup systems undergo rigorous fire and electrical safety testing and are certified by the Ontario Electrical Safety Authority (ESA).

    The ESA inspects and approves every installation, ensuring compliance with safety standards.

    Many DIY solar products on Amazon or Facebook do not meet Canadian safety codes and cannot legally connect to a home’s electrical system.

  • Batteries store and discharge electricity, they don’t generate power.

    Your batteries are charged by:

    A solar charge controller (from solar panels).

    A battery charger inside the inverter (from the electrical grid or a generator).

    During a power outage, the battery automatically supplies power to a dedicated “critical loads” panel (e.g., fridge, lights, internet, furnace fan).

  • Yes, but it’s not efficient—you’d be draining one battery to charge another.

  • The Canadian Electrical Code has strict regulations on lithium battery installations.

    Most home installations require specific safety measures, making lithium setups more expensive and complex.

  • Yes! Non-lithium battery systems are cost-effective and work well for backup power.

  • We assess:

    Which appliances you want to back up (e.g., fridge, lights, furnace).

    Your home’s electrical system and potential battery installation locations.

    Large appliances like electric water heaters and AC units are not ideal for battery backup.
