- Evening peaks. Families in Alberton use most of their power in the evening. A battery that carries the evening lets the panels save more.
- Estate rules. Many estates in Alberton have HOA or architectural rules on panel placement, visible inverters and approved contractors. Get approval in writing before paying a deposit.
- Factory roofs. Warehouses and factories in Alberton often have large IBR roofs. Installers should check purlin spacing and sheeting before designing a large array.
- Hail. Highveld hailstorms reach Alberton most summers. Ask for panels with a published hail rating and check your insurance covers the system.
