Hello from Nicaragua.
I’ll be upfront and honest. I don’t know anything about solar energy, systems, etc. All I know is that I want a system.
With that said, I had a local company come out to give an opinion and estimate on a system.
I live in the mountains with a temperature of a constant 65-75 deg F all year long. There is a rainy season and considered tropical.
My home is approx 6,000 sq ft. With all the added amenities less air conditioning and heating. All lights are LED. Stove, dryer, hot water heater are all propane. My big consumers are a submersible pump to transfer water to a 660 gal holding tank and a pressure pump to pressure water to the house.
I have a transfer switch connected to my panel to run the entire house on a 6.5kw gas generator.
Attached is the list of materials I was quoted for.
I post this on DIY because I have to treat it as I’m doing this myself, because outside of 1st world countries, things can get shady.
Please feel free to ask questions. I have no problems posting pics, giving details, etc. Like I said, I’m mostly ignorant to this.
If I need to translate, please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
