In a nutshell planning a new 5kw system with battery backup. No grid tie. This will be professionally installed on a new home build in the Ozarks where summer temps reach 100 degrees on warm days.
Have gotten a quote for a system with an 8kW Sol-Ark inverter with EMP protection (5 year warranty) but am now wondering if Enphase micro-inverters would be a better way to go especially with the 25 year warranties. Have to admit the warranty difference seems huge especially considering the price! Plus this is a passive cooled home so the string inverter won't be kept at a comfy 70 degrees all summer.
Thoughts? I want a resilient long lasting system.
