Battery-Ready Solar Upgrades for Hillside Brick Homes in Chapel Hill, Brisbane
You decided it was time to add a battery, only to be told the inverter on your existing system cannot talk to one. Now you are trying to work out whether to replace the inverter, add a second one or start again from scratch. In Chapel Hill, where a lot of homes went solar years before batteries were on anyone's radar, we have this conversation regularly.
Chapel Hill is built across steep slopes, with plenty of 1980s and 1990s brick homes on tiled roofs and newer builds tucked into the hillside. Many roofs face east and west, and gum trees on the ridges and in the gullies shade parts of the array at different times of the day. Older string inverters were often sized only for the original panels, with no allowance for storage. Getting a battery to work well usually means rethinking the inverter, and sometimes the layout, rather than simply bolting a box to the wall.
Fallon Solutions specialises in upgrading older Chapel Hill systems for storage, alongside complete solar installation for homes starting fresh. Our battery and solar installers will check your current equipment and give you clear choices, from a hybrid inverter swap to a full redesign.
