Add Onto Your Existing System
Upgrade Your System – NRS Approved Only ✅
We can easily expand your existing solar setup, provided your current system is NRS-approved. This ensures it meets national safety and performance standards. Not sure if your system qualifies? No problem – you can check the official NRS-approved list to confirm it’s verified and safe to upgrade.
Boost Your Daily Savings Potential ☀️
Looking to get even more value from the sun? By adding more solar panels, you can generate additional electricity during the
day – helping you save more on energy costs and reducing your reliance on the grid.
Enjoy More Power Through the Night 🔋
Never worry about nighttime outages again. By adding an extra battery, you’ll store more of the energy your system generates
during the day – giving you reliable power when you need it most, even after the sun goes down.
Run More Appliances During Outages ⚡️
Need to power more devices or keep your home running longer during load-shedding? By adding another inverter or increasing the capacity of your existing one, you can run more appliances, improve energy efficiency, and extend the lifespan of your entire solar system.
BONUS – Didn’t Install With Us? No Problem! 🎉
Even if your solar system wasn’t installed by Alumo, we can still help you upgrade or expand it – as long as it meets NRS approval standards. Our team will assess your setup, ensure everything is compliant, and seamlessly handle the add-ons for
you.
