Land and Sea Solar offers solar water heaters, grid-tie photovoltaic systems, RV and cabin systems, hydro-electric systems, backup generators and wind energy systems. The grid-tie PV system interfaces with the utility meter and transfers the extra energy to the utility grid. The process of converting DC power into AC power and then transferring the extra power to the utility grid is done with inverters. The inverters without batteries operate through utility power or with the battery backup system.
The company offers customized systems based on lifestyle, requirements, location and price. Land and Sea Solar can help the customer to obtain necessary permits, along with the related paperwork, to install a turnkey grid-tie solar system. The company also evaluates the site before installing a grid-tie solar system and they have the necessary tools to measure the potential areas. This survey helps the company to prepare a quote for the grid-tie solar system that will be suitable for that particular site.
The grid-tie system can be installed in east or west to capture enough sunlight. Back-up power can be done through batteries or small generators during outages. When 220V loads are involved, users need to install small generators during blackouts. Depending on the usage and the daily kilowatt hour consumption, the company determines the system size needed for the customers.
