Can't tell you the number of times we get asked how many solar panels are needed. You did a fantastic job of explaining that as well as the wiring. Great job, Taddy!

I have been monitoring my electric consumption with an Emporia monitor. MY AC is about 40% of electric bill. Based on the current cost of the EG4 system, I think my ROI is about 24 months. I am in the process of installing the 24K unit, 7 bifacial Sirus 410W panels, with the Signature Solar ground mount. I have a clear line of sunlight up until 5pm each day. I don't plan to hook up the unit to my grid power and will see if i can make a huge dent in my heating and cooling costs. Thanks for the video.

I think I remember seeing a Lennox system with PV inputs a while back. It'd be awesome to see more HVAC units like this, perhaps even larger 4 ton units. I've maxed out my PV inverter and still draw a considerable amount of power from the grid. Since most of my power is from cooling (TX), a larger 4 ton central/multi zone with PV input would be a cheaper (since kill two birds with one stone) way to add solar capacity without having to sell power to the city and buying it back at a higher rate.

Being in the HVAC Business my question is how are you going to fix it when it breaks down? I would like to buy one but I think I'm just gonna buy a regular mini split and add solar to the house. They seem to be the only ones making a solar unit and looks to be good deal till it doesn't work one day

What about going over the 12 amp rating with solar panels. I was told you can’t get panels that are rated above 12 amps ISC or it will damage the built in inverter.

Dont be fooled by the SEER2 rating on these units
@TaddyDigest3 ай бұрын
why
@LibertyDIY2 ай бұрын
@TaddyDigest They claim 29.5 SEER2 and actual EER is 13.5 or 385% efficient at 95F, which is not far off from a non inverter window unit. For comparison the best Fujitsu is rated at 33 SEER2 and actual EER is 18.2 or 530% at 95F which is possibly the most efficient available (well over 800% efficient at 3000 BTU minimal load) The EER ratings can be slightly adjusted by "rating" the unit near its maximum BTU or rating at a much lower BTU, which essentially over sizes or undersizes the coils. So with the EG4 you are getting a lot less machine than the BTU implies and with the Fujitsu or Mitsubishi youre getting a lot more machine, especially when it comes to heating.

@LibertyDIY16 күн бұрын
@m2o2u Thats a good question, probably because its a bit too complex for the typical buyer to sort through. Im surprised they stretched the number that far. The trick is to focus on EER instead of SEER and make sure to get an inverter unit so you get the partial-load efficiency benefits.
