Works with storage
When a Hanchu battery is selected, the hybrid inverter is part of the system that manages charging and stored-energy use.
03
Connects to monitoring
The installed Hanchu setup provides app and online monitoring so you can access relevant system information after handover.
Helpful answers
Questions You May Be Asking
Where will the inverter be installed?+
The proposed location is discussed and confirmed at survey, taking account of cable routes, access, ventilation and the rest of the system design.
Does an inverter need a battery?+
No. A solar-only system can use an inverter without battery storage. A battery is an optional part of a wider solar-and-storage design.
