Client Profile
This home in the outer reaches of Gallatin County is inhabited by a young couple and their two children, and like many others in the area they wanted to seek clean, renewable power production for their daily electrical needs. But they also had a practical focus on a back-up power supply; the ability to pump water from their well, keep their boiler controls functioning, and keep their store of game meat frozen during an extended power outage was a major goal for the project. OnSite Energy applied it's custom design/build services for their home, their mechanical systems, and the customer's energy habits to achieve this goal with a state-of-the-art 'grid-tie battery back-up' solar system.
