DIY solar power with Pappa, the diy solar guy
DIY solar guy off grid projects with Pappa discusses practical uses for the power you produce. We are unboxing, connecting, programming, testing new products with different array setups .We discuss how we built a off grid solar system with no experience and how it works. Installing mini split heat pumps that run off solar. Running whole house heat pumps that air condition and heat house upstairs and downstairs 7/24 with solar and battery bank. We also run our pool pump 7/24 with only solar and battery bank. We can even run 2 different pool heat pumps pool heaters to keep our pool heated in the winter and cool the water in the summer heat. We share the many uses with the power we produce using solar in day and stored battery backup to run appliances at night. We live in a city but use off grid to reduce our power consumption by over 80 percent. The following links will take you our affiliate partners. Check out our over 100 videos to see what is possible with diy solar.
