Advantages of the Whole-Home Backup Solution over Traditional Power Backup Solutions
The typical gas generator option is probably what most of us consider when considering a home power backup solution, however, this choice may not always be the ideal one. The gas generator emits polluting gases such as CO, Hydrocarbon, and Oxynitride, which have a very high impact on the environment. The high maintenance costs and the space limitation of having to be placed outdoors also make it a poor solution for household power generation. In contrast, EcoFlow whole-home backup solution not only solves the problem of power backup in the event of a power outage but also offers a new generation of consumers the possibility of a pollution-free, noise-free, and easy-to-install electricity solution. Besides, EcoFlow is compatible with solar panels and harnesses free power from the sun.
The EcoFlow Whole-Home Backup Solution can be installed in two ways
EcoFlow Whole-home backup solution provides consumers with the flexibility to choose between installing the system with a Transfer switch/Inlet box or utilizing intelligent power management through a Smart Control Panel. It also works with the interlock kit on the load center if there is no transfer switch installed.
