Tried stacking the inverters a few years ago and found out one had to be replaced. Out of phase, and the power company won. With a transformer, does it bring in phase ?

So how far away from the original well does the "Bleed" well need to be to ensure optimum performance ?

Yes, I've wondered how fast it would heat things up inside the well. May greatly depend on the aquifers size and its ability to disperse the heat fast enough. As the water cools, it drops down...

Hmmm... Would be costly to upgrade all the controllers, relays and sensitive wiring. Thinking I'll stick with what I've got. Only other option is to isolate 120v circuits on the Backup inverter. Oh...

Yes, 12v system. 120v output inverter PS. Drawing 30-40 amps right now.

Completely safe on pumping and (dumping) back to the same permeable source zone. In fact, with a whole house filter, would return it in better quality than started with little or no corrosion in the...

Anyone has one of these systems installed already ? Looking for data on subject.

Recently, I've contacted Jay Egg of EggGeothermal. Author of Geothermal HVAC book now published. Quickly I've...

Any suggestions on buying a 4000+ watt 240v psw inverter ? Brand ?

Yes, will work. Has been in commission for about 2 months now and under control. The shoreline should be the power company. Generator side should be your solar/wind source wiring 120v/240v ac...

Found some loose connections on the quick disconnect screws to the main lines. Voltage between the two is now dead on.

Hey all ! Got a success story to share converting my Solar/Wind System from Manual transfer switch to ATS stand alone setup. Total cost was around $275 and some wiring, which was on hand already.

As an experiment, have a digital multi meter handy and connected to the batteries for comparison study. May have to recreate the problem to get timely results.

On a different note, my pot relay...

Is it possible that the genny is trying to charge the batteries while running the emg system? Or is the inverters potentiometer whacky? My inverters pot is off by almost one volt on the plus side...

Everyone's correct in their own way. Chances are better in winning the lottery than being audited when taken to a tax accountant. Just for insight, call your local accountant to check your options....

Not too concerned about the wind since it's low amps and directly hooked up to battery bank.

Batteries get PM'd every 3 months of hard work. Today, officially winter, doesn't pose a direct...

Hmmmm. Already has a diversion load, yet not big enough to take everything mother nature can give. I take it your oil heater is A/C, as mine is D/C output diversion.

Was thinking about it and...

So buy the stuff, then put it on shelf, installed, done. One installation this year, another one next year. Two installations, one project.

Scared ? Do it next year. The IRS can go after...

That's what receipts are for, save them against IRS audit, if applicable. Everything stated earlier is based on experience, not theory.

Go ahead and buy everything you need (equipment only) for this year. Get a Federal tax credit for it 30% this tax year. Up to $6500 tax credit, roughly $22000 spent on equipment not including...

Suggestions for leaving the Solar/Wind array battery bank on vacation. Don't care too much about leaving the battery banks over charge while I'm on vacation. Would it be wise to leave the whole...
