Home Battery Backup Systems in Drayton Plains

For many Drayton Plains homes, battery backup is an alternative or a companion to a generator. It keeps essentials such as the sump pump, refrigerator, furnace blower and internet running, and it pairs naturally with solar.

Battery Backup Installation for Drayton Plains homes and businesses

Metro Detroit homes work their electrical systems hard, and more so every year as EV chargers, central air and home offices are added. In Drayton Plains and across Oakland County, we check the capacity of the panel and service before we begin battery backup installation, so that nothing new is hung on a system that is already full.

Battery or generator?

Batteries are silent, automatic and need almost no maintenance, and they can recharge from solar. Their limit is capacity: a battery covers hours to a day or two of essentials, depending on its size and your loads. A standby generator runs as long as it has fuel. In parts of Michigan where multi-day winter outages are possible, some homeowners choose both. We will go through your loads and outage history in Drayton Plains and give you a straight recommendation.
