The Omaha 4-Bedroom Off-Grid Solar System suits a mid-large family holiday house with above-average energy needs. Who uses gas for cooking, hot water and ideally wood or gas fire in the winter? This system will enable you to run all the usual household appliances. It even offers the capacity to run several kitchen appliances at once whilst still doing the vacuuming and a load of washing!
This system is designed for daily power usage of 13-16kWh at most.
This kit set includes a free consultation with a qualified solar engineer who will customise your kit set, with everything needed for us or another qualified solar electrician to install. Click on the kitset that best meets your needs and choose "Review Order" at checkout. We will then call you to customise the kit set and provide information regarding installation and the cost of compliance.
This product must be installed by a certified electrician who can issue a Code of Compliance for completed work. AA Solar can provide this installation service, or you can choose from the list of SEANZ-endorsed installers and electricians.
We highly recommend increasing your days' autonomy from one day's reserve to cover those dull, stormy days. We can add more panels to your System and upgrade the battery bank (see Popular Upgrades).
The Omaha 4 Bedroom Off-Grid Solar PV System is ideal for people expecting to use an average of 13-16kWh/day and where the load required is 8kVA continuous (30 min) and up to 21kVA 5sec peak (values at 25°C). It comes with a 9.1kW solar array and a 17.76kWh battery bank.
At the heart of this Off-Grid System is the inverter/charger that provides a central unit to monitor and control all aspects of the System. We also include conduits, cables and miscellaneous items for the System that comply with AS/NZ Standards (refer to our website for details). This System is supplied with an outdoor battery cabinet so the battery bank can be installed outdoors. The remainder of the equipment is best suited for indoor installations, which can be supplied prewired on an installation panel upon request.
All solar packages can be altered to your individual needs by our dedicated team of Solar Specialists; give us a call or click on the package that most meets your needs and choose “Review Order” At checkout, a solar engineer will call you to discuss your needs and ensure you have the best solution for your needs.

How Much Power Will I Have?
Your System has twenty panels; the 9.1kW solar arrays' average daily power production will be between 15-19kWh in winter and up to 33-41kWh in summer.
Pro Tip: We highly recommend adding an auto-start generator for year-round living. Provide backup power when the weather is terrible, and your total solar generation is insufficient to cover your energy needs and keep your battery bank full.
What Can Be Powered
This system will power all the power requirements of a typical energy-conscious home, with gas cooking, hot water, and up to 8kVA peak demand in 30 minutes.

- All small appliances such as jugs, toasters, and microwaves create variable loads; please discuss planned usage with your trusted AA Solar Engineer. The key is to ensure they are all used in stages. Remember that you have a total of 7kVA continuous, 8kVA for 30 minutes, and 21kVA for 5sec (values at 25°C) available.
This System can not support high-wattage equipment such as electric induction cooking and ovens.
Note: AC loads must stay within the inverter's limitations.
