With a slim depth of only 170 mm, the SOFAR 30kWh home battery gives our electricians greater flexibility when designing an installation for narrow walkways, compact garages and properties with limited usable wall space.
In a side-by-side installation, the SOFAR battery units are positioned next to each other along the wall. The slim 170 mm profile keeps the system close to the wall and reduces how far it projects into the surrounding area.
This configuration can be particularly useful along a narrow side walkway or inside a compact garage where two vehicles need to park and sufficient space for opening car doors is important.
A back-to-back SOFAR installation uses less width along the wall by arranging the battery sections in a deeper configuration. This can create an additional installation option when the available section of wall is limited.
Where the required 600 mm clearance to the left and right of the battery from nearby doors, windows or appliances restricts the available wall space, a back-to-back installation can provide a practical solution and help make a compliant installation possible.
When you choose Maxim, a dedicated qualified electrician is assigned to your project. The electrician who discusses your needs, confirms the installation details and prepares your quote is the same electrician who personally installs your system.
