Inspections and appraisals: We can work with real estate agents, home buyers and sellers, and home and business owners to determine the condition and safety of installed equipment. Don't get burned...or be in danger of burning up. Dan Fink is a NABCEP-certified PV System Inspector.
Disaster recovery: After a fire, flood or other disaster, it's critical to have your systems inspected for inspected for damage and safety.
Consulting: Make sure your ideas are workable before you break ground or start buying equipment. Hourly rates; by email, phone or in person.
Site assessments: An accurate site assessment is critical to successful system design and operation. We are trained in solar, wind, hydro, water pumping, and communications site assessments and will provide you with a detailed report so you can best site your equipment.
Installing solar 100 miles from the nearest road is a challenge, but we have ways to do it! Installations in the bush are always an adventure.
Solar panels are too big to fit inside a heli, and lead-acid batteries are HAZMAT, no-go from the pilot Sure, stow the batteries in the side basket, but then the ship is unbalanced. So this is how we do it up in Canada at the Damdochax River Lodge, eh? Along with gasoline cans, drums of Jet-A, propane tanks, chainsaws, brush hogs, food, (beer), appliances, sawmills, ATVs, jetboats....
Specializing in remote, off-grid installations has not been particularly profitable. But it sure is fun! Bring it on, we can go anywhere.
