Installation
Installation is included as part of the package we offer. This covers all the work we need to do for the average domestic installation. As part of the pre-installation process we'll ask you for photos of the proposed location and the fuse box. If we see from these that any additional work is required, we'll quote you for those before you commit.
The Powervault 3 can be installed in most internal locations, such as garage, utility room, basement or under the stairs. It's not suitable for external locations and we don't recommend installing it in loft spaces. Powervault 3 will be floor mounted and fixed to the wall for stability. It'll need to be connected to the internet at all times. See the installation guide and additional works price list.
