Arizona’s abundant sunshine can do more than power your home for the day. Your system may generate excess energy that can be reserved for later use, making it important to have an effective and capable battery to store that energy. One of the most popular options is the Tesla Powerwall 3.0. Even though you can buy one off the shelf, it’s important to have a certified Tesla Powerwall 3.0 installer set up. Learn why.
What Is a Certified Tesla Powerwall 3.0 Installer?
Tesla offers an online certification program that providers seeking to sell the Powerwall 3.0 must complete. This requirement allows Tesla to ensure that installations are completed the right way and reduce the risk of customers complaining about the Powerwall 3.0 due to a faulty installation.
While you may be tempted to purchase the unit and try installing it yourself, a professional should handle it. The Powerwall 3.0 is a battery that must be integrated into a system that includes the grid, meter socket panel, main panel, site contactor and controller, load center and the battery itself. Ensuring these components work as they should in tandem can be tricky, even for professional contractors who have not completed the training. If you make a mistake, you could damage both the unit and the panel system itself – a big problem if you have panels through a solar PPA rather than buying them outright.
Tips for Finding a Certified Tesla Powerwall 3.0 Installer in Arizona
If you’re looking for a certified Tesla Powerwall 3.0 installer in Arizona, you’ll want to follow these steps:
Check the Tesla Website
Since Tesla wants your unit installed by a certified professional, they publish a list of certified professionals online. Start here with your search, and you should be able to find certified dealers and installers in your area.
Look for Recognition
Don’t just call the first name on the list. Some installers have earned the distinction of “premier installer” or “best-in-class,” recognitions Tesla provides for those who offer superior customer service experiences. Look for professionals who’ve achieved this distinction to ensure a standout service.
Read Customer Reviews
You’ll also want to see what customers say about any professional contractor. Customer feedback can give you a good preview of the service you can expect when a provider comes to your home for installation. Check a prospective installer’s website and third-party review sites to learn about their services.
Compare Quotes
Price is often the deciding factor. Some contractors will inflate the numbers significantly beyond a reasonable price point. For that reason, it’s better to get quotes from a few different providers to determine reasonable pricing and weed out those who are overcharging you.
