Why a Complete, Integrated Solar Package is Non-Negotiable

Before we delve into sizes and prices, it's crucial to address the number one mistake we see consumers make. As we explain in our detailed article, you should NEVER buy your inverter and batteries from different shops. A solar system is a sophisticated ecosystem. When components are mismatched, it leads to inefficiency and premature failure.

Practical Tips for Usage

  1. Sum simultaneous loads and keep them below your system's conservative (PF 0.8) limit.
  2. Use batteries to run loads at night or to help start high-surge appliances.
  3. Run heavier appliances (AC, microwave, kettle, oven) during peak sun hours.
  4. Check your inverter's surge rating for fridges, pumps, and compressors.

Summary: 1.5kVA is for essential loads. 3.5–4.2kVA handle small to medium households with occasional heavy use. 5.2–6.2kVA can run larger homes with multiple heavy appliances, and even allow for partial EV charging.

1. Entry-Level Solar Systems (1kVA - 2kVA) for Essential Backup

Perfect for smaller homes and offices in Harare, our 1.5kVA solar systems with 12.8V lithium batteries are designed to power your essentials during load shedding—lights, Wi-Fi, TV, and device charging.

2. Mid-Range Solar Systems (3kVA - 4.2kVA) – The People's Choice

This is the "sweet spot" for the modern Zimbabwean home. These mid-range solar systems can comfortably power refrigeration and other crucial appliances. When considering the 3kVA solar system price in Zimbabwe, value is key. Our complete 3.2kVA "Fix & Supply" package for just $1000 is an unbeatable offer. Our most popular system, the 3.6kVA combo, is hailed by many as the ultimate solar setup for residential needs.

3. High-Capacity Solar Systems (5kVA - 11kVA+) for Total Independence
