PROJECT OVERVIEW

Installed across a multi level residential property in Auckland, this project required purpose engineered scaffolding access, split level panel placement across two roof pitches and orientations, and careful electrical penetrations through finished living room spaces.

The system pairs 22 high efficiency tier 1 JA Solar Panels, with a Sigen Energy Controller and a 20kWh SigenStor battery stack, giving the homeowner genuine energy independence, time of use optimisation, and grid-outage resilience from day one.

RESIDENTIAL SOLAR,
DONE RIGHT.

ENERGY ENGINEERED FORWARD

At Watthaus Strategy, we bring a commercial grade mindset to every residential project. Our clients get solar systems designed for long term performance, specified with bankable hardware, and installed by a team that prioritizes quality work over anything else.

  • QUALITY HARDWARE: The JA Solar JAM54D40 series and Sigenergy SigenStor platform are specified for long term reliability and warranty depth, not margin.
  • BATTERY - FIRST THINKING: With 20kWh of storage, this system is engineered to maximize self-consumption, deliver backup resilience, and take full advantage of time of use tariff structures.
  • WHOLE HOME APPROACH: We assess the homeowners existing electrical infrastructure, future EV charging requirements, and consumption profile to ensure the system delivers genuine measurable lifetime value.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

Multi-level residential installs demand more than standard planning. Roof access, structural loading, electrical routing, and finished interior aesthetics all require careful coordination well before a single panel goes up.

STRUCTURAL ACCESS

Purpose-built full scaffolding was staged across the full perimeter. Panel placement was optimised across two roof bearings to maximize generation without compromising structural loading or roof integrity.

ELECTRICAL ROUTING

Cable runs were planned to avoid finished living spaces. The Sigen Energy Controller was positioned in an accessible external service area, with the switchboard sized for current load and future EV charging capacity.

BATTERY INTEGRATION

The 20kWh SigenStor battery stack provides meaningful overnight coverage and grid outage resilience. Placement was selected for ventilation clearance, weight distribution, and short cable runs to main switchboard.

ARCHITECTURE AND AESTHETICS

Panel layout was designed to sit cleanly within each roof plane and present well from street level. All roof penetrations were flashed and sealed to manufacturer specification, preserving the weathertightness of the existing envelope.

SAFETY AND SITE MANAGEMENT

The occupied home remained fully habitable throughout. A formal site specific safety plan covered fall protection, daily reinstatement, and tool management with no disruption to household routine.

LONG-TERM PERFORMANCE

System Monitoring is delivered via the Sigen app, providing real-time generation, consumption, and battery state data. Annual performance reviews are built into the client relationship from commissioning day one.

Things to Know
Before You Book

Transparent pricing means no hidden surprises. Read through the details below so you know exactly what's included.

These offers apply exclusively to our Bright Start, Bright Boost, Bright Max, Sunny Reserve, and Sunny Reserve Plus packages for residential properties only.

  • All prices are GST-inclusive.
  • Offers cannot be combined with any other promotions or discounts.
  • All installations are subject to Watthaus Strategy's standard Terms of Service.

  • Timeframes and delivery schedules may vary based on product availability, site conditions, and local council approvals (where applicable).
"Our goal is to make sure there are no surprises, only clean, affordable energy."

Every home is different, and so are roof types. Our pricing and installation plans are designed for standard residential setups.

Roof Pitch
  • Standard pricing covers roofs with a pitch of up to 25°.
  • Steeper roofs may require tailored mounting solutions and additional charges for safety and labour.
Roof Type
  • Prices are based on corrugated iron roofs.
  • Other roof types such as tile, decramastic, or membrane may need special mounting systems or extra labour.
Scaffolding
  • If scaffolding is required, it will be charged as an additional cost after the initial site inspection.
  • We'll assess your roof and provide a clear breakdown before installation begins.

To ensure safety and performance, each solar installation connects directly to your home's electrical system.

  • Standard pricing includes a maximum 5 metre cable run from the switchboard to the inverter or battery.
  • If your switchboard does not meet current safety standards, upgrades may be required, especially for whole home backup setups in hybrid systems.
  • Extra cabling, trenching, or protective conduit runs (if required) will be quoted separately.
  • All wiring and components are installed in accordance with New Zealand regulations to ensure long term reliability.
