It’s an exciting time to be a homeowner. The age of the modern “smart home” is upon us with new energy efficiency technology emerging everyday. We’re getting smarter about building resilience at home that protects against power outages and grid instability. At SunFarm Energy we take great pride in bringing exciting emerging technologies to our customers and we’re thrilled to offer the SPAN smart electrical panel as part of our product lineup.
What is SPAN?
SPAN is a smart electrical panel that provides more control over your home’s energy usage. With a whole-home view of your consumption, you can make smart decisions about energy efficiency that contribute to real power bill savings.
Track the real-time energy usage of your home, including your solar and battery storage systems, down to the room and individual appliance. Ever wondered how much energy your refrigerator or water heater consumes? With SPAN you can track the consumption of your home appliances in real time.
More Insight. More Control.
Since the invention of home electrical systems, the humble breaker box has changed very little. That gray panel in your garage or basement allows you to switch your breakers on and off – and that’s about it. SPAN changed the game with full visibility, total control, and actionable savings.
With the all-in-one dashboard, SPAN lets you take control of your usage with one mobile app. No more consulting multiple places to paint an accurate picture. SPAN centralizes your energy data into one dashboard, giving you a 360-degree view of your home’s energy performance. Plus, with the SPAN Home App you can make real-time changes from anywhere with circuit-level control.
The SPAN panel also helps avoid costly electrical service upgrades. When installing modern home energy efficiency products or adding EV charging, many homeowners run into issues with their old service panel, requiring time-consuming and costly upgrades. SPAN is a certified Energy Management System that works behind the scenes to monitor electrical loads and automatically pause circuits if your total consumption exceeds your home’s maximum electrical capacity.
Why Install SPAN?
System Control
SPAN is a great option for solar and battery storage homeowners looking to gain insight into their energy usage. SPAN panels connect directly with your system, allowing you to see how your solar energy production is used throughout your home.
How much energy went into home electrical needs? How much went to your battery, or back to the grid? You can see it all with SPAN.
Real-Time Monitoring
With round-the clock monitoring, you can make real-time energy decisions. Turn your circuits on and off from anywhere and change which rooms and appliances receive power during outages.
SPAN is a great tool for battery storage customers looking to take even greater control of their battery’s usage in an outage situation. Choose which circuits stay on or off during an outage, and control which areas of your home function when your battery is at 50% capacity. Endure even the most severe power outages by powering only the circuits you need and none of the ones you don’t.
Energy Saving Insights
With intelligent technology, SPAN learns about your home’s energy usage and trends. Based on your real-time data, SPAN provides energy-saving insights to help you make changes that lower your bills.
