Contact ABC Solar
Have a pump, pool, well, pressure tank, water heater, or water-related electric load hiding inside the utility bill? ABC Solar can review the solar, battery, inverter, utility-rate, and backup-power side of the project.
Start with the load list
Tell ABC Solar what water equipment needs power.
The best first conversation is practical. What equipment uses electricity? When does it run? Does it need backup? Is it a critical load or a convenience load? Is there water storage? Is there a pump nameplate, breaker label, equipment pad photo, utility bill, or outage concern?
ABC Solar can help review the solar and battery side of water-related electric loads. Plumbing, well work, pool equipment selection, water treatment, graywater, rainwater, gas appliances, and code-specific water-system design must be handled by the proper qualified professionals.
Useful details to send
The better the load information, the better the solar conversation.
Photos and simple facts can prevent guesswork. A pump nameplate, breaker label, equipment pad photo, battery expectation, and utility bill can quickly show whether the project is a solar-load issue, a water-system issue, a scheduling issue, or a backup-priority issue.
Runtime and Schedule
Note when the equipment runs, how long it runs, whether it runs automatically, and whether the schedule can change.
Backup Expectations
Say what must work during an outage: well pump, pressure pump, livestock water, pool equipment, water heater, controls, or something else.
Project categories
What kind of water-load problem are we reviewing?
A pump that will not start on backup is a different problem than a pool pump running during expensive hours. A well pump is different from graywater controls. A pressure tank problem can look like a battery problem. The category matters.
Common contact reasons
- Pool pump or pool equipment electric bill review
- Well pump solar or battery backup question
- Pressure tank and pump cycling concern
- Battery backup for selected water loads
- Blackout water readiness planning
- Rainwater or approved graywater equipment power review

Before the call
Do not guess. Gather clues.
| Item | Why It Helps | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Pump nameplate | Shows voltage, horsepower, amperage, manufacturer, and model. | Well pump, booster pump, pool pump, transfer pump |
| Breaker panel photo | Shows circuit layout and whether loads may share breakers. | Main panel, subpanel, pool equipment panel, backup panel |
| Runtime schedule | Shows whether loads can shift toward solar production. | Pool pump 9 a.m.–3 p.m., well pump intermittent, irrigation timer |
| Utility bill | Shows rate exposure, usage pattern, and possible timing issue. | High afternoon/evening use, seasonal pool load, water heater load |
| Battery expectation | Clarifies what the customer wants during an outage. | Run well pump, exclude pool pump, manual backup only |
| Water storage information | Shows whether tanks can reduce battery demand. | Pressure tank, cistern, ranch tank, rainwater tank, pool storage |
