2022The Challenge
Managing energy use at home is a daily reality for many households. But for this household with a higher-than-average monthly consumption—roughly 4,076 kWh, equivalent to a small to medium-sized company—achieving a solution was critical. Especially when an on-site inspection revealed that its flat tile roof tended to collect and pond water—increasing the risk of dead load damaging the roof.
Solution
Our team went ahead with a solar panel installation redesigned to specifically work with the issues at hand. We also addressed the challenge of the roof system, wrapping all flat tiles in silicone to seal any gaps and prevent rainwater collection.
Outcome
After the solar panel installation and roof makeover, the homeowner was delighted to discover his power bill reduced from S$1,200 to S$140 per month.
An 80% reduction, a fortified roof—thanks to a solution that protects the household in more ways than one.
