We all know the frustration that comes with loadshedding – cold meals, dark evenings, silent WiFi, and disrupted routines. While things may be calm for now, loadshedding can return at any time, and when it does, you don’t want to be caught off guard.
Now is the perfect time to get your backup power system in place or even consider upgrading to a more powerful and efficient solution. At UtilityPal, we work with top-tier brands to help you keep your home or business powered up, no matter what Eskom decides.
Should You Upgrade Your Current System?
If you already have a backup battery or inverter, ask yourself:
Is my current system giving me enough power during outages?
Can I keep the essentials running (WiFi, fridge, lights, TV)?
Is my battery aging or underperforming?
Have my energy needs grown since I first installed the system?
If you're unsure or answered “no” to any of these, it may be time to upgrade or expand your system.
