Battery Backup & Storage FAQs
Choosing the right battery backup size depends on your daily energy usage, which circuits you want covered during an outage, and whether your system is paired with solar. In most Manteca homes, we recommend battery capacities ranging from 10 kWh for essential loads to 20+ kWh for larger homes or full-home coverage. Homes with higher air conditioning or appliance usage may require larger or modular systems.
Goose Electric performs a detailed load assessment before we recommend any system. We’ll review your energy bills, panel capacity, and backup priorities to design a setup that makes sense for your needs and your budget. Whether you want to keep a few circuits running or power the entire home during outages, we’ll size and install your battery storage system with safety and code compliance at the forefront.
A complete residential battery backup system includes several components that work together to store energy and deliver it safely during an outage. Most systems we install in Manteca feature:
Goose Electric installs fully integrated systems and handles every part of the job—from design and permitting to final inspection. We ensure your battery is properly connected, labeled, and ready to deliver clean backup power the moment the grid goes down.
Battery backup duration depends on system size, usage habits, and which appliances or circuits you power during an outage. Most Manteca homeowners can expect their systems to last between 8 and 24 hours, with basic essentials like refrigerators, lighting, and medical equipment prioritized. Full-home backup systems will have shorter durations unless paired with solar or larger-capacity batteries.
At Goose Electric, we help you understand realistic runtime expectations for your setup. We can also incorporate load-shedding strategies and smart power management tools that automatically extend your battery’s performance. Our goal is to give you reliable, uninterrupted power when you need it most.
