One of Australia's most installed hybrids. Accepts up to 12 kW of panels on the 5 kW model and offers full backup with a Sungrow battery.
Sungrow SH-RS hybrid supplied and installed by our SAA accredited installers across Queensland.
The SH-RS is Sungrow's single-phase hybrid inverter and one of the most-installed hybrids in Australia. It manages solar, a Sungrow SBR battery and backup, with two MPPTs and iSolarCloud monitoring.
How it works, simply: a hybrid inverter converts DC power from your panels into AC power for your home, and also manages a battery on the same unit. It decides moment to moment whether solar goes to the house, the battery or the grid.
It suits single-phase homes that want a battery now or a smooth upgrade path later. The 5 kW model accepts up to 12 kW of panels, per SolarQuotes data.
For Queensland conditions: the manufacturer specifies an operating range of -25 to 60°C, and its enclosure rating is IP65. In hot climates many systems reduce output at the top of their range, so we install out of direct afternoon sun with clearance for airflow wherever possible.
Countryside Solar supplies and installs the Sungrow SH-RS hybrid across Toowoomba, Dalby and our 13 service areas in Queensland. Our SAA-accredited installers handle system design, installation, commissioning and warranty registration, and the work is backed by our 25-year workmanship warranty.
