Why Puget Sound homeowners choose FranklinWH and Eco
- Pacific Northwest weather and grid interruptions mean more families need dependable backup power. FranklinWH’s systems are designed for instant switchover, quiet operation, and long service life.
- Eco Electric, Plumbing, Heating & Air brings decades of regional experience: deep knowledge of Seattle‑area permitting, utility interconnection, and locally relevant system sizing. We are Washington's Home Energy Expert for FranklinWH installations.
What the FranklinWH aPower + aGate system delivers for your home
- Whole‑home backup: The aPower battery combined with aGate can power critical loads — or the entire home — depending on system size. No more choosing which circuits to keep on during outages.
- Instant, seamless transfer: aGate’s intelligent controller provides near‑instant islanding so your lights, refrigerator, medical devices, heat pumps, and communications stay on the moment the grid fails.
- Silent operation: Especially important in dense neighborhoods across Seattle, Bellevue, Tacoma, and Kitsap — FranklinWH systems run quietly compared with gas generators.
- Scalable and modular: Start with the capacity you need today and expand the aPower battery bank later if your household grows, you add EV charging, or you increase solar production.
- Smart energy management: aGate optimizes battery use alongside solar generation and grid pricing to lower bills, reduce peak demand, and preserve backup reserve based on your priorities.
- Safety and longevity: FranklinWH designs incorporate robust battery management and thermal controls for safe, long‑life performance tailored to the variable weather and temperature ranges common in Western Washington.
- Solar-ready and grid-friendly: Integrates with rooftop solar systems and modern inverters to enable time‑of‑use optimization, maximize self‑consumption, and support resiliency when utilities implement controlled outages.
How FranklinWH solves problems Pacific Northwest homes face
- Storm‑related outages and stormwater runoff events: Instant backup keeps sump pumps, HVAC, and critical circuits operational during extended outages.
- Wildfire‑driven grid shutoffs and poor air quality days: Keep whole‑home filtration systems and HVAC running so families stay healthy indoors.
- Aging grid infrastructure and rolling outages: Reduce dependence on the grid and maintain household continuity during peak demand or maintenance events.
- Rising electricity costs and demand charges: Use aGate’s intelligence to shift energy usage, store low‑cost solar or off‑peak grid energy, and limit costly peak draws.
