What we work with
The kit we install and talk to.
What we do with each brand. We can supply and fit the ones the job needs. These names describe kit on site. They are not partner or accreditation claims.
AquaLoad
Our Node-RED script. Surplus solar to heat.
UniFi
The network the rest of the job can trust.
Victron
The GX Bay Solar installs. The script we write.
Home Assistant
One dashboard. Local. Recoverable.
Shelly
Preferred hardware for circuits, covers and meters.
- Elon
Elon
Geyser control that already understands a solar site.
- Geyserwise
Geyserwise
The timer a lot of tanks already have.
- Geyserwala
Geyserwala
Geyser control that lives on your LAN.
AquaLoad
AquaLoad is a Blue Dynamics product. A Node-RED script that converts surplus solar to heat and prioritises loads, from a Victron VRM or Home Assistant dashboard.
We install and test it on your Node-RED server, on a Victron GX or on Home Assistant. Ask us to add it to a site that already has a GX.
UniFi
We plan and install UniFi when the property needs a network that automations, cameras and phones can share without fighting each other.
We can supply the kit and put it in: a tidy rack, coverage where people actually sit, VLANs for IoT when the site needs them.
Victron
Bay Solar and Blue Dynamics are sister companies. They install the Victron Energy plant. We write Victron Automations on the Cerbo GX so geysers and loads follow the site.
Ask us for a Node-RED script, a load-control review or help with a GX that is already on the wall.
Home Assistant
We deploy Home Assistant as a service on your site. Virtualised on a Raspberry Pi 5, 16 GB, with 256 GB NVMe. Remote access has no monthly fee.
The complete package is from R14,999 for Langebaan and Saldanha. Device mapping, a dashboard and three starter automations.
Shelly
Shelly is the hardware we reach for first. Relays, dimmers, covers and meters that stay on your network. Home Assistant talks to them directly.
We supply and fit the devices the job needs. If a box is already on the wall and it will talk locally, we bring it in.
Elon
Elon is one of the geyser controllers we fit. Temperature stays on the unit. The site decides when the element may run.
We can supply and install it, or put an Elon you already have on the same job list as the rest of the house.
Geyserwise
Geyserwise is common on this coast. We keep the timer and thermostat and add a path so the tank can wait for surplus solar or take a boost from a phone or a Victron GX.
If the unit is already on the tank, we work with it. If you need a new one, we can supply and fit it.
Geyserwala
Geyserwala fits when you want the tank on the network without another cloud account. We bring it onto the same job list as the rest of the site.
We can supply and install it, or connect a unit that is already there.
