Protective cover for battery & inverter

Hi, what is everyone doing to protect their battery & inverter from the rain & weather? We’ve been advised to add a “canopy/cupboard” - what/where/how/material?! Any suggestions welcome! Thanks in advance!

have a look on Amazon too. Lots of very similar canopies a fair bit cheaper.

Got mine from Amazon - plenty to chose from. Larger the better.

Measured up after they were mounted on the wall and got something made https://www.coversandall.co.uk/?utm_source=Google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=%7Bcampaign%7D&gclid=CjwKCAjww7KmBhAyEiwA5-PUSpAwsZTx8nEKeKt9i6jCaEvRA1i8pyxThdm5LwsZ39C5uhum_cIBdhoCdo4QAvD_BwE

I'd be wary of draping any sort of cover over the inverter as it will prevent airflow and will lead to overheating. You'd also be violating the mounting requirements and would probably invalidate any warranty.

simont thank you very much for this! Are you using this exact one?

Zakalwe thanks, will do, do you recommend a particular one you are using?

hhall thank you, if you use a particular one you can recommend, please let me know, thanks!

naltsta thank you!

Zakalwe yes, I was envisaging some sort of canopy/roof above the battery & inverter to allow air movement

BMH Na, mine are all in the garage, just did a google search....

Mine are in the garage so I have no need for a canopy.
