SANCTUARY INSTALLATION GUIDE Installation Location Before installing the Lion Sanctuary System (inverter/charger and battery), consider the following when choosing a location for installation: • Install the Sanctuary System in a climate controlled location, regulated temperature between 32º to 86º F. The Sanctuary ESS cannot be installed in a living space. In other words, the Sanctuary ESS needs to be installed in a garage or utility/storage room, not your family room. -
Page 9: Location Preparation
SANCTUARY INSTALLATION GUIDE Location Preparation: The Lion Sanctuary ESS battery is designed to be mounted on a wall using a French Cleat system, the inverter is designed to be mounted to the top of the battery and directly to the wall. It is recommended that you install a suitable material such as plywood onto an existing wall for anchoring. -
