What to plan for in Mesquite
- Heat waves (very high): Heat waves strain the grid just when air conditioning matters most. Decide what must stay cool, such as one room, medicine and the fridge, and size backup to that rather than the whole house.
- River and heavy-rain flooding (very high): Heavy rain can flood basements and take out power. Put sump pumps on backup power and keep equipment above the flood line.
- Wildfires (relatively high): Wildfire risk can mean planned shutoffs and smoke. A battery charged by solar gives quiet backup, and fueled generators need extra care on dry days and clear space around them.
