The borehole pump stops, the lifts stop and the water tanks run low: in a Kilimani apartment block, an outage quickly becomes a building-wide problem, and the management pays for it either in diesel or in tenant complaints.

Solar installation in Kilimani works well for those shared loads. A hybrid system on the roof can power water pumps, corridor and security lighting, CCTV and the gate during the day, and batteries keep the essentials running when KPLC goes off. For standalone homes and maisonettes, solar can also take on water heating and household loads to bring token costs down.

Nerpax surveys the roof, measures shading from neighbouring towers, reviews the building's loads and designs a system that matches them. We supply and install genuine panels, inverters and batteries, commission everything and explain how to monitor performance.

Serving Kilimani

Kilimani is one of Nairobi's busiest apartment neighbourhoods, with tall residential blocks, serviced flats and short-stay units off Argwings Kodhek Road, Ngong Road and around Yaya Centre. Shared buildings like these rely on a working intercom, controlled entry and cameras covering gates, lifts and parking. Landlords and management companies also need tidy power distribution, backup for lifts and water pumps, and sub-metering that stops disputes. Smaller offices and salons run from converted houses here too. Nerpax Systems supplies, installs and delivers in Kilimani.

Solar Installation in Kilimani: FAQs

Can solar power the borehole pump in our apartment block?

Yes. Pumps are well suited to solar because they can run during the day when panels produce most power. Depending on the pump, we use either a solar pump drive or a hybrid inverter. We check the pump rating and water use during the survey.

Our roof is shaded by the building next door. Is solar still possible?

It depends on how much of the roof is shaded and when. We assess shading at the survey and place panels on the best section. If shading is severe, we may recommend a smaller array or a battery backup system that charges from the grid instead.
