However, PV modules are only part of the picture. A fully functioning system requires a range of components to get your own electricity flowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First off, if you haven\u2019t planned a PV system before, but have an understanding of what an inverter is, you\u2019ve got a head start.

Installing your inverter in a utility room or basement<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By far the most common location for inverters (at least in Central Europe) is the utility room on the ground floor or in the basement of a building. The power converter can go about its work undisturbed here, alongside the rest of the technical equipment\u2014heat pump, boiler, and energy storage unit\u2014all whirring quietly away. It\u2019s worth noting that having multiple electronic devices in a confined space can result in a noticeable increase in heat generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019d like to install your inverter in the utility room as well, there\u2019s generally no reason not to.

Garage installation: a practical alternative for your inverter<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not every building has a utility room or a basement, but alternatively, a garage also makes an ideal new home for your inverter. This is because, in addition to having enough room for cars, most garages have free space on the wall for the essential PV components. However, if the garage is small or you have a large car, this can sometimes make parking difficult. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"garage\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Garage<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-decoration-background-color has-background\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Pros<\/strong><\/td><td>Protected against UV and rain, noise isn\u2019t audible in living area, readily accessible<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Cons<\/strong><\/td><td>Cabling, not every garage has enough space; exhaust fumes and dust from DIY can clog the vents<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-2-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"The garage has enough space for the inverter and battery storage system\" class=\"wp-image-2542\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-2-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-2.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The garage has enough space for the inverter and battery storage system<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"3-fur-freiganger-wechselrichter-im-garten\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Outdoor inverter installation: what to consider for yard placement<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When indoor space is limited, the yard can offer an alternative installation space. This could also serve as an ideal location for an inverter, though it\u2019s important to keep in mind that not every device is equally suitable for outdoor use. Power converters will have to withstand the elements in places exposed to wind and rain and could occasionally get a few drops of water on the housing. The IP protective class indicates whether the selected product is susceptible to dust and water. \u201cIP\u201d stands for \u201cingress protection\u201d, and devices rated IP 65 or higher are generally capable of withstanding these conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Walls facing south and west are generally less suitable, as they are exposed to stronger sunlight in the Northern Hemisphere than walls facing north and east.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"aussenbereich\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Outdoors<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-decoration-background-color has-background\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Pros<\/strong><\/td><td>Saves on space; may allow for shorter cable runs<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Cons<\/strong><\/td><td>High IP protective class required<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-3-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Walls facing away from the wind are suitable for outdoor inverter installations\" class=\"wp-image-2548\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-3-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-3.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Walls facing away from the wind are suitable for outdoor inverter installations<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"4-hoch-hinaus-wechselrichter-auf-dem-dach\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Roof-mounted inverters: pros and cons<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One option that is used primarily for larger rooftop systems in commercial settings is installing the inverter directly on the roof. This is ideal if there are shaded areas that are sheltered from wind and rain. Otherwise, a high IP protective class and special cooling technology are essential to prevent damage and yield losses. Installations on roofs are particularly challenging when the inverter needs to be mounted horizontally. Not all devices are capable of operating under these conditions, but your installer will know whether your unit can be installed horizontally. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"dach\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Roof<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-decoration-background-color has-background\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Pros<\/strong><\/td><td>Shortest cable run, keeps PV components in close proximity <\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Cons<\/strong><\/td><td>Roof has to be accessible for maintenance, protection from sunlight, horizontal installation in many cases<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-4-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"With larger rooftop PV systems, inverters are often situated next to the modules\" class=\"wp-image-2554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-4-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-4-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-4-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-4-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.fronius.com\/solar-energy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/06\/se-blog-wohin-mit-wechselrichter-bild-4.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">With larger rooftop PV systems, inverters are often situated next to the modules<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a side note, Fronius does in fact offer an inverter that can withstand extreme heat\u2014the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fronius.com\/en\/solar-energy\/installers-partners\/products-solutions\/commercial-energy-solutions\/tauro-commercial-solar-inverter-for-large-scale-pv-systems\"><strong>Fronius Tauro<\/strong><\/a>.

Whether it\u2019s a utility room, basement, garage, or the roof\u2014there\u2019s a suitable spot in every home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One thing\u2019s for sure: each location has its own pros and cons. Not every garage will be equally suitable for housing the inverter, for example because it\u2019s too small or gets too hot in the summer. On the other hand, the utility room may be cool enough for an inverter. If you\u2019re unsure, your installer can help you find the best location for the inverter in your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"wie-sieht-der-ideale-standort-aus\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-lifeblood-red-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-10d436fb7dac6ad7e1f2ff98c9bd1019\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-US\">What makes a location ideal for inverter installation?<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The inverter should be installed in a place that is as cool and well-ventilated as possible, and free of dust.
