What does the Power Plan do?
The tool sorts each system in your home into one of three levels. The levels are our own way of showing how each system is powered. The recommendation then follows RoseWater's Essential, Enhanced and Whole Home protection tiers from their Power Plan worksheet and points you to a RoseWater starting point.
What do the three levels mean?
Each level is a different answer to what happens when the grid has a problem. Most homes use all three, with the most sensitive systems on the HUB.
Grid only
The circuit runs on utility power with nothing in between. It gets every surge, sag and bit of noise the grid carries, and it goes dark when the grid does.
Generator standby
A standby generator starts after the grid fails, so the circuit is off for a short time before power returns. It suits heavy loads like pumps and car chargers, but a generator does nothing about everyday power problems.
RoseWater HUB
The circuit runs through the HUB all the time. Power is conditioned every hour of the day, and when the grid fails the HUB is already carrying the load, so there is no gap at all.

Power Plan Questions
What is a Power Plan?
What is a Power Plan?
A Power Plan is a list of what in your home must stay on and how well each part should be protected. RoseWater uses it to size a system around your lifestyle and how much downtime you can accept. Our tool gives you a starting point, and we finish the plan with you in a design consultation.
How accurate is the recommendation?
How accurate is the recommendation?
It is a starting point, not a final size. The tool follows RoseWater's own guidance: Essential Protection usually starts with a HUB20, Enhanced Protection with a HUB40 and often a generator, and Whole Home Protection with a system sized to the whole panel, often more than one HUB. Battery storage and run time depend on the exact loads, so we confirm them on a site visit with RoseWater's engineering team.
Which systems should go on Level 3?
Which systems should go on Level 3?
Anything run by microprocessors that would be painful to lose belongs on Level 3. That usually means the network, lighting control, security, automation, AV, HVAC controls and wine or other critical refrigeration. Tell us about any home healthcare equipment so we can plan circuits and run time around it; life-sustaining equipment also needs the backup its manufacturer specifies. The others are the systems that reboot, lose settings or get damaged when the power dips.
Do I need a generator or solar to get a HUB?
Do I need a generator or solar to get a HUB?
No. A HUB charges its batteries from the grid and works fully on its own. It can also take power from one or more generators and up to 10 kW of solar through RoseWater's SBX10, and we coordinate those connections with your electrician or solar installer.
Will you share my plan with anyone?
Will you share my plan with anyone?
Only with the people who help design your system. Your plan comes to our team, and when we size the system we register the project with RoseWater's engineering team. We never sell it or use it for advertising.
