Understanding Warnings

Warnings are there to make the result more honest. They help surface places where assumptions, defaults, edge cases, or environment details could materially affect the outcome.

Why warnings exist

GridGap is deliberately conservative about its role. Instead of pretending every result is final, it shows warnings when a user should slow down and review the inputs or assumptions.

Common warning types

Depending on the scenario, warnings may cover things such as default assumptions being used, surge-related concerns, battery-bank constraints, charger or recharge limitations, solar-condition sensitivity, and installation-environment cautions.

How to use them

Treat warnings as review points, not as noise. A warning does not always mean the project is wrong, but it does mean the result should not be treated casually.

For installers, warnings are a prompt to validate the scenario more carefully. For homeowners, they are a signal that professional review matters before acting on the result.
