Yep, in order to run off Batteries and Grid power independent of one another you would need to some extensive wiring of your home. Your only real option is to go grid tied with a system big enough to run the home.
Out here we don't even have the option for grid power ( unless I want to cough up $25,000. to the power co. ) We run our entire ranch on 1500w Solar (soon to be 2500w) and a 12K generator that charges the batteries if they get too low.
