Victor Phoenix 48/1200 inverter in parallel

Hi , all Victron experts.

First time post, I hope you can help me out a fairly green rookie,

My System… 1800 watt solar panels, Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/35, 4 –48 volt(2.3kwh ea) Chevy volt gen2 lithium batteries( in parallel) Victron Phoenix ­­­­48/1200 inverter. ( all equipment is about 8 months old)

I have a 1/3hp. 120 volt deep well submersible pump in our lake( about 13 amp startup)

Inverter will not handle it. If I got the identical inverter, can i connect the additional, 48/1200 in parallel?.

If so, how do I go about it?

Paul, Thanks for the reply, takes that option off the table. I guess I'll have to increase the inverter size or install a soft start pump.Cheers tk
