Is it possible to charge the house batteries with solar panels when mh is not being used for a few months? I'm not able to keep mh at my home and storage location doesn't have electricity. As always advice is appreciated.

Yes, it is more than possible. How big a panel depends on how big your batteries are and what the phantom load on them is.

If you aren't using it for just a couple or three months, fully charge the house batteries then disconnect the negative cable. I left my van almost 6 months that way and it started first try.
