Benefits of Solar Hot Water

Better for the Environment – Better for your Power Bill

Using the sun’s energy to heat water will save you energy, lower your hot water bills and reduce greenhouse pollution

Water heating is the biggest energy cost in most NSW homes.  By switching from an electric to a climate-friendly hot water system you could save up to three tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions from your home each year and greatly reduce your energy bills.

Solar hot water systems use the sun’s energy to heat water in much the

same way as water in a hose left on the lawn gets on a sunny day. A

“booster” heater is also included in the system to boost water temperature on days when the solar energy may be insufficient to meet your hot water requirements, boosters may be run on off peak electricity, or gas (natural or LPG).

The storage tank is usually fitted with an electric, gas or solid fuel booster that heats the water when sunlight is insufficient. Some solar water heaters also have frost protection to prevent damage in frost prone areas.

The average household uses their water heater many times, every day. For this reason it is important you select the most effective and energy efficient hot water system for your needs.   You can be sure that we will supply and install a product that truly fit your needs.

Green Fact:Solar hot water systems are storage systems and, depending on your climate can provide up to 90 percent of your hot water for free using the sun’s energy.  To provide hot water on cloudy days or when demand exceeds supply, most solar water heaters come with a gas or electric booster. A gas booster produces less greenhouse gas emissions.
