What is a Solar Hot Water System?
A solar hot water system is an energy-efficient way to heat water for your home or business using the sun’s natural energy. These systems use solar panels or collectors installed on your roof to capture sunlight which heats water in a tank. These systems can be paired with electric or gas boosters to ensure consistent hot water even in cloudy weather. There are different types of systems including:
- On roof systems that have the solar collectors and storage tanks mounted together on the roof.
- Split-systems, these have solar panels on the roof but keep the storage tank separate, using a small pump to circulate between the two.
