Solar Hot Water Systems

Water heating accounts for about 30 percent of an average household's total greenhouse gas emissions and about the same proportion of total household energy use. Installing a solar water heater can greatly reduce your energy bills as it will use energy from the sun to heat water at zero cost.

Solar Hot water systems produce little or no harmful greenhouse gas emissions, and can provide up to 90% of your total hot water requirements depending on climate conditions and model of heater installed.

Whilst the initial cost and installation of a solar water heater is higher than electric or gas water heaters, the savings made on your energy bills will compensate for this over time. There are also a range of rebates available to help reduce the initial cost of installation
