The big secret most solar companies don’t want you to know about

It’s no secret that most solar energy companies only focus on selling solar power systems.

They keep hidden behind the curtain, something of massive value that addresses the largest energy user in most family homes today.

They either do not offer the solution or do not understand the value of this solar superpower.

Whilst solar power is a key piece of the puzzle in every energy efficient home, smart home owners maximise their solar benefits through leveraging the incredible advantages of solar hot water.

Solar hot water has been quietly making waves for over 70 years, the first revolution in the way we harnessed Free Energy From The Sun for our homes.

Embracing solar hot water is not just a sustainable choice but a savvy financial decision.

Utilising the full spectrum of solar solutions, allows you to maximise the savings you receive from your solar.

How can solar hot water give me more savings?

Solar hot water systems utilise the sun’s energy to heat water, providing a significant reduction in dependence on the grid. Yet, solar hot water collector panels are more efficient than solar power panels, taking up approximately 67% less roof space than an equivalent sized solar power system, giving you more return on your dollar per square metre.

Imagine a more compact, space-efficient solution that not only contributes to a greener planet but also trims down your utility expenses.

Large companies know this is where the smart money savings are. We’ve simply put it into a system that works for residential use.

How much could I save with solar hot water?

The average family can reap substantial savings, with potential additional savings of $700 to $1,000 off their power bills annually with the right solar hot water system.

Time after time, solar hot water emerges as the silent saviour, offering both environmental and financial advantages that translate into more solar savings for you.

But I still want solar panels so what do I do?

Combining a solar hot water system with a photovoltaic (PV) solar power system is a strategic move towards optimising roof space and unlocking unprecedented energy efficiency.

By integrating these two technologies, you harness the sun’s energy not only to generate electricity but also to heat water for household use.

This synergistic approach ensures that every inch of your roof contributes to energy production, maximising your savings without the need for an additional battery investment. It’s a smart utilisation of available space, delivering a dual benefit that enhances sustainability and cost-effectiveness.

With this innovative pairing, homeowners can revel in the perks of reduced energy bills, a smaller carbon footprint, and an overall smarter and greener approach to energy consumption.

Can't I just put on more solar power and add a time to my electric hot water unti?

Simply put, yes, you can. But you won’t be receiving the best efficiency from your system.
…And you’ll be exposed to future changes in energy prices that will work against you.

While increasing solar power and adding a timer to your electric hot water unit is a step towards energy efficiency, pairing your solar power with a dedicated solar hot water system offers major advantages.

Solar hot water systems are designed specifically to harness the sun’s energy for heating water, ensuring optimal efficiency and substantial cost savings. Having both systems on your roof allows you to maximise your solar savings.

Your biggest savings in solar comes from self consumption, which is where solar hot water delivers. As the price of electricity continues to increase in the future and the feed in tariff decreases, solar hot water continues delivering more value for smart home owners.

Solar hot water further reduces your reliance on the grid and allows you to get maximum benefit out of your solar power system, rather than wasting that energy to heat water.

This strategically targeted approach not only maximises energy efficiency but also provides significant savings on your electricity bills, allowing you to better utilise the power generated by your solar panels.

Additionally, solar hot water systems are known for their reliability and ability to operate even on cloudy days, ensuring a consistent and sustainable hot water supply.

Investing in a dedicated solar hot water system offers a comprehensive solution that goes beyond solar power and timers, providing long-term benefits and a greener, more efficient energy alternative for your home.

What rebates are there for hot water?

A Federal Government rebate known as Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) is available for solar hot water and heat pumps. STCs are a financial incentive to encourage the installation of solar and heat pump water heaters under a Federal Government operated scheme.

This will be calculated at your appointment and taken into account when quoted to you.
