What is a Solar Hot Water System

One of the questions we get asked a lot here at Beyond Energy is What is a Solar Hot Water System?

To put it simply, Solar hot water systems take advantage solar energy - or sunshine - and utilise it to heat water for everyday use. In general this system should provide between 50 and 90 per cent of all your hot water needs. 

Solar hot water systems generally come with electric or gas boosters as they are there to provide the rest of your hot water needs.

It functions by having Solar collectors on the rooftop to absorb the sun’s rays and heat the water. This then flows to a storage tank, ready for use.

There are many different types of solar hot water systems available. At Beyond Energy we are here to sort all that out for you and help you find hte perfect one for your and your family.
