Solar Hot Water
Roof Mounted Roof mounted systems are the most common type of solar hot water system available. With a roof mounted system both the tank and collectors are installed on the roof and heat from the sun warms the water in the collector(s) which naturally rises into the storage tank. When you use the hot water, cold water flows into the bottom of the collector and the process starts again. This is known as thermo-syphon and as there are no moving parts with a roof mounted system there is less to go wrong. Roof-mounted systems require a minimum roof pitch of 10 degrees in order to function or they can be installed on a suitably engineered frame.
Heat Pump Stiebel Eltron heat pumps do not rely on the sun as they extract heat from the air and transform that into hot water. They are ideal option is your roof is not suitable for solar and you are looking for an ultra efficient method of heating hot water. Large Government incentives apply to the installation of your Stiebel Eltron heat pump system.Contact us about Sunshine Coast Solar Hot Water Systems

Testimonials
Online, via phone and face to face I spoke with a lot of solar providers before settling on SunWorks. I spent a lot of time trying to pin down exactly which combination of inverter, panels, etc made the most sense for us. After a fortnight I realised that Mike had suggested on day one the exact set-up that it took me 2 weeks to piece together. A further two weeks and everything is in place and singing: utterly professional, friendly and the most price competitive (frankly he didn’t need to be). Recommend highly and without reservation. Thank you Mike and the team at SunWorks.
