Solar Thermal Hot Water

Solar thermal systems use the sun's heat (not electricity) to warm water. These systems can reduce hot water costs by 50-80%.

How It Works

Solar collectors on your roof absorb heat from the sun and transfer it to water in a storage tank. The system works alongside your existing water heater as a pre-heater.

Best Applications

  • Homes with high hot water usage
  • Pools and hot tubs
  • Commercial laundries
  • Restaurants and hotels
  • Agricultural applications

Frequently Asked Questions

Does solar thermal work in winter?
Yes! Closed-loop systems with antifreeze work year-round. Production is lower in winter but still significant.
How does this compare to solar PV?
Solar thermal is more efficient for heating water but can only heat water. Solar PV is more versatile. Many homes benefit from PV.
What maintenance is required?
Minimal - typically an annual inspection and fluid check every 3-5 years.
