Dux EcoSmart Electric Boosted Solar 400L
The Details

Key Features

400L Ground-Mounted Solar Tank

The Dux EcoSmart system features a spacious 400-litre ground-mounted solar tank, designed to provide ample hot water for larger households. This high-capacity tank ensures sufficient hot water for daily activities, including showers, dishwashing, and laundry. Its robust construction guarantees durability and longevity, allowing consistent hot water service for years.

Multi-Temperature Tank Sensors

This feature optimises solar gain by continuously monitoring water temperature within the tank. By adjusting the system accordingly, these sensors maximise solar energy capture while minimising the risk of overheating, ensuring efficient performance throughout the day.

Mid-Point Electric Boosting

Equipped with midpoint electric boosting, the system provides 230 litres of boost capacity. This ensures a reliable supply of hot water during periods of high demand or on cloudy days when solar energy may be insufficient, so you never run out of hot water.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my home is suitable for solar hot water?

Factors such as roof orientation, shading, and space for solar panels need to be assessed. Our technicians at SunCity Hot Water can conduct a site evaluation to provide tailored recommendations.

Can the EcoSmart system be used in colder climates?

Yes, it can be used in colder climates. However, performance may vary depending on local conditions. The electric booster ensures access to hot water when solar heating is less effective.

How much can I save on my energy bills with this system?

By using solar energy, the EcoSmart system reduces reliance on conventional electricity, leading to savings on energy bills. Exact savings depend on household hot water use and local energy prices.

How does a solar hot water system work?

Roof-mounted solar collectors absorb heat from the sun and transfer it to the water in an insulated storage tank. An electric or gas booster tops up the temperature on cloudy days so you never run out of hot water.

Is there a government rebate for solar hot water systems?

Yes — eligible solar hot water systems qualify for Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs), which reduce the upfront cost. SunCity Hot Water will confirm your eligibility and handle the paperwork.

How long do solar hot water systems last?

A well-maintained solar hot water system can last 15 years or more, with the tank and collector panels covered by manufacturer warranties.

How much do solar hot water systems cost?

Solar hot water systems cost more upfront than electric, but government STC rebates and much lower running costs offset this over time. Call SunCity Hot Water on 1300 728 122 for an all-inclusive quote on the Dux EcoSmart Electric Boosted Solar 400L.

What size hot water system do I need?

As a guide, 1–2 people suit 125–160L, 3–4 people (a family of four) suit 250–315L, and larger households suit 400L. Continuous-flow gas units are sized by hot water flow rate instead. SunCity will help size the right system for your household.
