FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Rheem Loline® 511161 Solar Water Heater eligible for incentives?

Yes, this model is eligible for Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs), offering financial incentives for your solar investment.

What warranty does the tank have?

The tank is backed by a 5-year cylinder warranty, ensuring long-term durability and reliability.

How does the system protect against frost damage?

Electronically controlled circulation helps prevent frost damage, ensuring consistent hot water delivery in colder climates.

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 Rheem Loline® 511161 Solar Water Heater.

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.
