How Solar Hot Water Works

The Technology, Explained

Rooftop collectors capture the sun

Collector panels on your roof absorb the sun's energy and heat your water, which is stored in an insulated tank ready for use — on a roof-mounted system it rises naturally with no pump, on a split system a pump circulates it.

A booster covers cloudy days

An electric or gas booster automatically tops up the tank when there isn't enough sun, so you always have hot water — even through a run of cloudy days.

Why Solar Suits the Sunshine Coast

Abundant Queensland sunshine

The Coast enjoys plenty of sun most of the year, so a well-sized solar system does the bulk of your water heating for free.

Big running-cost savings

With the sun doing most of the heating, solar can be the cheapest system to run over its lifetime.

Best for homes with good roof space

A north-facing roof with sun is ideal. Shaded or tight roof? A heat pump is the better fit.

FAQs

Solar Hot Water Sunshine Coast — Frequently Asked Questions

Do you supply and install solar hot water on the Sunshine Coast?
Yes — we supply and install new solar hot water systems right across the Sunshine Coast, both roof-mounted and split-system, from all major brands. In most cases we can install the same day. Call 1300 728 122 for a free, no-obligation quote.
How does solar hot water work?

Rooftop collector panels absorb the sun's energy and use it to heat your water, which is stored in an insulated tank ready for use. On a roof-mounted system the heated water rises naturally into the tank with no pump; on a split system a pump circulates water between ground-level tank and roof panels. An electric or gas booster tops it up on cloudy days.

Is solar hot water worth it on the Sunshine Coast?
Absolutely — the Sunshine Coast's abundant sunshine makes it one of the best places in Australia for solar hot water. With plenty of sun most of the year, a well-sized system does the bulk of your water heating for free, dramatically cutting running costs. If your roof is shaded or space is tight, a heat pump can deliver similar savings.
How much does solar hot water cost on the Sunshine Coast?

It depends on the system, your roof and your household, so we provide a free, no-obligation quote before any work begins — you'll know the price up front. Call 1300 728 122, and ask about our payment plans if you'd like to spread the cost.

Which solar hot water brands do you supply and repair?

All of them — including Rheem, Solahart, Rinnai, Dux, Apricus, iHeat, Chromagen, Edwards, Conergy and Envirosun — supplied, installed and repaired across the Sunshine Coast. We also service and repair systems we didn't install.

Do you repair solar hot water on the Sunshine Coast?
Absolutely. Our licensed team repairs all solar hot water systems across the Sunshine Coast — pumps, controllers, boosters, valves and roof leaks — with common spare parts on board for fast repairs. No hot water right now? See our no hot water page or call 1300 728 122.
What happens on cloudy days or in winter?

Every solar hot water system has an electric or gas booster that automatically tops up the tank when there isn't enough sun — so you always have hot water, even through a run of cloudy days or cooler mornings. We'll size the system and booster to suit your household.

Solar or heat pump — which is better on the Sunshine Coast?
Both are highly efficient here. Solar makes the most of the Coast's sunshine if you have good roof space and sun. A heat pump needs no roof space, works day or night, and suits shaded roofs or smaller blocks. We'll recommend the best fit for your home and budget.
