Solar and Heat Pump Systems

Flat Plate Solar Collectors go on the roof of your home to capture heat from the sun and
in turn heats the water. The hot water is then stored in a insulated storage tank.
On cloudy days the solar hot water system provides the benefit of a boosting function to raise the temperature within the tank so you always have hot water. Evacuated Tube Solar Systems perform similar functions to solar flat plate collectors, by far the best of these on the market in Australia is the Austral Solar system . We also sell the best heat pumps on the market (if you dont see it on our web site we do not rate it), Solar Heat Pumps also capture a massive amount of the sun’s heat, however they do not require collectors to be placed on your roof, instead they draw their heat from the air around them (the sun heats the atmosphere), they operate a bit like a refrigerator in reverse, they are very efficient if large quantities of hot water are required (for households of 3 or more people), these systems run on a small amount of electricity. Some of these heat pumps can also be used for swimming pool, slab and hydronic heating.  http://www.enter-shop.com.au/catalogue/c27/c69/c70

Savings on annual hot water energy costs of up to 80% are possible, dependent on the type of solar hot water system the geographical location and the amount of hot water that is required.
