Solar Hot Water Heater Main Page


Solar Electric Hot Water System

A solar storage tank is used to hold water heated by the solar collectors through the heat exchanger. The solar heated water is drawn through the water heater and into your home, causing your water heater to use less energy. The ideal storage tank is an electric water heater. They are well insulated and already have the required plumbing connections.

Depending on your needs and the selected configuration, Hot2o installation may be as quick as a half day.

If you chose to add other system options, such as an additional solar storage tank, two or more solar collectors or an anti-scald valve, installation may take up to two days.
