The iHot System
How It Works
Robert Davies, inventor of iHot, describes how the system works in conjunction with a traditional solar installation.
The Problem
Current solar hot water is expensive, is heavy, has too many moving parts, pumps and pipes. It places additional weight on your roof and can suffer from freezing and boiling issues.
The Solution
iHot integrates with your existing electric storage hot water system and generates solar hot water with optional grid boost, automatically or manually. It can also be used entirely off grid.
iHot, is lighter, cheaper and more efficient than traditional rooftop storage hot water systems. It leaves your tank on the ground so it is easier to service and maintain, and it doesn't have the same freezing and boiling issues as traditional roof mounted systems.
How It Works
iHot simply connects to your existing hot water system.
Our cutting-edge system integrates high-quality photovoltaic (PV) solar panels with advanced water heating technology. By utilising the abundant energy from the sun. Our system provides efficient and sustainable hot water heating.
iHot can be installed with a new solar installation or integrate with an existing one. Contact your solar installer and have them add an iHot to your solar installation at the time of installation for the best savings.
Government Incentives - Save Money. Take advantage of available government incentives for installing solar water heating systems. Your solar installer can guide you through the eligibility criteria and help you maximize these benefits.
The Benefits
Save money! Up to 50% of a household electricity bill can be from hot water heating. With iHot, you can significantly reduce your energy expenses. By harnessing solar power, you'll rely less on traditional, expensive energy sources, such as electricity or gas, resulting in lower bills.
Energy Independence. By generating your hot water with solar energy, you become less reliant on external energy sources, granting you greater independence and resilience.
Long-Term Investment. Solar water heating systems have a long lifespan, with no moving parts, providing hot water for many years. This makes them a smart investment that adds value to your property.
