With sunshine as abundant as it is in Perth, installation of a solar hot water system or even a solar power system makes good sense – from the environmental and sustainability perspective as well as from the financial perspective. Not only is sunshine abundant and carbon emissions-free (and free of pollution of any other kind), installation of a solar hot water system can save you 25% or even more of your home energy bill.
Types of Solar Hot Water Systems
If you already use a heat pump to keep your home cool, a simple installation can give you the hot water you need very easily. The heat from your house – a form of solar heat – is transferred to the water. It’s a win/win situation: you keep cool in the searing Perth heat and you have the hot water you need for a good soak in the tub or for doing the dishes. Alternatively, a roof installation (involving evacuated tubes designed to absorb the heat of the sun, trap it in your water and circulate the water so every drop in your hot water tank is heated) is another smart option.
Perth Rebates For Solar Water Heating Systems
To help with the cost of solar installations in the Perth area, the Government of Western Australia is offering a subsidy of up to $700 on new solar water heating systems. These solar water installations can be gas-boosted (even in Perth, cloudy days happen!). To qualify, the new solar water system must involve two or more roof-mounted panels and be mounted on a private residential dwelling. New homes in Perth wanting to install solar hot water require pre-approval. What’s more, the Australian Government also offers a rebate of up to $1500 for eligible homes replacing gas or electricity powered water heating systems with solar water heaters.
Approved Perth Solar Water Heating Installers
Installation of solar hot water systems must be done by approved suppliers (DIY solar water heaters won’t qualify). In Perth, approved suppliers include:
- Apricus
- Solahart
- Edwards
- Endless Solar
- Beasley (Rinnai)
- Megasun
