All of our gas boosted solar hot water systems utilise a dedicated continuous flow unit built around the same technology as the rinnai infinity australia s number one continuous flow hot water system.
Gas boosted solar hot water cost.
When a hot tap is opened solar heated water flows from the solar water heater through a special solar compatible instantaneous gas water heater.
For comparison non solar hot water systems generally cost anything from 300 to 2 000.
An average household of three to five people will pay around 1100 per year for an electric hot water system or 183 for a gas boosted solar hot water heater.
It is always recommended that a solar hot water system be installed with a booster unit for days when there s low solar gain.
In addition solar hot water systems with gas boosters can cost around 500 to 1 000 more compared with their electric booster counterparts.
Alternatively our gas boosted models offer a practical solution to back up boosting.
Only heat pumps are close to the cost savings of electric boosted solar hot water systems.
Temperature sensors within the instantaneous gas heater measure the incoming water temperature.
All of our gas boosted solar hot water systems utilise a dedicated continuous flow unit built around the same technology as the rinnai infinity australia s number one continuous flow hot water system.
It produces lower greenhouse gas emissions than standard electric hot water systems.
Further split systems are more expensive than roof mounted hot water storage tanks.
