Split Systems & Heat Pumps
Sunshine Coast solar hot water systems include split systems and heat pumps, both having their own set of benefits. Split systems have their storage cylinder on the ground and all solar collectors located on the roof. Split systems use a solar controller and pump to transfer cold water from the tank to the solar collectors to become heated and then returned to the middle and top of the tank.
Heat pumps have their storage cylinder located on the ground and the heat exchange located wither to the side or top of the storage tank. The heating of the water works as a heat exchange process between the air outside and the water inside the tank. Heat pumps function in very cold conditions, easily generating hot water all year round. We take into account climate, household needs and size when recommending the right solar hot water system for you.
