What system is right for me?

On-roof Systems

The storage tanks for all Edwards roof-mounted Solar Hot Water heaters are long life stainless steel and do not have any moving parts. They are therefore very durable and require minimal maintenance.

The Edwards Solar Hot Water roof-mounted systems come in 3 sizes – 180 litres, 305 litres and 440 litres. We can advise you on which is best for your home and situation.

Live in a Frost Area?

Edwards Solar Hot Water has a system designed specifically for frost areas. The Edwards LX series uses the highly efficient heat transferring properties of a special anti-freeze fluid to transfer the absorbed energy to heat the water indirectly. With an ‘indirect system’ water does not pass through the collector panels, instead the anti-freeze mixture is circulated from the collectors through a stainless steel heat exchanger, transferring the heat into the water.

The benefit of this ‘indirect system’ is that it can be confidently used in frost areas, without risking damage to the system. It offers protection against freeze damage in conditions of up to minus eight degrees Celsius.

Don’t want or can’t have a Roof-Mounted system?

An Edwards Ground Mount System is the answer.

If you don’t want a roof-mounted system or your home is not suitable then the Edwards Ground Mounted system (available in both 325 litres and 430 litres) is the system for you.

The advantages of the Edwards Ground Mounted systems are two fold. Firstly; the different family sized storage tanks provide flexibility of installation options. Secondly; the stylish, slim-line design of the collectors minimises the visual impact to your home.

Home not suitable for Solar?

An Edwards Heat Pump System is the answer.

If the roof of your home is not suitable for solar, or your roof is extensively shaded then the Edwards Heat Pump is the system for you. This innovative system operates like a refrigerator only in reverse; transferring heat from the surrounding air to the stored water. The Edwards Heat Pump’s use of refrigeration technology makes it extremely efficient using one third the energy of a conventional electric hot water heater. As a result it qualifies for similar environmental incentives as traditional solar hot water systems.
