Solar Hot Water Systems
A solar hot water system is a great way to save money by using the sun to heat your hot water. This works by the water passing through collectors mounted on your roof, heating the water up to 100 Celsius.
Curl Curl Plumbing can service, repair & install a wide range of solar hot water systems from all the leading brands. We service all locations within Northern Beaches, North Shores and Inner Sydney.
For reliable advice on the best solar hot water heater for your budget and needs, call Curl Curl Plumbing today on 1300 566 292.

Q: How does a solar hot water heater work?

Q: What should I do if my solar hot water heater isn't heating up water?
If your solar hot water heater isn’t heating up water, there could be a number of reasons why. Check to make sure the solar panels aren’t obstructed by shade or debris. If everything seems to be in order, the heating element or thermostat may need to be replaced. Call in a professional plumber to diagnose and fix the problem.

If your solar hot water heater is leaking, turn off the water supply to the heater and call in a professional plumber to assess and repair the problem. Leaking water heaters can cause serious water damage and should be addressed immediately.
