Off-Grid Hot Water Made Simple

iHot Solar Hot Water Inverter

Heating water is often the single biggest battery drain on an off-grid property. Standard electric tanks pull massive surges of AC power, forcing you to over-spec your battery bank and main inverter just to take a shower.

The iHot Smart Solar Hot Water Inverter solves this problem by taking water heating completely off your primary off-grid system.

Why iHot is a Game-Changer for Off-Grid Living

Instead of pulling power from your main off-grid battery bank, iHot connects a small array of dedicated solar PV panels straight into your existing hot water element.

It turns direct sunlight straight into thermal energy, storing heat in your water tank rather than cycling your battery setup.

  • Zero Battery Strain: Your main off-grid battery bank stays fully charged for lights, refrigeration, and power tools.

  • No Heavy Roof Loads or Pipes: Unlike old-school solar thermal systems, there are no heavy water tanks on your roof, no pumps to freeze, and no glycol fluids to flush.

  • Up to 99% MPPT Efficiency: iHot continuously extracts every available watt from your dedicated solar panels—even on overcast days—to heat your tank directly.

  • Retrofits Existing Tanks: Connects to standard electric storage water heaters (elements up to 3,600W) without changing the tank or thermostat.

  • Generator/AC Backup Compatible: On extended rainy days, manually or automatically top up hot water via your backup generator without risking cold showers.

Thermal Battery Power, Pure and Simple

Treat your hot water tank like a giant thermal battery. With iHot, you get reliable, high-efficiency hot water without multiplying your battery costs or over-stressing your off-grid inverter and battery systems.
