Making solar
hot water
simple.

Solar energy has become a household standard with millions of Aussie homes generating their own power, but hot water continues to be one of the largest drivers of the household energy bill.

Traditional solar hot water systems were created to solve this problem, but over time they’ve become known for

  • High upfront expense

  • Heavy structural impact

  • Technical & maintenance issues

  • Complex system architecture

Although effective, they haven’t always been 
simple, accessible, or practical for many homes.

A better way forward

iHot was created with a simple goal:

To make solar hot water easier, more reliable, 
and accessible to more Australian households

Instead of relying on heavy rooftop storage systems and complicated plumbing, we asked a different question:

What if we could control the solar
power that homes already generate to
heat water
intelligently?

By combining modern solar technology with smart inverter control, iHot was designed to integrate with existing electric hot water tank systems and automatically prioritise solar energy when it’s available.

The result is a simpler, more compact design that:


Doesn’t require complete system replacement


Directs household solar energy
more wisely


Improves household energy independence


Avoids unnecessary complexity

Looking ahead

As energy systems continue to evolve, iHot aims to become the reliable solar hot water standard in Australian homes. By making smarter use of the energy we have for everyday needs, we’re helping households:

waste less energy

save more money

rely less on the grid

contribute to a more sustainable future

Smart solar hot water — made simple, reliable, 
and accessible for every home
