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:

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

A better way forward

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.

our goal is to make solar hot water easier, more reliable, 
and accessible to more Australian households

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:
