Solar Hot Water Rebate Program Update: 19/02/2010
The Australian Federal Government today announced significant changes to current insulation and solar hot water rebates and to its green loans program. The Minister for the Environment, Heritage and the Arts Peter Garrett; announced today that the Home Insulation Program and the Solar Hot Water Rebate will be replaced by a new household Renewable Energy Bonus Scheme. The existing schemes will be discontinued as of close of business today. Under the new rebate scheme, householders rather than installers will claim a $1,000 rebate directly through Medicare for solar hot water systems and a $600 rebate for heat pump hot-water systems.

Stratco offers numerous, environmentally sound and technologically advanced ways to provide your home with all the hot water your family needs. A solar hot water system uses the radiant heat from the sun to heat water which passes through collectors located on the roof of a house. Heat pumps use the reverse of a refrigeration process, transferring heat from the air to a hot water tank on the ground.

During periods when there is insufficient heat available from the sun, the efficient gas boost heater or electric boost element will automatically provide all the heat necessary to ensure a continuous supply of hot water to your home.

Even in cooler southern parts of Australia, solar energy is able to supply up to 80 per cent of annual hot water energy needs. Though solar input is maximised when collectors are installed facing north, there is some flexibility in orientation, so almost all houses should have a suitable roof area for collectors.
