This is our amazing Heatwave Solar Storage Heating System. A first for Australia, it allows owners with Rooftop Solar to heat larger spaces and reduce heating costs using free energy from the sun. And when there’s not enough sun, it uses cheaper off-peak power to top up so you are never cold. Designed for larger living spaces and to reap the benefits of bigger rooftop solar systems.

It is able to heat the room up quickly and has more capacity for larger areas. Suits homes where the occupants are away during the day and need instant warmth before and after work, for example. An ideal replacement for gas heaters in living rooms.

The Heatwave heater uses a low noise fan to deliver the heat from the core of the heater to the room. The fan cycles on and off to meet the room heating loads based on the wall thermostat set point. (It will let some heat migrate into the room even when the fan is off, but mostly relies on the fan to maintain the room warmth).

Redirecting and storing solar energy on-site makes more economic sense than selling it cheaply back into the grid and then buying it back during peak tariff periods when the maximum level of daily heating energy is usually required.

The Heatwave system requires external controls to manage the power input and also the room temperature. A range of Heatpac accessories are available for these functions. Alternatively, customers may prefer to use controls provided by the solar installer, such as appliance management accessories. Customers may also choose their own room controllers such as a Google Nest ™ thermostat or a Smart Home automation product. We can advise on the suitability of all 3rd party controls. Ideal for larger living areas, offices, cabins, school rooms, apartments, B&Bs.
