Didn't know of the different types so will run that by the plumber. I know I've been quoted for 32 tubes and a 315l storage tank.

Thanks again,

You would be better off spending the money on more panels and an inverter purely to run the hot water.
Then simply set to heat during the day when the sun shines.


PV panels are so cheap now and the convection hot water systems are expensive and at least when the hot water is hot you can then feed the grid with the excess PV panels output.

Works for me....
