Introducing Solahart PowerStore®, Australia’s first solar-smart electric water heater.
A Solahart PowerStore® system takes excess energy from your solar power system and uses it to gradually heat water, rather than allowing it to be fed back into the grid. Like a battery, it stores energy – but it’s more affordable.
Solahart PowerStore® is not a standalone water heater as it is designed to work with both new and existing solar power systems. Combining a Solahart PowerStore® system with a compatible Home Energy Management System (HEMS) will result in greater savings.
Australian households and businesses are increasingly embracing solar technology, with more than 3 million homes fitted with rooftop solar panels.
However, many homeowners are not harnessing the full potential of their solar power systems.
A large proportion of energy is generated when it’s not needed in the middle of the day. In this case, the excess energy is sent back to the grid for minimal financial return.
Connecting a home battery and a Solahart PowerStore® solar-smart electric water heater to your solar power system allows you to store your unused energy so you can use it when you need it (at night, on low-sunlight days, when utility rates are more expensive, or during blackouts).
Adding a Solahart Energy Management Unit helps you more actively manage how you consume energy throughout your home.
Solahart can offer you a total integrated energy solution including world-leading solar panels and inverters, alongside a full range of home energy storage and management products.
If you already have solar power installed, Solahart can retro-fit your existing system to add battery storage, a Solahart PowerStore® and an Energy Management Unit to maximise your solar investment.
The Solahart PowerStore is suitable for all types of households with different models avaliable.
We can provide an estimate specific to your requirements as part of our free in-home assessment.
The Solahart PowerStore has a water tank volume of 250 or 315 litres.
It has a boost capacity depending on the model for 50 or 136 or 162 litres.
The Solahart PowerStore comes in two sizes:
At 250L: 1,395 mm high, 640 mm wide and 680 mm deep. (1.395 metres x 0.64m x 0.68m)
or
At 315L: 1,640 mm high, 640 mm wide and 680 mm deep. (1.640 metres x 0.64m x 0.68m)
The Atmos-Frost Heat Pump is covered by a 10-year tank warranty, from Solahart, for peace of mind.

We’ll explain these further during the free in-home assessment.
Conventional electric water heaters draw maximum power when their heating element is switched on. This usually happens in the morning and evening when solar panels are not fully productive, so hot water is mainly heated by power from the grid rather than using solar energy. PowerStore® monitors your electricity usage during the day and then diverts any excess solar power that is not being used by household appliances towards your water heater, rather than allowing it to be fed back into the grid.
TWO-STAGE WATER HEATING
A specially designed two-stage water heater ensures quick recovery and reliable supply by maintaining a reserve of hot water even on cloudy days.
TRIPLE-BLADE HEATING UNITS
An innovative variable-power heating unit is designed to claw-back excess solar power rather than sending it back to the grid, so you can make the most of your solar energy.
SMART CONTROLS
Advanced tank temperature sensing and powerline communications technology allows intelligent home energy management
with no additional cabling requirements.
LARGE THERMAL ENERGY STORAGE
PowerStore® holds up to 315 litres of water which is large enough for families and equates to approximately 13kWh of thermal storage capacity for your excess solar power.
