Sunz specialises in pumped solar water heating systems, which are proven to be the most efficient form. We can provide open, closed or drainback systems to suit any sized hot water demand. We use high performance flat plate solar collectors out of Europe in our systems, which provide long lasting and reliable hot water delivery.
Heating water consumes large amounts of energy. Approximately 30% of the average home’s energy consumption is used to heat water. Heating water directly with solar energy is the most efficient form of solar. Up to 80% efficient versus solar power at approximately 20%.
Sunz Solar Energy Specialists was formed in 2000 to offer clients energy-efficient renewable energy solutions. Energy costs are rising and have been doing so for many years. The hydro lakes always seem to be in some state of emptiness, there’s no new oil and gas exploration allowed, and New Zealand imports coal from Australia just to keep our lights on.
In the early days, solar water heating was the only real financially viable renewable technology so most of Sunz systems we built around highly efficient solar water heating products from Europe and the USA. Technical improvements and cost reductions in solar power and battery products over the last 10 years have these systems now not only financially viable for most New Zealand households and business, but actually the preferred option.

Sunz expertise is in offering energy-efficient solutions tailored to the clients’ requirements. We assess what the client wants to achieve and provide an integrated solution to meet that requirement, often combining multiple energy sources and technologies in our systems. While our systems are primarily renewable energy-based, we can integrate with almost any other energy source, grid power, gas, diesel, heat pump, wood, or waste process heat.
So whether it's providing electricity to power your home or business, or heating your home, your domestic hot water, swimming pool, or spa, we can offer a solution for you.
