Heat Your Water with Solar
An Eddi diverter redirects surplus electricity from your solar PV system to heat your water, rather than exporting it back to the grid. This means more of your energy is used at home, increasing efficiency and reducing bills.
- Works alongside your immersion heater to give gradual, consistent heating
- Optimises self-consumption of solar energy
- Simple interface and optional app for remote monitoring
- Helps reduce reliance on traditional gas or electric water heating
With an Eddi installed, you’re making the most of every unit of electricity your solar panels generate.

What Our Customers Say
As a respected supplier to the Renewable Energy industry, we are keen to support the sector and the environment as a whole, by making the conscious move towards sustainability where possible within our business and leading by example in the manufacturing industry.
I had Suzie out in April to give me a quote for solar panels after the company did a presentation in my work place. I had been interested for some time but during the presentation it sounded as if it had become more affordable than when I first started looking. Suzie designed a system for us after doing a survey and looking over our electric bill for the year. I opted for 16 panels, inverter, 5kw battery and the Eddi hot water controller. The system was installed at the start of June. The installers were very professional, no wires visible and the system is hidden away. Within just a couple of hours the system was fully functional. I notice that there have been a few miserable days where it didn’t quite cover our electricity usage but most days it covers all of our needs and we also export plenty back to power Ni. Very happy with the system and start solar so far.
Recently installed 22 panels with start solar on a ground mount with an 8kW battery and a zappi car charger. Although we got of to a bad start, some delays initially, due to storms, materials, poor communication back and forth I eventually got through to Ben who quickly sorted the issues and I couldn’t be happier with the system. Deposit paid in December and system installed in March. Because off all the issues I had with the company I got a very healthy discount and a 200 euro donation to a charity of my choosing in Mayo. Guys came and done the work all in one day. All the lads on the ground were sound to deal with, very helpful and I would recommend them to anyone. I’ve been generating high levels and selling back to the grid since March.
From start to finish, my experience with start solar has been absolutely fantastic. The pricing process was simple, transparent, and stress-free — no hidden costs or confusing jargon. The initial visit to my home was professional and straightforward, giving me full confidence in their approach right from the beginning.
The installation itself was seamless. The engineers were punctual, polite, and took the time to explain everything clearly. It’s rare to find such a combination of technical expertise and genuine friendliness – they made the whole process a breeze.
A special thanks to Suzie, whose backup service has been second to none. She was always on hand to answer questions, provide updates, and ensure everything ran smoothly. Her customer service is truly exceptional.
I’d spoken to several other providers before choosing start solar, but none matched their level of service, friendliness, or value for money. I’ve already recommended them to friends and family — and with the significant cost savings I’m already seeing, I’ll continue to sing their praises!
Thank you, start solar, and especially Suzie — you’ve made switching to solar one of the best decisions I’ve ever made!
Andrew and team at start solar made the experience of getting solar energy into our home flawless.there workmanship was first class 👏. And all our questions were answered. The panels and hot water eddi were fitted two weeks ago and already we are seeing the benefits of the system. Long story short we would recommend the team at start solar 100%.
From start to finish I found Zaffy and his team extremely knowledgeable and helpful.
I had so many questions. I’ve learned loads throughout the process and always felt no question was too silly to not be answered. On the installation day everything went so well. The crew were efficient and friendly. I felt I received a very personal service and would highly recommend the team. For anyone still unsure how to proceed with Solar, you will be guided through the process at a pace that you can work with to achieve the best result for your home and your pocket.
