How it Works 

1. Solar Panels Generate Electricity at your home 

Your PV solar array generates electricity consumed in real-time in the home, with any excess energy generally exported to the grid. 

2. A Special Clamp Detects Unused Energy and the Sender Signals to the Solar iBoost+  

Solar iBoost’s Sender and Clamp are rapidly installed at the household electricity meter.  The Clamp detects when excess energy is available, and the Sender wirelessly sends a signal to the Solar iBoost+ to activate water heating.

3. Solar iBoost+ Controls Delivery of Free Excess Energy To Your Immersion Heater 

Solar iBoost+ is installed next to the hot water tank and receives messages from the Sender.  When activated, it intelligently controls and adjusts the level of energy flowing to your immersion heater in line with the export levels as they rise and fall. 

… water is heated over the day using just the free solar energy.  In summer, this may deliver all the hot water your home demands; at other times, you may need to top up using your usual heating system or use the built-in Boost and Timed functions.

Easily Connected to an Existing Hot Water Immersion Heater 

If your home has a hot water cylinder (tank), this will likely include an immersion heater, even if gas is the primary energy source.  The immersion is usually powered from a fused switch which will become the supply to the Solar iBoost+, or your installer will fit the required local isolator.  The Solar iBoost+ is then used to control the immersion automatically from the excess PV energy and manually when you need additional hot water. 

The system operates by responding rapidly to the levels of import and export at the property according to the variable parameters of changing weather, energy consumption and generation.  These are constantly changing, and the electronic controller can process the information to ensure that only excess power is delivered for water heating when operating in standard automatic operation. 

Why Solar iBoost+™ 

  • The Solar iBoost+ is the UK’s best-selling PV immersion controller preferred by most solar installers. 
  • It saves you money by cutting water heating costs and reducing the use of your home’s boiler. 
  • Fitting a Solar iBoost maximises the consumption of the free solar energy generated at your property. 
  • Add the optional iBoost+ Buddy, and you can remotely monitor and control the Solar iBoost+ within your home. 
  • A built-in programmable cut-in threshold is flexible enough to combine use with battery storage systems to prioritise operation. 
  • Easy to install to new and existing systems in less than 30 minutes
  • Solar iBoost+ is made and backed by the UK’s oldest renewable energy company. 
  • 300 Solar iBoost UK installers. 

Watch your Savings Grow 

If you have invested in Solar PV for your home, you will already be aware that there are periods of “export,” when you can’t consume all the energy generated by the array. This energy flows back to the grid seamlessly, so you may be unaware of it. 

If your home has hot water storage with an immersion heater, then Solar iBoost+ can be installed and save you more money on heating bills in less than 1 hour! 

Solar iBoost’s built-in display means you can watch your savings grow; press the display button to see Saved Today, Saved Yesterday, Saved 7 Days, Saved 28 Days and Total Saved readings. 

Water Heating Controls at Your Finger Tips 

Solar iBoost+ also lets you control your immersion heater using full grid power.  This is useful for topping up if your hot water cylinder is an electrically operated system.  It incorporates two types of heating controls. 

Boost – gives an instant ‘Boost’ of full grid power to the immersion in timed increments.  Each button press adds 15 minutes of grid power operation up to a maximum of two hours.  When the immersion thermostat’s temperature is reached, the Boost function stops automatically if achieved before the selected full-timed period. 

Timed Functions are programmable on a 5-day / 2-day timer basis with two times per day available.  

Timed Function Seasonal Programmes are interchangeable at the press of a button, enabling you to change from Winter to Summer settings quickly.
