This week we installed a Rinnai close coupled solar hot water system with a 330 litre tank and two Excelsior panels on side pitch brackets for a tenanted property.

The brackets are especially made to tolerate high winds so in Perth you don’t have to worry about the wind pulling your hot water system off the roof.
You can also get reverse pitch brackets. Here they are on another 330 litre system we installed a couple of years ago in the Perth foothills:
