Using a solar water heater is good in basically any clyment that you may live in connect the outlet of the solar water heater to a tempering tank then use the water straight from the tempering tank during the wormer months and in the colder months turn on a tankless hot water heater they come in either propane, electric only heat the water your using at that moment and not 24 hours a day

Great learning for new installers and householders. Thanks for the resource
Manual boosting is fine in accordance with AS 3498 which specifies the length of time required to suppress bacteria growth at various temperatures. Therefore the tank temperature can drop below 60C. Clause 1.9.1 in As 3500.4 updates the existing Australian standard to allow for AS 3498 and manual booster switches for solar hot water.
