A system for solar assisted water heating provides hot water to a user at a lower cost, higher energy efficiency, and with a quicker response time than conventional systems, reducing energy losses, and improving user comfort. The basic architecture includes four main components: a solar collector, a heat exchanger, an in-line heater, and a control system. A transient heat profile of a first temperature in a primary loop is measured while a first flow generator G1 is active for the primary loop. Solar assisted heating of water in a secondary loop is provided based on: a flow of water in the secondary loop; a current first temperature; and the transient heat profile of the first temperature by activating: the first flow generator in the primary loop and an in-line water heater in the secondary loop. |
