Because Solar is a new industry, people are skeptical. It's the same with any industry though, that you get what you pay for.
Here is a picture of an installation that our plumbers did:

Notice the lagged pipes, colorbond capping and in roof pipework? that's all extra labour to make the system look good and work properly.

I don't like that system.
With the storage tank at ground level...sure easy to install but..
The rocket scientist who designed it didn't realize that heat rises???
It relies on an electric motor to keep circulating the hot water from the panels to the tank.
The old fashioned units had the tank above the panels and used free thermo-siphoning to move the water.
Just more to go wrong and I'll bet you i won't be able to get the little re-circ motor after a few years when it craps itself...
Not for me....sorry.
