Can someone you me me how well solar hot-water heaters work? I heard and read about solar hot-water heaters but I am still confused. Apparently they are more affordable than a traditional photovoltaic panel system for electricity. Can anybody with a real experience give me more details about how well the system works, and how much it cost? How did you complement the system the cloudy winter days? I’ve heard about the tankless heaters.

At this point I am not looking for recommendation of contractors, I would rather learn from the experience of the homeowners who have the system installed.
Thanks!
