Hi first time and question here.
I have been reading and watching with interest info on hydro.
I was wondering if it's possible to have the hydro system just directly running a water heater 24/7 which is circulated through our central heating system. It gets cold in the winter months and the idea of having radiators running 24/7 would be Great. Thought this would avoid initial battery cost/ setup etc.

Thanks
 
Getting the right voltage stingers and thermostats for the water heater would be the biggest thing. After that the hydro controller would just see the stingers as a "battery" that always needs charging. The summer months would be a waste maybe if you weren't able to use that hydro power for other loads as you're not likely to be heating the house much then.
