solar hot water is generated from the heat of the sun (solar electricity is generated from light). you would need to make sure that you had an alternative way to heat the water in the less sunny times. if you have a fuel stove (gas, oil or wood for example) it is possible to have the water plumbed through the stove to use that heat to boost the water temperature when needed. I lived for a while with solar electricity and solar hot water channeled through the wood stove, but if you have to have electric boosters it can become quite expensive and usually the solar heaters are more expensive than other options. I dont know what makes and model you have available there, but make sure that the release valves are readily available because they fail every five to ten years and you will need to replace it.
