The paper presents the results of experimental studies on the consumption of hot water, energy obtained from the solar installation in the production process and the degree of coverage of usable and final energy with solar collectors. Thermal energy measurements from solar collectors cover the measurement period from 2011 to 2017. During this period, the annual final energy obtained from solar collectors ranged from 1033-1576 kWh. Monthly and annual demand for usable and final energy for the demand for hot water is presented depending on the amount of hot water used. Monthly actual consumption of hot water in the measurement period ranged from 3.57-9.16 m3. During this period, the number of residents has changed from 3 to 5 people. Annual coverage of energy useful for heat and energy by solar panels in the years 2011-2017 fluctuated from 38.0%-63.9% and 25.2%-42.3% for final energy. Monthly energy coverage ranged from 5.5% to over 100%. Covering energy above 100% in practice means getting a higher temperature of hot water in the outlet valve than expected.
