I wish to set up a solar powered electric hot water heating system.  I would like it to be expandable, simple, safe.  It will be a ground mount system.   The goal is to use the power directly as it is produced.  It would be used for hot water in the winter and AC in the summer.  I have a rudimental understanding of solar set up.  I would like help with specifics panel sizes, inverter, battery setup, grounding, wire size, etc.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.  
Thanks,

    So how do you plan to keep the water usably hot when there is no sun?
