Solar Thermal Water Heating
Whether looking to replace an old water heater or just considering an upgrade to an existing one, the decision to buy a solar water heater is one of the smartest options for heating your home's water. Solar water heating systems - also called “solar thermal systems” - are efficient water heaters that lower your utility bills and also add value to your home.
Save Money
A solar water heating system will save you money every month on your utility bills. And because you're harnessing the sun's clean energy, you're protected from the rising costs of energy.
Tax Credits
Solar water heating systems qualify for federal and state tax credits. In most cases, tax credits take care of almost half the cost of the system!
Save Energy
Going solar means using less non-renewable sources of energy. In most cases, a properly installed solar water heater can meet about 75% of your family’s hot water needs, meaning that’s energy you won’t need from the utility. Plus, you're taking advantage of a sustainable source that will be here for years to come.
Reduce Carbon
Installing a solar water heater is the equivalent of eliminating 19,000 lbs of harmful carbon emissions from entering the atmosphere. Plus you'll feel good knowing you're using clean, renewable energy from the sun to heat a majority of your home's water - which means you'll be using very little (if any) power from traditional utility sources.
Solar Pool Heating
Have you ever wished you could swim for a few extra months out of the year? Heating your outdoor pool with solar energy not only extends your pool's swimming season by keeping the water warmer for a longer period of time, it minimizes your ecological footprint by taking advantage of a renewable resource. Great for you and the environment!
If you're already heating your pool, solar makes a great economical choice compared with both gas and electric pump pool heaters. Solar pool heating also requires little maintenance and is very low in operating costs.
