  • Solar thermal technology (solar water heating) is currently the most affordable solar technology on the market.  A typical solar water heater for a family of four costs less than $4000 dollars after all of the incentives and rebates that are currently available (prices and incentives vary depending on where you live). 
  • The system is maintenance-free. Turn it on and leave it on.  No hassle and no worries.
  • You always have hot water - even if the sun hasn't been out for a week, because you still have your current hot water heater as a backup.
  • You instantly begin saving money and reducing your family's carbon footprint.

A properly sized solar water heating (solar thermal) system provides about 75% of your annual domestic water heating needs. In a typical household without a solar water heater, between a quarter and a third of your energy expenditures goes toward heating water.  Depending on what you currently use to heat your water (i.e., electricity, gas), a solar water heating system could pay for itself in as little as 5 years -- an incredible 15 - 20% return on your investment.  And after that, you have practically free hot water for your home... forever.

How Solar Water Heating Works - Solar water heating diagram/Solar water heater
(Diagram from This Old House.)

A solar water heating system consists of:

   (a) Solar Collectors are typically located on the roof or ground mounted on a rack.  They transfer the thermal energy from the sun to a heat transfer solution.  Collectors can be flat plate or evacuated tube.

   (e) Storage Tank is a super-insulated hot water tank that stores the sun's energy for later use.  Water in the tank receives the sun's energy from the heat transfer solution through a heat exchanger.  In some cases, your existing hot water tank can be used.

   (d) Automatic Control turns the (c) Pump on and off when necessary -- the system works completely automatically, nothing for you to do.
Attention PA residents:  Pennsylvania's Sunshine Program is now in waitlist status.  Rebates have recently been increased to an incredible 35% but are no longer guaranteed!  Find out more about the costs and returns.
