Solar Thermal (solar hot water)

We all need hot water to live. To take a shower, wash dishes, wash clothes, and maybe even heat the pool. For years it seems like the only way to get hot water is by getting a storage tank and paying for the electricity to heat it up. Now there comes solar thermal which is the fancy way of saying free hot water.

Why?

An investment in a solar water heater comes with a variety of benefits. By installing a solar water heater you can reduce the environmental impact of a conventional water heater by minimizing the cost of electricity or the amount of fossil fuels used. Efficiency is also a benefit associated with investing in a Solar Water Heater with “a typical household [meeting] 50 to 80 percent of their hot water needs.” Little to no maintenance is what consumers can expect after installation of a solar water heater.

Currently, the US Government is offering a wide number of incentives and rebates to many states for individuals looking to become more energy efficient or implement renewable energy within their household or business. With the amount of money saved on your average utility costs, as well as the rebates offered by your state, an average investor can expect to see a payback of their Solar Water Heater installation within a few years.

How it works....

The simple way of saying it is that the system takes in cold water heats it up and sends it back into the tank. Also known as Open Loop System. In this system, water that will be used throughout your home or business is directly heated by running within the copper pipes located within the solar collector.FL Green Energy offers clients installation of a Direct Solar Water Heater System.

And my Pool?
For many pool-owners, extending the life of your pool throughout the seasons usually comes at a steep price, with energy prices increasing on yearly basis. While there are other ways to increase the energy efficiency of your pool, such as investing in pool covers, installing a solar water heater would bring about a fast turnaround on your investment and help you save a significant amount of money in the long run.
