Solar Thermal

Solar Hot Water (SHW) is the least expensive renewable energy technology available that will quickly reduce home energy consumption. With a system life expectancy of over 30 years, a SHW system pays for itself many times over in energy savings, while adding value to your home.

A typical SHW system will, over its lifetime, displace up to 71.5 tons of CO2 if replacing an electric system, and up to 10.5 tons of CO2 if replacing a natural gas system.

Solar Thermal System Advantages:

  • Solar Thermal technology is the oldest and most commonly used renewable resource worldwide
  • SHW systems are versatile; they can be integrated with Domestic Hot Water (DHW) systems, as well as for space heating (i.e.: radiant floor heating and forced air systems), hot tubs and swimming pools.
  • Solar collectors typically carry a 10-year warranty, and will produce more energy over its lifetime than was required to manufacture it.
  • SHW systems can provide a large percentage (up to 80% of a household's yearly hot water demand depending upon local climate conditions and the size of the system).

How it Works:
Solar Heating harnesses the power of the sun to provide heat for water, space heating and swimming pools. Active systems are specifically designed to utilize the heat generated from sunlight by taking the power of the sun and amplifying it. Solar collectors are at the heart of solar thermal systems. The collector absorbs the suns light energy and changes it into heat energy, and transfers this heat energy directly to a storage system or interior space.
