Solar Thermal

Why not use the sun to do what you like it to do, heat things up. We use hot water almost every day of our lives for taking a shower/bath, cooking food, washing our clothes, cleaning our homes, etc. Normally we don’t think much about how we get this done unless we run out. There is a simple way to use the sun to do this, saving us money and using less of our limited resources.

Solar panels or evacuated tubes can be mounted on a roof or as a standalone. These panels and tubes are incredibly efficient at absorbing the heat of the sun and transferring that heat to water running into your home or business. Water then flows down to a storage tank and through a heat exchanger, thus heating water for daily use. This storage tank acts as a battery, storing up the suns energy so that you can use it when needed. Systems like this are attached to a back-up water heating system in the event of cloudy days or excess hot water needs.
