The sun is an efficient source of energy for heating water. A solar water heating system utilizes the sun’s heat energy during the day to heat the water for your home. This process is environmental friendly and cost effective. A solar water heating system will eventually pay for itself, and drop your energy bill significantly.
- A Typical Solar Water Heater Installation Can Supply 50%-70% of a Household’s Hot Water Usage
- System Lifetimes are 20-30+ Years
- Solar Hot Water Systems Qualify for a 30% Federal Tax Credit and for State Rebates
- Typical Payback Periods (tax incentives mean even faster payback than listed):
- With Propane Backup: ~4 years
- With Electric Backup: ~5 years
- With Natural Gas Backup: ~8 years
We recommend and often install Butler Sun Solutions Solar Water Heating Systems. The system includes a solar electric panel to power the pump. It can also be installed with your existing water heater.
The Control box is solar powered and monitors the water temperature. If the sun is not shining, it will stop pumping water and switch back to your original water heating system.
We can help you find the best solutions for your unique situation. We can also calculate how much money you will save, and how many years it will take to pay off the cost of the solar water heater with energy bill savings.
