Solar hot water systems rely on a solar collector to collect the sun's energy and transfer it to water. Systems can be designed for any application that requires hot water. A typical residential system is designed to utilize solar as the primary heating source for a home's water heater. Such domestic hot water systems provide around 70% of the annual water heating requirements for a home with natural gas or electricity providing backup requirements. With hot water being one of the larger home energy demands, savings can be substantial. A system payback of less than 10 years is not unusual. Why buy a water heater when you can invest in a solar water heater?

A solar water heater is a clean energy appliance, reducing user CO2 emissions substantially. According to U.S. Department of Energy estimates, installation of a solar water heater will reduce the CO2 emissions of the average family by 75 tons over the systems 30 year lifetime.  CO2 savings can be the equivalent of taking a car off the road!
