My wife Catrin and I love the solar hot water heater we installed in February of 2007. It has given us reliable service and very hot water.
I've told growing numbers of people about the virtues of using solar energy to heat hot water as the easiest way of reducing our need for fossil fuels.
The thought struck me that it would help for people to see how painless the installation process was and how little space the solar panel collector consumes on the roof.
The solar hot water heater installation reduced our monthly utility bill by 25%. What kind of investment is a solar hot water heater?
A comparable solar hot water heater system on most any home with decent southern exposure and 2 adults using hot water would cost approximately $5,000.
With tax incentives currently available, our return on investment (ROI) period will be about 7 years but of course, the smiles we derive from knowing that we heat our water without causing air pollution are priceless!
