Save energy with solar water heating |
Bea Day Plumbers can help you save energy and give you a renewable source of hot water heating by installing a solar water heater for you. Solar water heating systems include solar collectors and storage tanks. Generally, a conventional water heating system is used as a backup for cloudy days. This could be a tankless water heater.
When deciding whether or not to install a solar hot water system, you need to do the following steps. Let Bea Day Plumbers help you determine: |
|
|
- Your solar access. Solar access is the amount of unobstructed, direct sunlight that is available where the solar panels will be located. Bea Day Plumbers has a Solar Pathfinder® that can help you determine this.
|
- Decide what kind of solar collector you want to use. For this climate, you can install either flat panel or evacuated tube solar collectors. For more information, see the US Department of Energy article: Solar Water Heaters.
|
- Determine the correct system size, compare efficiencies and system costs. Bea Day Plumbers can help you with this.
|
- If you are replacing an existing water heater, determine whether you have enough space in the mechanical room for a water storage tank.
