A Satisfied Customer with her Solar Hot Water PanelsA solar hot water system can lower your monthly energy bill by using the sun’s energy to heat your water, instead of oil, gas, or electricity. Solar thermal collectors absorb the sun's heat and transfer it to a tank for storage and subsequent use. The systems heat domestic hot water, swimming pool water, and can be used for space heating. There are industrial applications for these systems.
A typical solar hot water system includes an auxiliary energy source (electric heating element or connection to a gas/fuel oil central heating system) that is activated when there is insufficient sunlight. This ensures that hot water is always available.
