Solar water systems can provide hot water for your home, or heat the water in your pool. Or you can choose both! We have been installing hot water heaters fueled by the sun, and warming swimming pools with solar energy for three decades in Florida. You have never had better technology to choose from. You may never again see the financial incentives to “go solar”. You will never again pay a utility bill swollen by frequent showers or a cold snap.

Solar water heaters eliminate the frustration of running out of hot water after only two people in your home have showered. You can confidently get into the shower even if the dishwasher is running. Your clothes washer doesn’t compete with the dirty dishes for enough hot water. Solar water systems are designed to hold a full day’s worth of hot water, to make sure you have enough when the sun sets. In addition, water heated by the sun is hotter than conventional temperatures, so you use less in the shower or bath.
- An average family spends a thousand dollars a year to shower and wash clothing and dishes. Sun is free! You are not spending that money for 15 to 20 years!
- The sun does not pollute the air or water. In an average year in Florida you can save the equivalent of 11.4 barrels of oil – that is more than the average car uses. Your “green” contribution includes reducing your carbon footprint by more than 10,000 pounds annually. You do your part to cut dependence on foreign oil and fossil fuels.
- You are eligible for a federal tax credit of up to 30% of the cost of solar water systems for heating water. In addition, there are state rebates of $500 available.
Solar pool heating will pay for itself in 1.5 to 7 years, according the federal energy experts, who call it the most cost-effective of the solar water systems available today.
- Many homeowners simply cannot afford to spend $300-$600 to keep swimming pool water warm during the three months of a Florida winter.
- Units for warming pools cost next to nothing to operate (a small electrical pump is all that is required, and it too, is available in a solar-powered model.)
Solar water systems for home or pool utilize the same concept: cold water is pumped to the solar panels (called collectors) installed on your roof. As it passes through, the water is heated, and then returned to either a tank in the home or to the swimming pool. The hot water tank holds enough for 24 hours of available hot water. Homeowners generally prefer to maintain pool water temperature at an average of 80°, but it can be cooler or warmer as you prefer.
Solar water systems let you save more than you pay
If your fuel savings are more than $15 a month, federal calculations indicate you immediately are saving more per month than you are paying if you were making monthly payments on the initial cost of the equipment. This calculation includes taking advantage of tax credits and rebates.
