Solar Water Heating

Solar water heating is a great way to generate hot water for your home by using the power of the sun. Contrary to popular belief, they can be used in any climate.

Solar water heating systems include storage tanks and solar collectors. They use panels to heat the water.  There are two types of solar water heating systems: active, which have circulating pumps and controls, and passive, which don't.

Passive solar water heating systems are less complicated and are are typically cheaper than active systems, but they're usually not as efficient as the active systems rely on electronic feedback to monitor performance.  The passive systems will tend to be reliable as they have less moving parts.

A solar water heater will save you money in the long run.  Some studies have shown payback in hostels to be as short as two years.  For normal homes, it may be a few more years but often shorter than you think.  For a new house or development, because you can put the cost of the heating system in the mortgage, you gain a few extra dollars a month in homeowners tax deductions and therefore its even a better deal.
