Thermal Solar Water Heater
Thermal solar water heaters are gaining in popularity and with good reason. Here are some of the benefits of tapping into the power of nature.
1. Although the initial start-up costs are greater for a solar water heating system, the fuel (the sun) is free. As a result over the lifetime of the system it is likely to be more economical than using propane, electricity, fuel oil and sometimes even natural gas (depending on where in the USA you get your natural gas).
2. Some states offer tax benefits, providing a further economic incentive.
3. There is also a major environmental benefit. Harmful emissions like carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the atmosphere by fuel driven systems. Not only does this affect ones local environment, there is also the wider adverse impact on the greenhouse effect, as carbon dioxide helps to trap heat in the upper atmosphere.
4.Your solar water heater will function even during a power outage.
5. Solar water heaters can be used in other ways apart from in the home. For example, they can be used for swimming pools and car washes.
In summary, by harnessing the natural power of the sun, not only will you be saving, it could also have a major positive impact on the environment.
