The Sun's Energy for Solar Hot Water Heaters

Sphere: Related Content
Most people today still use conventional water heaters, which can cost hundreds of dollars each year to operate and maintain. However, the big focus in the energy industry over the past decade has been renewable energy: clean, plentiful, and cheap. At first, sources of renewable energy was too costly to be an effective solution to the world's energy crisis, but frequent technological advances have made possible the dream of a world independent of oil and coal. To continue this trend, you can replace your conventional water heater with a state of the art solar hot water heater.

Any Climate

One of the most impressive features of solar hot water heaters is that they are quite versatile. They can be used in any climate, although there are different types for warm and cold climates to optimize their efficiency. For example, solar hot water heater models for colder climates use an antifreeze liquid to transfer heat energy to the water heater, while models designed for warmer climates skip the antifreeze because it wouldn't be necessary. This means that no matter where you live, you can purchase and install a solar hot water heater for your home.

Not only can you shave 10% of your energy bill off each month, but you will also be helping the environment out while you're at it. Think about it – you can easily save $25 off your energy bill each month and help the environment. It's a win-win situation that even if you can afford to pass up, you won't want to. So how hard is it to install a solar power water heater? You probably won't want to do it yourself, but you can expect to pay little more than a thousand at most to cover the cost of the heater and installation, so those savings will become even more apparent after about three years. Additionally, if you add the cost onto a mortgage, you'll be able to shave a few more dollars off in tax deductions.

Of course in an idealistic world, the first consideration for installing an environmentally-friendly appliance would be the environment and not money (although that's generally not the case). However, a solar hot water heater is both economical and environmentally helpful as you'll be releasing less carbon dioxide into the air. The sun is going to burn brightly for a few more million years, so it's about time that we start using it to provide cheap and infinite power. Without a doubt, such appliances will become even more efficient in the years to come, but that's hardly a reason to wait. Each month that you put it off, you're simply losing money that you could be saving with a solar hot water heater.
