Solar Hot Water Systems

THB Energy Solutions works with you to install the right solar hot water, or solar thermal, system for your home. Our comprehensive services include designing, installing and maintaining solar hot water systems. Finally, we will also help get you all of the incentives that are available for installing these systems on a federal, state and local level.

THB Energy Solutions can help you utilize the sun to provide you with free hot water. Installing an evacuated tube solar hot water system can offset more than half of your annual hot water use. Solar hot water heaters have a number of advantages: they work on overcast days, in colder weather, and the tubes can be installed and replaced individually. The evacuated tubes act like a giant thermos, allowing 93% of the sun's radiation in, but only 3 to 5% out. Additionally, evacuated tube solar systems are efficient enough to work in temperatures down to about -40°F. Get started now.

Keys to a Successful Installation

1. Proper Siting of the Solar Thermal System

A proper site analysis is the first key step to success. Solar hot water systems require south-, east-, or west-facing pitched roofs or flat roofs with minimal shade to work effectively. The size of the system is based on the number of people in the household. We generally design our systems to supplement from 50 to 75 percent of a home’s annual hot water needs. Get started now.

2. Get All Available Solar Thermal Incentives

Incentives make solar thermal a very cost effective way to reduce your carbin footprint. THB Energy Solutions fills out all forms and applications to make sure you take advantage of all tax credits, utility rebates, government grants, and low-interest financing to simplify the process for our clients. Present incentives cover 30% or more of the system cost.

3. Use Quality Solar Thermal Equipment
