1. Solar Hot Water Is Unproven & Unreliable
The reality is that solar energy (particularly solar hot water) is the oldest and most reliable form of renewable energy available. While PV (solar electric) systems are currently the most prevalent, solar hot water and solar heating systems are quickly catching up and increasing popularity. Because of their simplicity, reliability and low cost, solar hot water systems are fast becoming a popular choice with home and business owners in all climates (even cold and cloudy northern climates where solar hot water systems significantly outperform solar PV and other renewable energy systems).
2. Solar Hot Water Systems Don’t Work In My Area
Actually, this is one of the biggest misconceptions about solar hot water. Our solar thermal partner company, SunMaxx, has been designing and installing solar hot water and solar heating systems in northern climates (like Upstate New York, Maine and more, for nearly a decade). When the sun is out, these systems produce hot water in any climate…even during the winter time.
3. Solar Hot Water Systems Are Too Complex
Actually, solar hot water systems are incredibly simple. The solar collectors heat a mixture of glycol and water, which is used to heat the water within your hot water heater / storage tank. A simple controller handles all of the operations of the system. And, if not enough hot water is being produced to meet all of your needs, your current water heater will kick on automatically to take up the slack.
4. Solar Hot Water Systems Are Too Expensive
Simple solar hot water systems can actually cost as little as, or around the same amount, as a new traditional water heater. When you take into account Federal and state incentives as well as any additional rebates you qualify for and the energy savings over the first year, a solar hot water system can actually have a lower 1-year cost than a new gas or electric water heater.
5. Applying For Tax Credits Is Too Complicated
Actually, this is really simple. Federal credits and most state incentives can be applied right on your annual income taxes, and your SunMaxx Certified installer can help you identify the correct forms. To ensure that you get the most out of your rebates, you may want to have your usual accountant ensure that everything is tallied and itemized correctly.
6. All Solar Hot Water Installers Are Equal
The reality is that, like in everything, there are good solar installers and bad solar installers. To ensure that you get a great professional installation, Silicon Solar can help you locate and work with a SunMaxx Certified solar hot water system installer. SunMaxx has trained and certified more 3,000 of the nation’s best solar thermal installers over the past 5 years and now you can take advantage of this nationwide installer network to maximize the benefit from your new solar hot water system.
