What are the benefits of a solar water heater?  
   
1.
Reduce Energy Costs
 
By installing a SWH system, a typical household can meet 70 percent of their hot water needs.  
   
2.
Improved Environment  
Reduced demand for fossil fuels will improve the environment by reducing air and water pollution as well as the heat-trapping gases that cause global warming. And though they cost a little bit more up front to install, a carbon free SWH system will save consumers money in the long run as the fuel source (the sun’s energy) will always be free.  
   
3.
Increase The Value of the Property  
  With the solar water heating system installed and operated, the property value will be increased.
