Domestic hot water heating is the second largest energy expense in a home after space heating and cooling. In this region of the US an optimally sized solar hot-water heating system can easily provide from 65% to 70% of a typical household’s needs in the winter and up to 100% during the summer.
A solar thermal system can be several times more efficient than a solar electric system at capturing and converting solar energy and equally valid upgrades to a home Read more
To meet the demand of EnergyWise homeowners looking to cut costs for domestic hot water heating. We install a range of flat panel and evacuated tube solar collectors providing high year-round efficiency.
Inside the home the system is integrated with your existing hot water supply. In most cases customers opt to add a tank-less water heater, to cover the situations when the solar collector cannot match the demand.

Solar hot water makes especially good sense for businesses because its properties match the building’s usage cycle. Where the highest demand is during the day, when the collectors output is also at its highest. Businesses can save 40% - 80% on their hot water energy bills by installing a solar hot water heating system.
Even in the Western NY region solar hot water systems make good sense for pool heating. Their efficiency in collecting energy in the Spring and Fall months will extend the usage season of your pool, with little operational expense. Solar hot water systems can be used successfully for space heating in certain circumstances. We also integrate solar hot water heaters with geothermal systems to take optimal advantage of their different characteristics.
