Thermal
Solar water heating is a simple, straight-forward technology that can
reduce your home’s total energy use up to 20%.
Our dependence on fossil fuels has led to sky-high energy prices and
serious environmental problems. But at the
Free
Energy Corporation, we make it easy to tackle rising utility
rates and worsening environmental problems with solar water heating
systems that heat water for your home using the clean, renewable power
of the sun.
Save Money – Conventional water heating can account for nearly 25% of
your home’s total energy use, but you can slash these costs up to 80% by
using a solar water heating system.
Increase Your Home’s Value – Homes with solar water heating systems
grow in value up to $10,000 for every $500 in annual utility savings.
Decrease Pollution – Reduce your consumption of fossil fuels and lower
your contribution to global warming, smog, and acid rain.
How to Use the Sun to Heat Your Home’s Water
Solar Water Heating Systems are Simple, Compact, and Durable
Since a solar water heating system doubles as a home improvement and a
smart investment in the future, we’ve designed our systems to be simple,
compact, and reliable.
Simple – Solar water heating systems need almost no maintenance, aside
from replacing the heat transfer fluid every three to five years.
Compact – Typical systems require only 64 ft2 of roof space and are
built with solar collectors that measure only 4’ x 8’ x 3”-(Two solar
collectors).
Durable – Solar collectors are protected from extreme temperatures, are
optimized for year-round performance, and have life spans of 30 years or
more. |
