Solar Water Heater Repair & Installation
The main dilemma for most homeowners when choosing a new water heater is to go standard or tankless. Important factors to weight when making these decisions will usually come down to the benefits and costs of each option. Another option to consider is going solar. For residents in South Florida, there is plenty of sunshine which can translate into huge savings down on energy bills.
Simple solar water heater systems may need maintenance as infrequently as every 3–5 years. Systems with electrical components usually require a replacement part or two after 10 years. We can service your solar water heater whether it is Open-Loop (Direct) or Closed-Loop (Indirect). Whether you want to go solar or currenlty have a solar water heater that needs repair, count on One Call Plumbing to help.
How Solar Water Heaters Work
As the Department of Energy states, solar water heating systems include storage tanks and solar collectors. There are two types of solar water heating systems: active, which have circulating pumps and controls, and passive, which don't.
Active Solar Water Heating Systems
There are two types of active solar water heating systems:
- Direct circulation systems: Pumps circulate household water through the collectors and into the home. They work well in climates where it rarely freezes.
- Indirect circulation systems: Pumps circulate a non-freezing, heat-transfer fluid through the collectors and a heat exchanger. This heats the water that then flows into the home. They are popular in climates prone to freezing temperatures.
Save On Your Enegy Bill & Help The Environment With Solar
When you go solar, one of the biggest benefits is saving on your energy cost. Since there is an abundance of sunshine in South Florida, this can translate to huge savings on your energy bills. There is also the corresponding reduction in pollution. A 50 percent reduction in traditional (emitting) energy use means a 50 percent reduction in CO2 emissions. So installing a solar water heater would reduce your hot-water carbon footprint by half. At the same time, you're conserving nonrenewable fuels for applications for which there are currently no easily available renewable energy sources.
