Solar Hot Water: The Final Frontier?

For six years now, I have contemplated and researched installing a solar hot water system for my home and clinic.
This past weekend at The Green Culture Festival, I found my solution:

Just yesterday, I ordered a solar water heater from Globe Solar Energy Inc.
Because this system uses tubes instead of flat panels, it captures the sun's rays at all angles - so I only need one! And because the heated water tank is on top of the panel, I don't need to buy an additional tank next to my rented hot water heater, so it's affordable!

My System Will Help Save The Planet, Of Course!

The best part is the system will displace 2.2 tons of carbon dioxide emissions per year. Mostly, I am doing this because generating the energy we want should be done without polluting our Planet! I look forward to the day when all my energy needs can be met renewably, from cooking to heating. Solar hot water heating is the next big step for me and I can't wait!

September 8 - The Big Day!

On Tuesday, September 8, an inspector will come in to do the required energy audit. Right after, the solar hot water heating system will be installed on the roof!
