Are You Getting the Most Out of Your Water Heater?

Water heaters are one of those things you probably don't think much about unless you realize your water isn't getting as hot as you'd like. Water heating can actually account for 14-25% of the energy consumed in your home! If you think it's time to upgrade to a more efficient water heater, consider purchasing a solar water heater from leading Central PA residential plumbing contractor Haller Enterprises.

The Basics of Solar Water Heaters

Solar water heating systems contain two essential elements: the storage tank and the solar collector. As its name implies, the solar collector absorbs sunlight, which is converted to usable heat by evacuated tubes. The heat is then transferred to a header pipe, which serves as a heating source for the water that is pumped through it as it travels to the storage tank.

Solar Water Heaters Use Free Fuel

If you currently own a water heater that runs on gas, oil or electricity, you're at the mercy of the market conditions that determine the price of these energy sources. With solar water heaters, the energy source, sunlight, is available at no charge. As a result, solar water heaters can be the most inexpensive way to heat the water in your home.
