Solar Water Heaters

Solar hot water heating systems are a great way to effectively conserve energy and reduce your energy bill.

Contrary to popular belief, this is not a new technology. These systems have been used commercially for over a century now, with the first commercial water heater (the Climax Solar-Water Heater) going on sale in 1891 in the United States. By the year 1900, over 1600 houses in California were equipped with this solar heater.

Due to its effectiveness and low cost, the solar hot water gained popularity until, by 1941, more than half the population of Florida was getting its hot water this way!

Solar heating only lost its popularity as a result of lowered electricity rates, and an aggressive campaign by Florida Power and Light to increase electrical consumption. This was done by offering electric water heaters at bargain prices. Thus Florida’s production of solar hot water was brought to halt.

The United States is not the only country with a solar heating history. There are many other countries where it was once used, and has since fallen out of use – but not all of them. In fact, there are currently more than ten million Japanese households which heat their water using solar power. This is definite proof that it is a workable technology.
