Your water heater is probably not the topic of much thought or discussion around your household. Unless it breaks down, of course. Despite being one of the quieter and more unobtrusive systems in your home, your water heater is a work horse of an appliance. Every time you turn on the hot water somewhere in your house, your water heater immediately springs into action to supply it. If you’re using a storage tank water heater, as most people are, then your water heater is actually working around the clock to keep hot water available to you.
While this style of operation is great news for you, it also happens to consume a fair amount of energy. Hundreds of dollars can be wasted every year on keeping water heated that you don’t need at the moment. If you’re interested in stopping that waste and cutting down on your home’s operating costs, then a solar water heater might be just the thing for you.

What Is a Solar Hot Water Heater?
A solar water heater is just like a regular water heater, save that it gets its power from the sun rather than from the electrical grid. That’s a bit of an oversimplification, but it works. There are actually several different kinds of solar water heaters, each using solar energy in a different way. Some are passive systems, using gravity and direct sunlight to heat the water before distributing it. Others are active, indirect systems. These use solar panels to convert solar energy into electricity, which is then used to power a traditional water heater. The type of water heater you have installed should fit your specific situation, so always consult with a professional before making a decision.
The Benefits of Solar Water Heating
Is solar water heating really that much cheaper than regular water heating? Yes! How much money you save with your solar water heater is entirely up to you. If you are committed to saving as much money as possible on water heater operating costs, you can even install a system large enough to power it completely. Such a system would pay itself off in a few years, and all savings after that would go directly into your pocket. You can absolutely save a substantial sum of money by utilizing solar water heating.
