From factories, to restaurants and personal care facilities, the sky is the limit for businesses who want to harness the power of the sun. Many business owners have increased their bottom line by installing a reliable, low-maintenance and cost-effective solar hot water systems.
Commercial hot water systems use solar arrays to collect energy from the sun. The arrays are most commonly roof mounted, but in some cases a suitable ground-mount solution can be employed when a roof area is unavailable. Once the energy is collected it is fed into a water storage tank. A closed loop system using non-toxic propylene glycol as a heat transfer liquid circulates through the water storage tank, heating the water for business use.
A Solar thermal system that produces the energy equivalent of 56,00 KWhrs, translates into almost 237,00 gallons of water heated annually. Many systems have a life expectancy of twenty years.
