There are others google them. try solar thermal systems and see what you get
These guys have good complete systems and a good reputation. whatever parts they don’t include can be obtained at any hardware store
You can assist your water heater with this, or go to tubing to do this..you will need panels, batteries, inverter..etc…check your yellow pages for a solar store..we have a couple around here..they can help you in your decision.
It is unlikely to save you any money. The capital cost is too much to recover from water costs. It does not add value to the property in the UK where it is too cold to make a lot of difference over time.
We are looking to buy a house… it is a foreclosure and the best house we could get for the money we are approved for.. but it has some vertical cracks in the walls… we are having someone look at the foundation and tell us whats going on. But I didnt know if anyone out there had experience with this… our realtor said they might need to jack it up and put piers under it to keep it from shifting anymore… when you stand on the 2nd story hall wall you can feel yourself kind of lean…. not bad but if you think about it you notice it. Just wondering how much it would cost to repair?

it has a few diagonal cracks like at the corner of the door… and then the others are along the seems of walls one on the seem of the ceiling.. and then a couple around the fire place…
you need to locate your local solar company. they can sell you a system. i work with Enerworks, a company out of canada. you can contact a company like this and they will refer you to a local dealer for purchase.
Solar thermal works well on homes, ive installed over 70 systems, saving customers at least 20% on monthly bills and 30% on heating bills (hot water coil in furnace return)
