Solar Hot Water for Multifamily & Apartment Buildings

Lower hot water bills and go green with solar thermal

Multifamily and apartment building owners often cover the cost of residents’ hot water. Solar hot water systems can reduce water-heating bills, insulate owners from rising fuel prices, and help owners go green by using solar energy, rather than fossil fuels, to heat residents’ water. 

SunWater Solar specializes in solar water-heating systems, and our experienced, knowledgeable staff can help determine what type of system best suits your property. Solar hot water systems drive business value by providing benefits such as:

  • Cost Effectiveness: Compared to other forms of renewable energy, solar thermal is highly economical and efficient. Compared to a solar photovoltaic (PV) system, a solar thermal system of equivalent energy output is almost seven times less expensive.
  • Reduced Emissions: Every day, millions of natural gas-powered water heaters release carbon emissions into our neighborhoods and atmosphere. Solar thermal is a proven technology that heats water with clean solar energy, greatly reducing emissions.
  • Green Marketing: Solar water-heating can help differentiate your property as a leader in the worldwide movement to use renewable energy.
