Solar energy is clean, renewable, durable,
low-maintenance and effective. It’s great
for the planet and our pocket books. —Mary Tappouni
To me it all comes down to dollars and cents.
Either pay yourself to generate your own electricity
or give your money to some power company
never certain what the cost will be. —Arlan Bartling
Solar is a good investment for the future –
as good as any other investment in terms of
monetary return. You save money every month
you don’t rent power from the utility company. —Paul Bremer
We immediately saw our electric bill go down
considerably. So the return on investment proved
a lot quicker than we expected. —Bill Croysdale
I don’t have to rely on the power company. I feel
secure knowing if I lose electricity, I’ll be just fine.
And I’m doing my part to conserve both
economically and environmentally. —Gail Greenblatt
Solar is the way to go if you want a clean
world and want to save money. Who knows the
future costs or security of energy? —Nelson Hellmuth
Solar Electricity (PV)
Photovoltaic systems convert sunlight into electricity to power your home or business. PV is quickly becoming popular as a reliable, low-maintenance, clean, low-cost energy alternative. Solar electricity allows you to be as energy independent as you choose, while lowering your utility bills and carbon emissions. It’s particularly popular with our customers in Florida, Georgia and the Caribbean where there’s an abundance of free sunlight. Solar panels come in a variety of styles for mounting on the ground or on rooftops.
Solar Water Heaters
Our customers love their solar hot water systems. Solar thermal technology has been perfected over many decades to provide a greater abundance of hot water than possible with electric or gas heaters – all with the sun's free energy. Because the initial investment is small and the monthly savings are large (reducing the average electric bill by 25%), solar water heaters provide a quick return on investment. A popular option for homes, offices and factories, solar water heaters offer low-cost, low-maintenance hot water year-round.
Solar Pool Heaters
Compared to gas or electric heaters, solar pool heaters offer the only affordable option for homeowners who want to enjoy their pools year-round. Pool owners throughout the Southeast and Caribbean swim comfortably ten months of the year, or more, with solar-heated water. Still greatly misunderstood, solar energy can easily heat your pool in the high 80s and low 90s – and yes, that’s how most of our customers like their pool water. Most homeowners simply can’t afford to maintain such temperatures using gas or electric heaters.
Solar Lighting
“Day-lighting” is a common term for harnessing natural light to illuminate internal spaces. By designing windows and other openings to work with reflective surfaces, we can bring in sunlight to maximize your visual comfort and reduce energy use. “Solar tubes” are a popular day-lighting product for both new construction and remodeled homes to dramatically brighten dim internal spaces. SunWorks also offers solar landscaping products for night-lighting in exterior spaces using free energy.
Solar Attic Fans
Proper attic ventilation is vital for reducing your heating/cooling costs and for releasing trapped moisture. Passive vents that rely on wind to circulate attic air have been a requirement in building codes for many years. Solar attic vents provide more effective results because they harness the sun’s free energy to assure constant air circulation with little maintenance.
