Am in AZ. Have a solar hot water system now.
Saved me 40 bucks per month.Cost was the same as a Home Depot regular electric water heater install. Now with new Federal tax credits, this will be my next install. Will reduce my e bill to zero. A much better investment that putting money in stocks, cd’s, etc.
Thats changing …
Thats changing everyday. 10 years from now it will be the norm. Just as USB, Sata drivers, laptops, LCD screens in place of CRT, hybrids, fully electric drive cars, underground geothermal air conditioning, dual pain glass windows, solar heating, instant electrical water heaters, and on the lost goes on.
Each I mention were once naysayed. Look at them now. All main stream.

that looks like a pretty big system. how many KW/hours are produced average per day? i know it says 3kw but is that max on a hot day. it would be more intuative to know the average kwh per day figure. thanx for the vid, peace
Solar seems like a …
Solar seems like a good option, But when you look at the cost of the systems, and the end payoff for the units, You are looking at at least 10 years before you get any benefit.
New and better solar is around the corner.
If you want to go green Cut your electric use.
Eliminate ghost power and use cfc bulbs, I have 2000 sq ft our average bill is $65.
Now thats Going Green. For you biggest benefit,Get rid of your old fridge, New fridge return of investment 1 – 2 years, we went from $40 month to $6

No, Personally, I realise that Feng shui is the ancient chinese art of removing money from the easily fooled, so frankly, if he’d used his solar power to reduce his fossil fuel consumption, i reckon that would have been a better move, but hey, its his choice and good luck to him. Why would i be “jealous much” ? – because i dont have a feng shui waterfall ?

way to be a dick gug. What do you want him to do? Use the power the city gives him to power the pump? Hes doing more than enough to save enery and if he wants to use other things with the solar than he will. Jealous much?

alot of roofers dont wear them.
kind of a bad paying job and dangerous

but a job is a job?
if i would have …
if i would have this installed what did you do which the roof tiles..? I see you take some out first do you place them back afther? Or do you drill small holes in them to place the basis for the panels? Thank you for the great videos.
For what its worth, …
For what its worth, we took the water pumping off-the-grid. We have 1KW of solar to batteries to 24v pumps.
The flowing water is actually very cool and now that it lucky solar water!
3KW Solar …
3KW Solar installation – fantastic.
Pissing all that power away on an ornamental waterfall – probably one of the daftest uses i’ve seen.
Its amazing that folks can be so fortunate, and yet so completely devoid of common sense.

I live in Australia and solar hot water is the only way to go.
It works in the background year in year out. I have no idea how much money I have saved with it over the 40 years I have been a home owner.

Bill.

I think solar …
I think solar electricity is the coolest thing. I own one panel the size of the panels being mounted which is 50 watts 14 volts at 3 amps. I have a few small ones too and used to charge up a car battery with it and run a power inverter in the house for fun and run the tv for 6 hours before it died. not quick enough charging for the run time though. this application here is needed. lots of money but pays itself off and gives dividends over time.
