How Do Solar Water Heaters Work?
Solar water heaters are a brilliant example of using technology to harness nature's power for everyday needs. At their core, these systems capture sunlight and convert it into heat through a simple and efficient process. This is achieved using solar collectors, typically installed on your roof, which absorb the sun's rays. The heat these collectors gather is then transferred to water in a storage tank, warming it up gradually.
At The Solar Store, we install SunEarth solar collectors, a trusted name in solar thermal technology purpose-built for climates like ours here in the desert Southwest. Their flat plate collector design is ideally suited for Arizona's intense sunshine, delivering consistent and reliable performance year after year. And because no two homes are alike, our team tailors every system to your specific needs, ensuring you get the most out of Arizona's abundant sunshine.
What's remarkable about solar water heaters is they can work even on cloudy days, thanks to their ability to capture diffused sunlight. These systems can also come with a backup heating element to ensure you have hot water even when sunlight is scarce, giving you complete peace of mind. By making the switch, you're investing in a smart, sustainable solution that can significantly reduce your energy bills for years to come. Imagine enjoying a warm shower or doing the dishes with water heated by the sun, it's a small change that makes a big difference for both your wallet and the planet.

For people "starting from zero" this was a huge help to us.
“Katharine - Thanks to you and the team for getting our solar set up promptly and professionally. I don't have enough good things to say about Kevin, the teams who conducted the installations, and your own involvement. All our friends who got solar done (or tried) have horror stories about scams and unprofessional behavior; it put us off from trying this for a while. We were at first relieved and then very happy. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, professional and knowledgeable about the process, technology and government requirements. For people "starting from zero" this was a huge help to us.”- JDC
